STRENGTHS

• Sealed: The vehicle has plenty of systems in place to keep the crew safe and allow them to fight in a variety of environments.
• Fast: Designed to move quickly, the speeder has very good speed and mobility.
• Space: With a roomy interior and versatile deck, the truck can load plenty of cargo, passengers, or equipment.
• Backup: The speeder has deployable wheels and several contingencies to aid it in situations.

WEAKNESSES

• Coating: The triprismatic polymer coating is only meant to keep its signature low, not to camouflage the truck entirely.
• Armament: The speeder’s armament is somewhat lacking, making it unsuitable against heavy targets.
• Awareness: Despite all the systems, scanners and cameras, the crew has little situational awareness.
• Shields: The shield generator can be easily overpowered by powerful weapons.

DESCRIPTION
With numerous lessons learned over multiple battlefields, the need for a smaller, more maneuverable troop transport quickly became apparent. The result was the Type 74 armoured assault speeder.

The speeder is significantly smaller than the utility trucks typically used by the Hellion Private Military, and is capable of ferrying an entire squad of soldiers in and out of any engagement at very respectable speeds. Along with numerous contingencies and safety features, the speeder can operate in virtually any environment.
