Description
The Packrat is a speedy eight-wheeled vehicle that is designed for deep infiltration and sabotage. It is capable of carrying a squad of infantrymen and their gear, and, in a pinch, the interior can be modified into a sleeping area.
Armament
The Packrat is armed with a Harvester SRM-6 and a pair of Flamers for anti-infantry work. Despite this firepower it normally uses its high speed to evade combat, as its role is not to fight head-on.
Variants
- ICE - The ravages of the Successor Wars let to the removal of the Packrat's advanced fusion engine. With the heavier ICE engine, the flamer and a ton of armor had to be dropped. BV (2.0) = 294[2]
- ML - This variant a simple weapon swap. The flamer is exchanged for two forward firing medium lasers. BV (2.0) = 501[3]
- SRM2 - This variant expands the infantry bay to a three ton space. The missile launcher had to be reduced to a SRM-2 with two tons of ammunition. BV (2.0) = 263[4]
- Pack Rat Gespenst - Developed by Loki the Pack Rat Gespenst is protected by Vehicular Stealth Armor, a Bloodhound Active Probe, and an Angel ECM Suite. Equipped with an XXL Fusion Engine increases ground speed to 96km/h. Limited Amphibious Equipment and Environmental Sealing protect the crew from hostile environments, and a four ton battle armor compartment prohibits the use of any weapons.[5]
