==HistoryOverview==The Trojan is easy to manufacture, highly dependable, efficient in its role and easy to repair in the field thanks to its use of the same basic chassis and engine in common with the Chimera. Unlike the Chimera the Trojan lacks heavy frontal armor, along with other combat-focus features such as medi-packs and [[targeter]]s, with the extra space given over to room for supplies and a heavy-lift crane. The crane is strong enough to lift heavy objects from within the Trojan's hold and tow a range of supply trailers, of which the three main types are a large fuel tanker, an armoured ammunition trailer and a general supply trailer. It is also capable of towing large equipment such as [[Weapons Platforms]], although it lacks the power to tow other armoured vehicles, a task best left to the [[Atlas]].{{Fn|1}}
