Though outclassed by similar grav tanks, the Lynx provides a cheap but powerful option for rapid assaults. Its light armor protects it from small scale weaponry, while its sensors and speed allow it to evade more powerful enemies. The Lynx is principally used in fast strikes against softer targets though it also serves in reconnaissance and support roles when needed.
