KSR-002/B Baurus Militia Type

The Baurus Militia Type, also known as the Baurus "Confed Type", was the primary battlesuit of the Confederation of Worlds between 2381 to 2384. While it was replaced by the KSR-005 Baurus II in 2385, the Baurus would continue to see action during the Dismantlement War.

History When Johnathon Thalis and his followers were given rights to the former Gro-Nak worlds, they also became in possession of Kasr Corporation, a industrial utility company that had produced Battlesuits for clearing terrain, building, mining, and defending colonies from pirates for the past few decades. The Baurus was their first design, and a rather good one at that.

Technical Data: The Baurus looks similar to the well-known Punisher of Czerka Corp. but is designed primarily for industrial use. The left arm mounts the DP-52 “Dragon” Plasma Projector for easily clearing terrain. It can also be fitted with a number of industrial aids. For defence purposes it is also equipped with 2 Rail Gatling Guns, a defensive shield, and a Trinnium Longsword. The Confed-funded Militia Type, features the same systems, but also has Long-Range Missile launchers, and 2 machine guns.

 * The Baurus is meant to sound roman, due to their heavy phalanx capabilities.
 * The Baurus is actually named after a relative of the founder of the Celestial Farming Corperation.
