Description
The Pegasus is a popular recon unit, due to its good speed, decent armor, and respectable firepower. It can be found in almost all militaries, having been introduced in the First Succession War.
Armament
The Pegasus mounts considerable weaponry for its size, a pair of StarStreak Heavy SRM 6s and a Medium Laser.
Variants
As a recon vehicle, known variants of the Pegasus include removing weapons altogether or conversely removing the sensors and adding more SRM ammo.
- 3058 Upgrade - After the Truce of Tukayyid, the DCMS began an upgrade of the Pegasus hovertank. The newer model, produced by Scarborough Manufacturers of Al Na'ir, replaces the ICE with a 140 Fusion Engine and replaces the Medium Laser with a Medium Pulse Laser. It also adds a Guardian ECM Suite, a TAG system, and a Beagle Active Probe. This gives the new Pegasus a faster speed of 151.2 kph, increases its firepower, and adds electronic warfare capabilities. BV (2.0) = 706[1]
- Pegasus C3 - This version mounts more armor than the typical 3058 upgrade version, and carries a pair of Medium Pulse Lasers and Streak SRM-4 launchers in the turret. Room for all this weaponry comes at the expense of the electronics equipment mounted in the typical 3058 Pegasus. This version does, however, include a C3 Slave in the tank's hull which allows it to share targeting data with friendly units. BV (2.0) = 785[2]
- Pegasus MRM - This version carries a turret mounted MRM-20 launcher and an ER Medium Laser. It also carries a Guardian ECM Suite and a C3 Slave. BV (2.0) = 781[3]
- Pegasus (Sealed) - This version is environmentally sealed and uses Heavy Ferro-Fibrous armor to provide protection. The electronic equipment (TAG,Guardian,Beagle) give this variant futher protection. It also uses a Light Engine and replaces the standard weapons with twin MML-3 launchers and as reserve a MPL is installed.[4] BV (2.0) = 618[5]
- Pegasus (X-Pulse) - This is the production name of the Pegasus X described below. The only difference in the tank is the name. Performance, protection, and weapons are all identical. BV (2.0) = 1,119[6]
Custom Variants
- Pegasus X - This was an experimental variant produced by Scarborough Manufacturing Annex of Algedi in 3070s. Designed to use experimental weaponry and equipment, it was intended become generation of the Pegasus in recon and harassment actions. The vehicle was fitted with a 210 XL Fusion Engine with a Supercharger. This allowed the vehicle to achieve flank speed of 170 km/h and 220 km/ph when the Supercharger is successfully engaged. Mounted in the turret, the vehicle has twin Medium X-Pulse Lasers co-axed with a Streak SRM 6 launcher. To enhance its spotting abilities, the vehicle has a C3 Slave fitted. The hull is protected by 4.5 tons of Heavy Ferro-Fibrous Armor. BV 1.0 = ????, BV 2.0 = 1,119[7]
