Description This machine represents one of the final stages in the evolution of terrestrial armor before the whole Mars situation blows up and the war against the “aliens” comes to Earth. These massive, heavily armored hovertanks, suspended by ground-effect fans and armed with devastating linear-accelerator and directed-energy weapons, are made possible only by the recent development of compact fusion powerplants. While more advanced technologies are still under secret development on Mars, these tanks represent the known apex of terrestrial military engineering.

With appropriate modifications to its air-breathing reaction-mass system, this tank has been reassigned to duty on Mars during the late-21st-century Qarmatian Crisis. The fact that the tank still retains its starkly visible terrestrial woodlands camouflage is an indicator of the desperate urgency with which it was redeployed.
