BTR 184 class Troop Transport 6x6 Wheeled Truck (TECH LEVEL 7)[edit]

Based on the chassis of the BTR 184 class Troop Transport 6x6 Wheeled Truck, TL-7: This is a family of amphibious Wheeled Vehicles, the prime version was a commercial heavy cargo hauler built on Wiggins (world) with commonly available off the shelf technology. They are used in the Wiggins Regency Motor Rifle Regiments. They are sealed for amphibious operations but do not provide counter measures for NBC/CBR environments. This version is classified as a light vehicle for this technology level and as a result is much faster and suffers none of the suspension problems of its heavier brethren off road. They use an air breathing power plant and as a result can not maneuver in the absence of an atmosphere. They carry two crew a driver, and a gunner/commander. They can carry twelve passengers who dismount as an infantry squad.
