AT-RV

Short for All-Terrain Robotic Vehicle.

The HASF needed a force scout vehicle and a small escort for its Marines and Jaeger squads as the roamed through through the cites of the Human Alliance. Raytheon came up with this thing: a small robotic vehicle as long as a Smart ForTwo and as tall as a Marine's chest- that worked excellently in both roles.

Capacity[]

None.

Sensors[]

The AT-RV “sees” where its going via four E/O cameras, two in the front and two in the back. It's M2 HMG is guided by an independent E/O camera, and also has a rudimentary IFF interrogator and a 360-degree E/O sight to scan its environment.

Anti-Surface Weaponry[]

M2 HMG[]

The oldest weapon in HASF service today, the M2 .50cal HMG is soldiering past 135 years of age, and yet nothing major in the design of the gun has changed. It's large bullets provide a good anti-ballistic vest punch to this little robot.

Anti-Aircraft Weaponry[]

The M2 HMG can point upwards to a maximum of 75 degrees.

Upgrades[]

Protection[]

Ceramic Plating[]

Improve the armor of the AT-RV with Ceramic Plating inserts on its frontal armor plate and two manually-extendable shields. This allows them to soak up the kinetic firepower of a 20mm AP round before failing.

Protection[]

Remember this: whenever HASF uses robotics, it normally means that those units are made to be far more expendable that human-operated ones. Therefore, AT-RVs are only protected by a small-arms-proof layer of inexpensive Aluminum and Kevlar weave.

An interesting feature of the AT-RV is that it has manually-extendable shields as its side armor. These shields can be deployed by a Marine or Jaeger squad to provide them with mobile cover- fully expanded, these shields can cover two Marines standing side-by-side from the shins all the way up to the chest.

Locomotion[]

The AT-RV rolls along with six Michelin airless tires with independent suspension. Hub motors are used to power each wheel individually, which churns out a total of 120 horsepower. A large high-energy-density Lithium-Ion battery pack stores enough electricity to power the vehicle for 24 hours.
