Clan Falcons' leaders ordered the vehicle creation due for the need to produce a vehicle for use in urban combat. Clan Merchant Factor Daniel had been responsible for the named the vehicle. The Chalchiuhtotolin was conceived by a group Clan Jade Falcon Scientists and Technicians known as the Eagle Craft Group. The Group then handed the designs to Clan Jade Falcon controlled manufacturer known as Quikscell Company of Pandora.

The Chalchiuhtotolin's main weapon is its turreted mounted Kolibri Delta Series Large Pulse Laser.

The vehicle flamer utilizes two ammunition bays to draw from, with option adding alternate ammunition in the intentions help firefighting crews in the cities. The vehicle has single ton of ammunition dedicate for each the Streak Launcher and its Light Machine Guns. To help migrate the vehicle's heat, it fitted with twelve heat sinks.[3]
