Description

The Skulker is the much larger cousin of the Swift Wind scout car and originally based on the Heavy APC design. Due to it being larger than any scout car, it can act as a mobile communication outpost. With its advanced sensor suite which is tied to both its communication and targeting system, it can navigate with only its sensors. While hot environments would wreak havoc upon its advanced electronics, the heat sinks from its Medium Laser cools the sensors while the laser is not in use. This would allow it to operate in even the hottest environments where other scout vehicles can't.

Armament

Been one of the most heavily armored scout vehicles with 4.5 tonnes of armor and a mounted 1 Standard Systems Medium Laser it can operate without support for extended period of time.
