Early
skirmishes with frontline IDC forces demonstrated that
the Imperial Kamarthian Army's existing mobile
air-defences were inadequate, especially against at fast
& low targets. The logical solution was a mobile
version of the IKA's successful static flak turret. The
Sky-Reaper, as it is known, concedes one of the static
turret's 3 auto-blasters. This allows for a
self-contained fire-control system to be mounted in place
of the third cannon.
The 76mm cannon use Electro-magnetic acceleration in
addition to conventional explosives to launch the heavy
blast rounds. The 76mm has good accuracy and speed which,
combined with the high rate of fire, confers awesome
firepower.
The vehicle is a simple speeder platform, allowing for
instant recoil compensation stabilisation. This feature
improves it's accuracy when compared to cheaper
crawler/wheeled chassis'. A simple AAA
unit. This unit is intended to balance the longer-ranged
but limited Pechora system.
