==Overview:==
     With the recent revival of assumed antiquated aircraft designs, like t
Lyran Stuka dive bomber. Tanker crews have been taking an ever increasing 
losses do to conventional fighter craft. This early on forced more expensiv
aerofighters to respond by flying CAP or by assigning mech lances to compan
of armor.
     The Davion armored calvery division has responded with the Armored Tan
Anti-Aircraft series of support vehicles. Each vessel is designed for one s
purpose, to provide tank colums with air suppression.
    

==Capabilities:==
     To achive its roll two things were needed, firerpower and detection. T
two things are supplied thru three vehicles all based on the same chassie a
engine. Lightly armored compared to MBT's the ATAA has enough protection to
prevent destruction do to straffing fire.
     The major key to the ATAA's success is the fact it never opperates out
of four vehicle lances, unless one is destroyed in combat. They deploy on t
inside of the outter edges allowing for quick responce, but being supplied 
cover from enemy ground fire.
     Every lance is tied together with a C3 computer, quickly relaying firi
solutions to there fellow units. Meaning that no air unit is no farther the
the closest unit. Resulting in anywhere from four to twelve units firing th
guns at incoming fighters.
     This is the heart of the ATAA. There weapons very from type to type. 

==Variants:==
     The Slave Type mounts twin Rotary 30mm Autocannons in a turret, slaved
a targeting computer that further refines the firing data of the C3 system.
Allowing for an impressive amount of Anti-aircraft shells rising to meet an
aircraft that strays close enough to the firer zone.
      The Lance Master Unit mounts twin 30mm Ultra Autocannons in a turret,
slaved to a targeting computer that further refines the firing data of the 
system. The Lance Master unlike the Slave Type mounts the Master Computer, 
controlling all data feed to each lance member.
      The Company Master Unit mounts twin 30mm Flak Autocannons in a turret
The Company Master unlike the Slave Type mounts the Master Computers for th
entire company. These dual processers link together the company into a gian
Anti-aircraft network.
      These are only known variations to the ATAA chassie.
