The fire-support Vulture can pound enemies from a distance with its
long-range missile (LRM) pods. If anything survives, it can finish the job
with its ample laser weaponry. Methodical Mech pilots can exploit the
massive missile racks on the Vulture's shoulders.
When raging battles prevent opposing forces from targeting it, the
Vulture can stay out of range of smaller guns on an overlooking ridge and
shower ordnance on it foes. When it can escape detection long enough to
launch volleys, its missiles can wreak havoc on Mech battle groups on the
march.
When armed with Clan Large Pulse Lasers and Machine Gun (MG) Arrays in
addition to the LRM Racks, the Vulture can handle mop-up duty on the
battlefield. Without heavy short-range weaponry, however, the Vulture
remains vulnerable to rushing tactics from opposing forces that fight
through the missile and laser fire.
