Rissian Tracked SPG (TECH LEVEL A)
Colonel Ryan uses ten of these self propelled guns in a single battery in Colonel Ryan's Rissian Regiment. Originally an 8cm hyper velocity mass driver was proposed and a prototype was built. Its 14 megawatt input necessitated a fusion power plant which sent the expense skyrocketing. So an autocannon in the same caliber was used instead to keep costs down. A massive suspension is included to keep the ground pressure down to facilitate rapid movement cross country. The vehicle can execute its own indirect fire missions using a crude fire direction center on-board. The vehicle has a crew of 3 (driver, gunner, and commander). It mounts a stabilized turret with tech A indirect fire control and point defense fire control, on the chassis deck.
