After the truce of Tukayyid, the DCMS began an upgrade of the Pegasus hovertank. The newer model, produced by Scarborough Manufacturers of Al'Nair, replaces the ICE with a 140 Fusion Engine and replaces the Medium Laser with a Medium Pulse Laser. It also adds a Guardian ECM suite, a TAG system, and a Beagle Active Probe. This gives the new Pegasus a faster speed of 151.2 kph, increases its firepower, and adds electronic warfare capabilities.
