Role: Siege/Assault.

"Mantis" design, being in arsenal of the Nation for centuries, had brought many victories in battles because of it's combination of speed, armor and firepower comparing to other factions counterparts. But, of course, with the time flow they became outdated and not so effective on the battlefield. There, indeed, were numerous modifications of the main design, delivered by Meridians to suit more specific roles but it has reached the limits of it's service span and gets replaced with newer constructions.

MIB-13-M9(l)-S is the last modification of the "Mantis" design. It is issued for use by Nation special forces and shows influence of E.F. doctrine on the original design. Modifications include: new proton 97mm coilless anti-materiel rifle that uses typical chemical warheads and offers unusually high effective range for it's caliber, reinforced frontal, side and lower armor plating, ion power generator was displaced to the rear.
