"Scimitar in hand, defend the territory"

—Excerpt from the lyrics of the Egyptian Defence Force anthem of the African Brotherhood.

The "lion" is a humanoid weapon made by the African Brotherhood, which is characterized by easy production, strong resistance to extreme terrain and weather, and the male lions of various countries have different colors and even weapons.

【Styling】

The distinctive feature of the lion is the large area of each piece of armor and the fact that the torso is equipped with a dust shield.

The head looks like two bowls up and down together, with a 360°C field of view.

【Armament】

(Standard type)

Dust-proof machine gun x1

Thermal Machete x1

Various grenades are ******* strike type)

Carrying howitzer x2

Portable Cannon x1

There are a number of mounted missiles.

(Bureau Topography)

Shoulder smoothbore gun x1

Portable Heavy Gatling X1

A number of grenades.

【Development process】

The African Brotherhood is relatively backward in the development of humanoid weapons, one of the reasons is that it was originally a commercial consortium, and its military industrial base is weak, and some member countries are reluctant to unify the military after it begins; Second, the member countries are relatively independent, and it is difficult to force the comprehensive development of humanoid weapons, and some conservative countries still use tanks of the old era when they are invaded.

However, the advantage of slow development is that it is convenient to learn from experience, and the scientists of the African Brotherhood found that their mechanical structure was more complex after referring to the humanoid weapons of the major forces, which increased the difficulty and time of manufacturing. For example, the Covenant "Lifeguard" style, which is already considered cheap, is designed to be spliced by multiple pieces of armor in order to improve the mobility of the waist.

As a result, the scientists of the African Brotherhood decided to reduce the number of components needed to assemble their own humanoid weapons. The lion was designed with only two pieces of armor in the waist and abdomen, and only two pieces in the chest, because the production efficiency was greatly increased due to the reduction of parts.

And then they need to take into account practicality, and the African Brotherhood values homegrown warfare. Africa's natural environment is complex, with many deserts and wetlands, and if it is designed like other forces, it will be very troublesome to maintain in the future.

So they invented a special material that is quite dustproof, waterproof, and durable. The dust cover made of this material encloses the vital joints of each body, greatly increasing the service life of the body and the risk of accidents. After the HER invaded Africa, similar dust shields were installed on their bodies, but with much less effect.

In terms of the field of view, most of the bodies of other forces use the main camera in the front, and the back view is obtained through small cameras in other positions on the body. In order to save costs and manufacturing difficulties, the lion designed the "eyes" of the body to rotate 360°C, and then only set up a small camera on the top of the body's head. The advantage is that the driver needs a certain angle of vision, and the acquisition speed is about 1 second slower than that of other forces.

The thrifty, efficient, and simple Lion soon gained the favor of most of the African Brotherhood member countries, and even the countries that were not old enough to build their own production lines immediately after the HER invasion.

Lions are designed in different countries, such as the Egyptian lion, whose body style is referencing that of ancient Egyptian soldiers, and is equipped with a thermal Egyptian scimitar and a large shield. In countries with more deserts, the dust protection effect of its body is better, and the color of the body is mostly earthy yellow. In countries with many wetlands, it is more waterproof and the color scheme is mostly blue or green.

The male lion also has a variety of modifications, which also benefit from its simple structure and easy modification. Common forms include shelling and local terrain. The forms that are less numerous include water warfare, air combat specialization, reconnaissance specialization, ground high-speed formation, and so on.

【Special Purpose Machine】

Chaka Zulu

The body named after the famous African king Chakazulu, piloted by Colonel Django. Its body features a large horn decoration on its head, several high-speed spears mounted on its shield, and a thermal spear in addition to the machine gun as its main weapon.

Colonel Django only pilots this mech in very important battles.
