OVERVIEW

    The TME-156 Barrett is a heavy ProtoMech dedicated to long-range sniping.  It has the speed of a Roc while carrying a light shotgun autocannon, the most massive weapon ever carried by a ProtoMech.  The downsides are that the light autocannon, while having an extremely long range, does not cause much damage; also, the Barrett carries even less armor than the Harpy.  The lack of armor is not considered a deficit as the Barrett is intended for extreme ranges and has sufficient speed to escape heavier enemies and even an electronic countermeasures suite that allows it to hide from enemy sensors.

DEPLOYMENT

    The TME-156's reception has been lukewarm because of its weak hitting power.  Its extreme range has made it useful on some occassions, however.
