Description When need arises to transport troops trough warzones, nothing is safer than the Federation APC. This sturdy tanks have 4 independent tracks, each one with its own traction, rotation and level, allowing a soft ride in almost any terrain. The armored belly of the APC allows it to float and cross shallow bodies of water without much difficulty, despite the weight makes it difficult to maneuver in deeper waters.

The cockpit is extremely sealed, and can withstand anything lesser than a direct nuke. A small tower and a hatch over it allows the fast evacuation of the cockpit, and the presence of a gunner at the front of the tank.

The transport hold can carry up to 32 humans or Dar'Ut. The walls, roof and the back of the tank can "unfold" in various sections, allowing a fast deployment as troops can go in or out by the back or side folding doors, or even by the movable roof. Small openings allows troops to fire while inside the vehicle, and can be closed to keep the air recycling and pressure in case of chemical or biological attack.

Um, I don't mean to be rude or anything, but wouldn't it be "person*nel*" carrier? Also, cool design.

I love the "legs" of tank treads on this thing. Almost reminds me of an AT-AT walker crossed with the Scorpion tank from Halo. It would be kinda nice though to see it with a gun on the tower thing, like a mounted machine gun of the type commonly put on a Humvee, or maybe a futuristic plasma or Gauss weapon of sorts.

Oh yes! I would do a weapon there, but I couldn't decide between a recoilless rifle or a heavy machinegun

Heavy machine gun is a good general-purpose weapon.

It reminds me of a cross betweeen the A5 Juggernaut and the ATOT from Star Wars
