Description (Specifications)
The KE006 Gruneg class Speeder, TL-10: The vehicle's crystaliron armor sheaths the chassis to levels of protection equivalent to starship hull metal and better. This design is sealed with life support for the crew and passengers in vacuum and protected forces roles. A stock fusion power plant is installed for movement and to power the plasma gun. There are two magazine fed TAC missile launchers in the turret. The design features a VRF Gauss gun for infantry suppression and point defense. A pair of laser rifles allow both missile launchers to paint and engage their own targets. The 8 passengers have full life support (proof against CBR/NBC threats) and exit via an airlock to the rear of the vehicle.

History & Background (Dossier)
The KE006 Gruneg class Speeder was designed and manufactured at TL–10, these vehicles are manufactured for the Korsumug Empire in Mavuzog and Theta Borealis Sectors. They have TL–10 point defense fire control systems for the heavy energy weapons. Four vehicles is equivalent to a platoon of 40 marines. The dismounted marines tend to spot for the target designated missiles to extend their engagement envelop. They use RADAR for longer range target acquisition but if jammed, they switch to a shorter ranger LADAR system. The LADAR struggles against smoke and the homing missiles are less effective against vehicles with ECM.
