==Description==
Perhaps the best known unit of the entire [[Free Worlds League Military]], the [[Royal Gurkha]] [[Battalion]] of the [[4th Regulan Hussars]] use '''Heavy Jump Infantry''' to hit the enemy fast and hard. Their distinctive battle dress includes side-armor plating for additional protection, and their thirty-kilogram jump packs allows each trooper a "jump" range of 60 meters. Though lacking in anti-'[[Mech]] training, the legendary reputation of the Gurkhas is well-earned, even in the far-future of the [[thirty-first century]].<ref name=TR85>''Technical Readout: 3085'', p. 200</ref>

==Armament==
The Gurkhas make use of the reliable [[Laser Rifle (ER, Starfire)|Starfire ER Laser Rifle]] as their primary armament, with [[King David Light Gauss Rifle|"King David" Light Gauss Rifle]] providing squad support firepower. But the most unique weapon they wield are the traditional ''[[w:Kukri|kukri]]'' that each trooper carries into battle.
