Description

In 2666 Star League contracted Numall Armored Vehicles to build the Beagle Hover Scout. The Beagle was ready for production in just 12 months, and it was quickly fielded to most of the SLDF armor units. Unfortunately crews found a critical flaw in the vehicle shortly after it was fielded. The flaw caused the turret to lock up in a way that required the vehicle be returned to the manufacturer to be fixed. This fix, however, often took as long as the original construction. This caused many SLDF units to "forget" to turn in the flawed vehicles. Because many of the original tanks where never refitted, the Beagle disappeared during the First Succession War, as often from mechanical failure as from combat damage.

Armament

The Beagle is lightly armed with a Small Laser mounted on the front of the vehicle, and a Medium Laser along with the Beagle Active Probe that gives the vehicle its name mounted in the turret.
