Clan Hells Horses started to feel the lack
of sophisticated vehicles for anti-aircraft
defense at the beginning of the Golden
Century, but with the introduction
technologies and omnimechs this role was
taken by mechs that were simply
reconfigured as the situation demanded. Now
this obscure vehicle can be encountered only
with Hells Horses who still use vehicles
extensively and Blood Spirits who don't want
to waste resources on so sophisticated
mechs.
The Uller was equipped with low caliber
cluster gun to destroy various VTOLs and
Arrow IV to create flak even in heights where
fighters were safe before and even provide
it's cluster with limited artillery support. Both
weapons were installed to spacious turret
that makes the vehicle pretty distinctive and
gives the weapons wide field of fire and
ability to react quickly to approaching
fighters. Whole system was installed on
cheap but reliable wheeled chassis that
allows it to keep up with the main forces, but
it's ability to pass through rough terrain is
limited. The armor installed on Uller is
another one of it's weaknesses. Seven tons
of Forging ZK11 provide adequate protection
for support unit, but the Uller is usually
primary target for any fighters in the area.

Uller 2 was created as more conventional
variant. With twin light ballistics auto
cannons and large pulse laser Uller 2 can
produce highly accurate barrages that can be
dangerous to aircraft, vehicles and even
mechs. Thanks to long range of it's weapons
it can provide effective fire support on ranges
where the enemy is unable to respond. The
turret is also equipped with searchlight
powerful enough to track aircraft flying up to
two kilometers away.
Ullers are usually deployed in whole stars
consisting of three Uller 2s that provide direct
protection and two standard Ullers for
destroying fighters before they approach too
near.
I chose the name Uller because it seems to fit
well with clan naming conventions and
because IS forces weren't aware of clan
vehicles until 3060.
