The Thoth was a product line of Lorica built by Pharaoh Combat Robotics in AC Egypt. The series has been considered commercially successful and has been populator with a number of operators since its inception due to its eminent suitability in suiting the Battery Type, an architype it helped to create. Surplus models undergo frequent conversion to civilian use due to their appropriate versatility and their overall stability.
During the Third World War, one model of Thoth in particular was operated extensively by the AATO forces, especially the army of the African Confederation and the army of the United States of Western Europe. In one famous incident, the Duel over Paris, a specially modified Thoth A-2038/B operating a AATO Regent Hunter DEWS became the first Lorica to ever successfully deploy an Anti-Ballistic Weapons System.
Model Descriptions
Capitalizing on the commercial success of the design, PCR has created a number of different variants of the Thoth, while keeping the same overall design over the years. While there were exceptions over the years, almost all of the units incorporated the same basic design of most lorica model - humanoid-type manipulator units with a hexapod mobility unit. The core module of the Thoth line had always been particularly iconic, with some of the ECCM, transmission, and sensing equipment contained in an extension off of the sensor "head" unit that gave the impression of a long bill, similar to Thoth, the ancient Egyptian god of the moon, mathematics, and sciences.
As mentioned above, the Thoth was almost always deployed in a battery role.
Thoth A-2038/B
The Thoth A-2038/B was a variant introduced for sale in 2038 and adopted immediately by the African Confederate Armed Forces and later widely adopted by their allies in the Anti-Authoritarianism Treaty Organization. Though specialist hardware, Thoth's behind-the-line role and the manufacturing capacity of the AC was more than sufficient to supply them in sufficient quantities that the units were also fielded by the armed forces of the member-states of the United States of Western Europe and, to a lesser extent, the South Asian Free States.
Thoth was popular among its pilots (and less so among its maintainance crews), and for good reason. The A-2038/B contained specialist subroutines that granted certain capabilities to the system they were run against:
- Core Unit: Greater Counterjamming
- Manipulator Units: Decoy Shot
- Mobility Unit: Battery Mode
