Description

The Musketeer Hover Tank is a combat vehicle designed to deliver concentrated firepower quickly and cheaply. The hovertank is as difficult to kill as a hover vehicle can be, with seven tons of Ferro-Fibrous armor protecting it, and CASE protecting its four-person crew from internal explosions. An internal combustion engine is inexpensive and can still maintain speeds up to 119 km/h.[1]

Armament

The Musketeer was created to deliver a Mydron Tornado Rotary Autocannon/5 to the field. Three tons of ammunition give the Musketeer's crew the ability to maintain sustained fire. The autocannon is backed up by a pair of Holly Mark II Streak SRM-2 launchers. The result of this is a scattershot effect that can quickly damage the motive systems of enemy tanks and damage critical systems.[1]

Variants

  • Armor - This variant replaces the autocannon with a smaller Rotary Autocannon/2. The loss of firepower nonetheless enabled engineers to add additional armor, making the Musketeer even more difficult to bring down.[1] BV (1.0) = 553[3], BV (2.0) = 897[5]
  • 3080 Upgrade - This version uses a Fusion Engine to provide power. This increases the Musketeer's top speed to 120km/h. The Streak launchers have been removed and a four ton infantry compartment has been added, as has some armor. BV (2.0) = 1,114[6]
