OVERVIEW
The Exo-Suit project was started by the Davion New Avalon Institute of Science as a sort of test bed for new technologies and manufacturing techniques some time in the early 3050s.
Responding to feedback from Rabid Fox and Loki teams testing the Commando Exo-Suit, decrying a lack of long-range firepower, the NAIS immediately set to work on a long-range fighter. After several months of intensive work, they finally finished their designs on the Barrett Sniper Weapons Suit.
CAPABILITIES
Designed to provide cover for squads of Commando Exo-Suits, the Barrett Sniper Weapons Suit, or simply the Barrett, mounts a single LRM tube on its arm. The missile it fires is more than capable of removing the odd machine gun nest or guard house that might be impeding the progress of the rest of the squad. It is also quite good at sowing confusion in the target compound, destroying unarmored targets and providing a distraction for the approaching Exo-Suits.
The Barrett is just as fast as the Exo-Suit squad it supports, utilizing the same "bounding" system for ground travel. Unfortunately, the suit lacks any Jump Jets, as their inclusion would severely reduce the amount of ammunition the suit can carry.
DEPLOYMENT
Being such a new design, the Barrett has only begun to be fielded, and whether the design will be worthwhile remains to be seen.
PERSONAL NOTE: This design, like the other two in the Exo-Suit program, would be next to useless in a CBT scenario. I imagine they are much more useful in Mechwarrior or Battletroops games, where the game deals more in the minutia of warfare.
