Description
The Silencer is the Nuclean Army's replacement for the Hexwalker in the vehicle fleet. Designed to be highly mobile and carry heavy firepower, it fills the role of self propelled mobile artillery.

Dimensions
Length: 30 ft
Width: 16.5 ft
Height: 10.25 ft

Armament
Plasma mortar launcher (can also operate in beam mode)(elevation 50 deg to -7 deg)
2 missile batteries (24 missiles)(can also be loaded with mortar shells)
Phased array laser active defense system (3 arrays)

Protection and Damage Control
The hull is covered with special paint that is capable of changing color based on driver settings, and can adopt complex patterning for extremely effective camouflage.
The Silencer chassis is built of metanium armor, which is then thicker on the exterior walls. Over the armor is the standard energy shielding, which is capable of stopping several hits from other tank guns, and is all but invulnerable to weaker fire.
Armor ranges from 6 inches to 1 foot thick on the vehicle.
When the platform does take damage, several small internal robots can make repairs, although this takes time.

Crew
The Silencer takes a single pilot, who takes the role of commander, designating targets and firing the main gun and missile batteries. Assisting him with targetting is the onboard AI, who drives the vehicle and operates the phased array lasers to deal with distractions.
If needed, they can switch roles or one can take over the functions of the other if needed.

Sensors
A complicated matrix of embedded sensors in the hull allows the pilot and AI complete awareness of everything around the vehicle. These sensors include passive radiation sensors as well as acoustic, magnetic, gravimetric, and radar detection systems.
This large amount of sensory information is processed by the vehicle's AI, and is displayed for the pilot via their helmet, allowing them to look around and see what's outside the vehicle, as if it was transparent.
In addition to the onboard sensors, the vehicle carries two aerial drones, used for spotting and extra situational awareness.

Powerplant and Propulsion
A compact hypermatter reactor provides power for the vehicle, which is propelled by multiple antigravity engines, with some redundant engines in case the main ones are damaged.
It is capable of travelling up to 100 MPH, and can hover up to 50 feet.
