INFORMATION

The AM-72 IMPASSE is a heavily armored combat walker. It is used to defend installations or provide support for infantry. Its most prominent feature is the pair of large armor plates mounted onto the upper legs. While it is far from the tallest walker, its wall-like appearance remains imposing even in urban environments.

Hull Height: 7590 mm
Hull Width: 7975 mm
Hull Length: 4565 mm
Empty Mass: 36,300 kg
Max. Safe Mass: 48,000 kg
Max. Walking Speed: 4.0 km/h
Unit Cost: $13.5 million
Units Built: 600 (approx.)
Crew: 0-1

Due to its heavy armor, the machine marches at a slow pace compared to soldiers on foot. However, it can utilize backwards-facing rocket engines to perform a reverse slide, and reach speeds of up to 30 km/h. This is most useful for tactical retreats. It may also be used to travel faster, but the effectiveness of the leg armor will be lost.

    @Ian_Yashima the step size is limited by the shield-gun and shield-feet interaction, and I'm not sure I want to increase the step frequency too much

    it looks nice, but I believe it can actually walk faster at this size.
