Overview:
Because of the impressive production of Ceres Metals Industries, the Vindicator
has become a common 'Mech in the units of the Capellan Confederation. Though the
Vindicator's capabilities might not justify such wide deployment, the design does
have many advantages. The recovery of Star League technology has given Ceres
Metals a chance to correct many faults of the company's biggest product.
Perhaps the biggest problem for the VND-1R has been heat buildup. Ceres
Metals engineers plan to install double heat sinks, giving the VND-3L model
greatly improved ability to dissipate heat, despite the removal of one heat sink.
The problem of ammunition explosions is being addressed with the incorporation of
Cellular Ammunition Storage Equipment for the missile reloads.
The weapons will also be upgraded, according to the latest version of the
plans, with a pulse laser replacing the medium laser in the head and a Ceres Arms
Warrior Extended-Range Particle Projection Rifle replacing the older Smasher model
in the Vindicator's right arm. This design drops the Hessen Small Laser formerly
carried in the left arm.
