The Radictistani Royal Security Police Light Armored Battalions are heavily-armed rapid response units organized and equipped to counter foreign incursions or major internal strife. The battalions are equipped with the MA9A2 Mobile Gun System, an eight-wheeled tank destroyer weighing twenty-five tonnes. Three battalions currently exist headquartered at Nuxenstat, Hartfer, and Wussrhas. Despite their official role of providing additional anti-tank support to the Royal Radictistan Army in a homeland defense scenario, the Light Armored Battalions are rumored to be intended as a counterweight to the army in the event of a power struggle between the two armed services.
