Human Vehicles

 

Warthog: The M12 light reconnaissance vehicle (LRV), or Warthog, is the standard vehicle of the UEG armed forces. It is fast and maneuverable, but prone to rollovers during hard cornering. A three-barreled The Chief's pimp-mobileM41 machine-gun is mounted in the rear of the vehicle. Armed passengers will significantly increase the unit's anti-infantry capacity. There are several variants of the standard model including a stripped-down variant with extended passenger capacity, a variant that replaces the normal all-terrain wheels with tracks for traveling over snow and ice, one with a mounted gauss cannon instead of the M41, two versions with two different classes of rocket launchers replacing the M41, and a variant which replaces the M41 with an Ardent V missile rack. There is also an unarmed civilian model simply called the "Hog" which is available to civilians in varying color schemes. The M12 and all of it's variants are issued with a variety of features, including four-wheel drive, independent suspension on all wheels, emergency brakes, radio, radar, flood lights, a winch, and transmission which is available in automatic or manual. It is powered by a forward-housed low-profile hydrogen I/C plant. The hydrogen fuel is burned at very high temperature with a synthetic carbon/silicon catalyst to achieve even better fuel consumption.

Crew: 1 + 1 (plus 1 more in rear)
Weight: 3.5 tons
Armament: 12.7mm three-barreled M41 LAAG

Scorpion Tank: The Scorpion Main Battle Tank is primarily an anti-vehicle weapons platform, but it also has very high anti-infantry capabilities. Its ceramic-titanYay! Big shooty gunsium armor makes it nearly invulnerable to small arms fire, but its deep dead-zone, or the area within which fire from the tank's guns cannot hit targets, puts it at risk from enemy anti-tank infantry. Up to four soldiers may ride on (and fire from) the Scorpion's track pods. Riding on a tank is always hazardous and should be done only when the advantages outweigh the risks. The Scorpion MBT's four track pods operate independently, and have their own range of movement. This helps considerably when crossing uneven terrain, and can even clear most large obstacles.

Crew: 2 (or 1 Spartan)
Weight: 66 tons
Armament: 90mm HV (High Velocity)
Secondary/coaxial gun: 7.62mm AP-T
(Armor Piercing, Tracer)

Longsword: The Longsword interceptor is the workhorse of the UNSC Navy. It's main weapon are 110mm rotary cannons for dog fighting in space. This versatile fighter can be armed with an assortment of secondary weapons including mines, ASGM-10 missiles, bombs, and even Shiva nuclear-tipped missiles.

Crew: 1 pilot + 1 copilot + 2 flight crew
Weight: 95 tons
Secondary: Shiva nuclear-tipped missiles, mines, bombs

Pelican: The standard method of deploying troops from orbit to ground is the D77-TC "Pelican" Troop Carrier. The Pelican has a capacity of three crew (pilot, copilot, and flight engineer) and 10 passengers in it's rear bay (though it n accommodate five additional standing passengers in a crisis). It is equipped with electronic systems hardened against EMP; heavy armor; a 70mm "chin gun" controlled by a gunner and an IHADSS (Integrated Helmet and Display Sight System-essentially, wherever the gunner looks, the chin gun follows); rocket pods; jamming and detection gear; an onboard weapons locker (which can hold weapons and ammo for up to 30 troops); and computerized mapping gear.

Crew: 1 pilot + 1 copilot + 1 flight engineer + 10 MarinesFun to ride
