The Strikebreaker sports an impressive array of weapons and it is a serious menace to anybody wanting to hurt the Corporate Sector Authority. This vehicle has two objectives: to frighten rioters off and if failing that, to kill them off. While the CSA is reluctant to use these vehicles, when they are called out Espos are told to use whatever means are necessary to restore order. The Strikebreaker is a sealed vehicle and is more readily adaptable to exotic environments than other Espo vehicles. Also it carries troops into combat. The medium laser cannons deal with vehicles, the rear retractable mounted heavy repeating blasters are mounted on retractable turret platforms; when elevated, they have a full field of fire and are controlled from an internal gunnery module in the rear of the Strikebreaker. The Grenade Mortar is controlled from within the forward command cabin. One of the most effective, but experimental weapons on this vehicle is the Stun Barricade. When a full scale riot is in progress, the Stun Barricade telescopes outwards to ram and burst through any physical obstruction. For riot control duty, the Strikebreaker can charge its Stun Barricade with stun energy to repel troublemakers.
