EQUIPMENT

DESCRIPTION
The TAM-6 anti-aerospace crawler is a tracked combat vehicle manufactured by Tactical Armor & Machines Co., a Verpine-run company which produces various military land vehicles. The TAM-6 is one of their more popular products, and is designed as a mobile anti-air platform, mounting a dual medium laser turret on its roof which can engage aerial targets.

Although the TAM-6 is equipped with its own targeting computer, the vehicle's onboard sensor package is relatively limited. The vehicle is meant to be tied into an external sensor feed, which supplies the onboard computer with more precise targeting data. Typically, several TAM-6 vehicles will be tied into a single long-range sensor vehicle via physical data lines, taking up static positions to engage incoming aircraft.

The TAM-6 has a crew of 3, including a driver, a commander and a gunner. 4 others can also be carried, typically security personnel to guard the vehicle and its consorts when parked. Notably, though its armament is potent, the TAM-6's turret cannot depress far enough to engage enemies on the ground, making these 4 security guards crucial. Up to a ton of other cargo can also be carried.

Though not as versatile or powerful as some other anti-aerospace platforms, the TAM-6 is low cost, and still potent when paired with a decent sensor system. They are most often found in service to various cash-strapped Outer Rim military organizations.

LEGALITY
Restricted. The TAM-6 is indisputably a military vehicle. Civilian ownership is heavily regulated on most worlds.

INTENT
To create a standard anti-aerospace vehicle.
