Manufacturer: MandalMotors & Hydrospeare Corporation
Model: T-86 "Undine" Amphibious Speeder
Affiliation: Any
Modularity: No
Production: Minor
Material: Durasteel
Description:
The T-86 'Undine" Amphibious speeder is the first amphibious speeder to hit the market from MandalMotors in decades. Created mostly due to the explicit commision from KRDS, the Undine is set to hit the public market with a splash. Though slower in the air than its older brother, the Undine allows for underwater "flight" and combat up to 15 atmospheres safely. Coupled with its plasma cannon designed for underwater combat and protection, this vessel is planned to become widely popular for underwater tours on a variety of planets.

From a military stand point these vessels could work well on planetary assaults, able to maneuver just as well in the seas and oceans as in the air. However, its lack of armor provides an interesting choice should this vessel be used in military campaigns.

I like this boat. It flies about as fast as a Bugati Veyron drives, so that seems reasonable. This is approved pending review.

Couple of things:

Please give an image citation.

Second, the weight seems off. 17kg is very light. Do you mean 17000 kg/17 tons?

Please tag me in your reply. Thanks!

@[member="Asemir Lor'kora"] the credit is there already. For some reason the link was pushed to the side of the picture, and no I mean't 17kg, its not meant to cary anything more than the person(s) that the vehicle was designed for so its 17kg plus whatever species is in the thing

 

[Asemir]

Ah, I see the credit now.

The 17 kg is far too light for any vehicle. 17 kg is approximately 40 lbs. There are no vehicles that light. Any of the listed equipment/armaments/gear along would weigh approximately that much. The weight needs to be increased to at least 5 tons, if not more.
