Description
(Starship Troopers story)
As an extension of “Starship Troopers” and the interstellar battle between the Terran Federation (humans) versus the Uropigy Empire (bugs) 🐜 I present the concept of:
The "Hopper Bug" is a species of giant "Uropigy" of 4 meters high that reinforces the aerial attacks with great skill when deploying in group against the mobile infantry of the Terran federation.
The "Hopper bugs" share the same function of the "Rippler kamikaze" to intercept enemy ships or shoot down wounded soldiers from the air, despite sharing a similar appearance, the "Hopper bugs" prefers to plummet to decapitate unsuspecting soldiers with their claws. .
An effective way to eliminate a “jumping” bug is to get into an entrenched position to hit a shot at its fragile exoskeleton while it rushes, the shots make it lose control, shattering itself in its fall, leaving enough time to re-inspect the sky to locate the next bug.
To complement a nightly chronicle, the bright lights can hypnotize the attention of a swarm of “Hopper Bugs” that with a well-placed booby trap can function as a fly-killing lamp that neutralizes their threat. 😆
