- Broken Arrow

## Tactical Analysis

* **Lady of War:** Broken Arrow is the callsign for the IPDI's commando. Her environmental hazard armor grants her the ability to enter hostile terrain, and her advanced sensory equipment grants her the largest sight and detection radius among all commandos. She would also use her radio equipment to help coordinate attacks with nearby allies, increasing their range. When rearmed she switches to a battlefield medical kit, allowing her to not only heal herself and nearby infantry but also stabilize wounded and revive recently dead soldiers of both sides, giving resources back to the IPDI war effort. And can use her radio to call in a "Terminus Strike", consisting of bombers launching white phosphorus cruise missiles to devastate a small area, or a “Decimus Strike”, saturating a large area with scrambler artillery shells.

* **Armageddon:** Broken Arrow's weapon of choice is an advanced target designator system. With it, she is able to call down fire supports depending on her target, strafing runs for infantry, anti-tank missiles for vehicles/tanks/watercraft, interceptors for aircraft, and artillery bombardment for structures. However, she has long intervals between calls, as it takes time for the fire support to reload after the order. Rearmed she’ll switch to a 40mm semi-automatic grenade launcher equipped with sabot grenades that lets her personally destroy her targets, whether it be infantry, tanks, or structure, but her range will be drastically shortened, and her equipment slows her down, though she’ll wear heavier armour to compensate. In addition, she is also armed with a customized .50 nightingale pistol for close-range defense no matter the loadout due to both weapons having a substantial minimum range.

* **One of a kind:** Broken Arrow is naturally expensive and difficult to deploy on the battlefield. Her armor, while strong, is still inferior compared to most other commandos and makes her too heavy to swim. Her designator/grenade launcher has high damage potential, but a very low rate of fire, while her pistol has a short range and even worse rate of fire, since their emergency weapons. As such, she is easily overwhelmed by numbers or superior opponents.

* **Mistress of Death:** Reverse engineering the equipment of the Atomic Kingdom in their various skirmishes with both the Chinese and the Indians. The IPDI has managed to make a "Jade Dust Bomb" capable of releasing clouds of Jade-laden dust that kills anything that breathes in the fumes, killing infantry in an instant and emptying tanks of their crew. However the sheer devastation of the weapon, not to mention cost, means that only Broken Arrow has the required clearance to call them, and even then she's hesitant to use it under normal circumstances. Often, Broke Arrow would use it in tandem with her upgraded weapons, switching her pistols rounds for experimental, and expensive, sabot bullets, and either bombardment priority (reduce calldown cooldowns) or switching to a fully automatic grenade launcher.

## Notable Feats

- Survived a shot to the heart from Zhangmei while operating in Vietnam. She had to undergo extensive surgery procedures but eventually recovered.

- Revived and saved the lives of an IPDI platoon after Yuriko's psionic scream cut through their position.

- Racked up a six-digit casualty count during the First Siege of Chiang Rai, her artillery designations were able to break the Chinese tide on the eastern front of the local fortress, buying enough time for reinforcements to arrive.

- Sank the *Feng Huang* Battleship and all fifteen of her escorts with a single coordinated air strike. There were no survivors.

- Infiltrated several hundred kilometers behind enemy lines in Milan to paint a Teal strike on AdvanceArmour Inc's industrial zone. AFV production still has not fully recovered from the attack.

- Coordinated pin point precise fire for the Nai Luang Malevolence to bring down a Musashi in a single shot from 243 kilometers away.
