Intent: To create a relatively light and fast ground attach vehicle to pair with the LAAV
Development Thread: N/A
Manufacturer: Fondor TerraTech
Model: Omega "Packhorse" Fast Assault Vehicle
Affiliation: Omega Protectorate
Modularity: Yes
Production: Mass-Produced
Material: Durasteel
Description: The "Packhorse" was originally designed to be a cheap and relatively easy to build front line cargo hauler capable of ferrying large quantities of ammunition,rations and equipment to frontline troops fairly quick. It was armed with a OPR-2 on the drivers right side,so the driver could steer with their left hand and fire with the right,and a OPRC-1 on the passenger side. These were added for the protection of the crew in case they got pinned down. It wasn't until a crew of Pyre soldiers mounted weapon mounts on it was it noticed as a good assault vehicle. The soldiers took all the cargo out and added three extra gun mounts,one for a E-Web on the top of the cab and two for OPRC-1's on the side of the bed. Once this was done and all the cargo was removed,it was found that the "Packhorse" could travel almost over 100 KM/H and traverse hard terrain,this made it a perfect canidate for a FAV,or Fast Assault Vehicle. This vehicle doesn't come without its downsides though,one being that it is lightly armored due to the fact it relies more on speed than anything else,another is that the driver and passenger and completely exposed.
