The Junker Coyotes are a criminal gang in ARMORED CORE VI FIRES OF RUBICON. They are Dosers, and are addicted to Coral.
Background[]
The Junker Coyotes have a long-standing rivalry with Reuse and Development (RaD), but usually are not considered much of a threat, as the presence of "Invincible" Rummy is enough to keep them at bay. Once Raven defeats Rummy, however, the Junker Coyotes see their chance to seize control of Grid 086 and advance to RaD's doorstep using newly-acquired black market MTs. To add insult to injury, the Coyotes' MTs are new models produced by RaD itself. Before she agrees to show Raven the way to Grid 086's cargo launcher so they can travel to Rubicon 3's Central Ice Field to continue the Coral survey, RaD leader "Cinder" Carla has Raven fill-in for the late Rummy and sweep up the Junker Coyote incursion.
During the Planetary Closure Administration's intervention in the Coral War, the PCA cracks down on RaD, and the Junker Coyotes make a deal to help in exchange for RaD's territory. Soon, all of RaD's Grids in the Belius region except Grid 086 are overtaken by the Coyotes. Carla retaliates by preparing to launch three missiles at a Grid near Watchpoint Delta where the Coyotes have concentrated their forces, and with Raven fending off multiple waves of Coyotes and a PCA AS07: HEAVY WARSHIP, the missile strike is carried out successfully.
Later, after the PCA deploys IA-02: ICE WORM, Carla sends Raven to hunt down "Honest" Brute, a former RaD member who turned traitor and absconded with a large portion of the group's resources, including an incomplete rail cannon that could pierce the Ice Worm's defenses. It turns out Brute took over as the new leader of the Junker Coyotes, explaining how they were able to obtain RaD's latest products. Raven assaults Brute's hideout in the crumbling Grid 012 and defeats him, and RaD reclaims the Overed Rail Cannon. It is presumed the Coyotes disbanded and fell apart after having most of their forces wiped out from the missile strike, alongside their HQ being assaulted and their leader slain, as the Coyotes are not seen again past this point.
