"Defender ready to fight!"

Tactical analysis

 * At the ready: Made up of volunteers. The Defenders are ideal defensive troops. When properly emplaced, they can easily hold off large numbers of enemy infantry, and are even effective against light vehicles. However, they must first deploy to be effective, which takes time
 * Mobile HMG nest: When deployed into their personal bunker or garrisoning a building, however, the Defender truly comes into his own. Their machine gun tearing straight through infantry and light vehicles, and with enough range to cut down most attackers without fear of retaliation. And when garrisoned, they fire faster and can even fire at enemy aircraft
 * Tank punch: If the Defender faces against armored vehicles they can fire their light anti-tank weapon (LAW), while it does little damage to more modern armor the squads training with it means that their shot always damages the engine
 * Where's the garrison: But because of the weight of their heavy armour and extra equipment, Defenders travel much slower than most infantry, and while their rifle is powerful its only good against infantry and the unit must be still to fire
