Official Documentation Of The
--Recovered Vehicles--
TX2112 "Riptide"||AT-TE Sickle|| AT-TE "Headhunter"|| AT-TE "TBD/Roughrider"|| A-A5 Pangolin MK2
[Aircraft & The Typhoon Have Already Been Documented in Group-C]
R-1 TX 2112 "Riptide"
The Younger "more reasonable" cousin to the TX-2112 "Typhoon" The Riptide is designed to be a highly mobile Skirmisher who's missiles are capable of engaging Air & Ground vehicles with twin rapid fire missile launchers. While its missiles may not inflict crippling damage to hostile vehicles it is definitely capable of long-range harassing & visually impairing it.
R-2 AT-TE "Sickle"
One of the most aggressive vehicles made under the Vehicle Initiative the Sickle's purpose is to bring the most frontal firepower possible to break through hostile lines where overwhelming hostile infantry numbers are preventing GAR personnel from reaching mission critical objectives, punching through lines to evacuate personnel/assets or any other situation where the enemy must be suppressed or completely shredded.
R-3 AT-TE "Headhunter"
A yet to be combat proven design, the Headhunter's goal is to find and hunt down hostile armour or grounded air. Welded to the under carriage is a GAR AI operated Anti-Vehicle cannon which is capable of firing in a 180 Degree cone from the tanks 9 oclock to 3, In some cases during training it being able to achieve 360 degree rotation after previously acquiring and maintaining a lock on enemy vehicles.
R-4 AT-TE Prototype "Roughrider" [Temporary Name]
Originally an iteration of the Sickle prototype the Roughrider was moved to its own design as it was able to fulfill another role in Convoy Escort much like the very successful AT-TE "Outrider".
The Roughrider has already been assigned to protection duties and has preformed well above operational standards especially when coupled with a Automated AT-TE Drone.
As is the standard with all AT-TE designs the Roughrider also possesses the ability to cover difficult terrain which includes wall-climbing during which it is still absolutely capable of providing effective fire.
R-5 A-A5 "Pangolin" MK2
Taking a different direction to its predecessor the Armoured Medical Vehicle MK1 the MK2 officially classified as a IFV goes on the offensive and specializes in infantry suppression with limited Anti Air capabilities, a emphasis has been placed on stability this time around and the MK2 is heavy enough that it routinely maintains level even through difficult terrain.
During deployments to the field the Pangolin has displayed extreme combat effectiveness with it being borderline unstoppable until hostile armour is brought in, even then its capable of using its speed and firepower to hold its own. During air raids the MK2 has also displayed capabilities to take on a rough max of 3 Vultures independently due to its turrets being able to track and provide enough flak to deter straight strafing runs.
--Closing Notes--
With our Ground and Air vehicles mostly completed with a few revisions and upgrades on the way, Sierra Company and the RSB are looking to expand the program into projects we cannot disclose as of yet but a 1st Design is already constructed and deployed in the field with data being gathered already. Senior Agent Salt will be conducting an Audit soon of all current projects, branches & operations relating to the Initiative up unto this point, After which additional resources may be granted.
