Description
The Maxim Mark II Transport was produced by Cyclops Inc. of Skye. The vehicle was intended as a "upgrade" from the original Maxim Hover Transport. Cyclop's designers shunned the vehicle's original heavy & dated weaponry for minimum self-defense equipment. This was to encourage vehicle commanders to not risk crew or its passengers from enemy fire.
The vehicle was widely used post-Jihad era among military powers.
Armament & Capacities
The vehicle is only armed only with a turret mounted Hovertec Streak Two launcher.
It has the capacity to transport platoon of Battle Armor or company of foot soldiers.
Variants
None known.
