Techno-Viper (1987)

Modern battles involve expensive, complicated machines and it is inevitable that these machines sustain enemy inflicted damage, succumb to driver-error or simply break down of their own accord. It is the mission of the Techno-Vipers to provide field maintenance support and combat-engineer capability to the frontline Cobra troops. Techno-Vipers can repair HISS tanks, build bridges and retrieve large heavy machines from seemingly inaccessible places.

"Just because the Techno-Vipers carry wrenches and jacks, don't underestimate them! They work their way up from the ranks of Vipers and each one is a qualified Cobra Infantryman. They also function as sappers and are always called on as the first wave in assaulting a heavily fortified position!"
