The
standard IDC fire-support speeder uses a commercial
hover-car chassis with a plate armour upper section
protecting the two-man crew. The crew are separated with
the driver forwards and the gunner aft in front of the
weapons mounting.
The most common and preferred weapon is the 'Wombat'
recoilless anti-tank rifle. This has a modest rate of
fire and good firepower but for aiming and control
purposes, is fixed onto the forward axis. This slows the
units reaction time (relative to a rotating turret)
because the whole vehicle has to align with the target.
There're however many possible variations on armament
with various light missiles, grenade launchers and
blaster-cannons used.
The unit is relatively simple to implement. It will test
the 'must-align-with-target' coding. |
