================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Dervish Gandiva is a refit prototype developed in the early 3020s by the former NAIS
    engineer Dr. Dr. Aravinda Malik Singh in cooperation with Kallon Industries as a fire
    support Mech for deep-raid operations. The Gandiva is currently field tested by the Jodipur
    Rangers mercenary company led by Major Indra Singh Malik.

Capabilities:
    The Gandiva is a radical design focussing on the Dervish‘s main role of long-range fire
    support in the context of extended operations behind enemy lines. The Gandiva is able to
    deliver twelve volleys of up to 40 long range missiles before needing to reload. The novelty
    ammunition storage system in the lower arms allow a quick field reload without the
    assistance of a support unit. Another unique feature of the Gandiva is its use of 8
    Federated 5-Shots LRMs instead of a combination of larger weapon systems. This makes the
    Gandiva more resilient against internal damage and allows the pilot to easily manage the
    Mech’s heat to sustain an efficient rate of fire. Kallon industries provides the Gandiva
    with the proven Tracking and Targeting system of the Rifleman making it an excellent Anti
    Air platform.
