Description
The base for a command van is a six-wheeled all terrain vehicle. The van contains medical equipment for first aid, communication systems for surface to surface and surface to orbit transmissions. During battle the vehicle is under normal circumstances far away from the frontline. The vehicle is lightly armored.[1]
