The Blade Liger is a Liger-type Zoid designed and operated solely by the PAC.
While the Shield Liger's capabilities were solid for its day, the Blade Liger improves upon them, being faster and more agile than its predecessor. It also gains new weaponry, the most noticeable being a pair of Laser Blades capable of cutting through all but the densest of enemy armour. Its E-shield is enhanced with the addition of four cooling units located in the white 'fins' of its shoulder armour. Like the Shield Liger, it sports a Shock Cannon on its chest, albeit a longer dual-barreled one as opposed to its predecessor's shorter triple-barreled variant, and the Pulse Laser Guns found on the blunt sides of the Laser Blades add to the Zoid's ranged combat abilities. It's rear trusters make it fast enough to close with an enemy Zoid to slice it with its blade, dodging heavy fire in the process.
The Blade Liger is an evolution of the earlier Shield Liger with improved melee capabilities, in the form of increased speed, strength, and agility, along with the addition of two Laser Blades. Originally, the Coalition had difficulty manufacturing more due to its unique construction and Zoid Core, but still recognized the merits of having such a Zoid on their side in times of both war and peace. Despite being more expensive than the stock Shield Liger, several dozen of these Zoids were produced and filtered through the ranks of the PAC.
A wide array of customizations and modifications available to the Blade Liger make it attractive to individual pilots and armed forces alike, and many have been produced as a result.
Needless to say, the reputation of Blade Liger as high performance and reliable has made it a popular choice among aspiring young pilots.because of its involvement in an untold number of heroic victories during WWIII.
If we speak technically for a moment, though, the Blade Liger is still extremely attractive on stats alone. It has armor better than many of the Zoids in its class of similar speed and agility, and has a good array of weapons to begin with. If the stock form just isn’t enough, there exist an array of modifications to give it any number of other abilities, allowing it to adapt to most situations. And, lastly, the Blade Liger is a powerful melee demon, with almost unparalleled close-quarters abilities
