Description and History: The first of the MBR-04 series Bipedal Weapons System, the Tomahawk Mk I entered service in February 2096. Once successfully tested, the Tomahawk became the basis for three other Destroid types and the improved Tomahawk Mk VI quickly followed in late 2097. The Tomahawk Mk VI is the most heavily armed of the MBR-04 series and the most widely deployed model. Of the nearly 600 hundred Bipedal Weapons Systems deployed as of February 2099, over 400 were Tomahawk Mk VI units. Armed with a wide array of weaponry suited to nearly any combat operation, the Tomahawk features particle cannons, missiles, machine guns, and flamethrowers to unleash fire in any role from anti-personnel to anti-aircraft. The Mk VI version also features a retractable periscope and includes the option of mounting searchlight/missile packs in one or both mounts on either side of the top weapons bays.
