Description
The Ranger was originally designed as an armored personnel carrier for use in urban combat environments, and it has been adapted to law enforcement duties. The vehicle's current version (UPU-3000) first appeared near the end of the Third Succession War in the Lyran Commonwealth. The Ranger is common in many urban cities in the Great House. It has been given the designation of UPU (Urban Pacification Unit). Though the vehicle was a failure as a military grade Armored Personnel Carrier, the Ranger's basic design has proven to be effective for law enforcement and corporate security in both the Lyran Commonwealth and Federated Suns.[1][2]
Equipment and Capabilities
The Ranger is equipped with a Machine Gun mounted in the turret with 1 ton of ammo. The vehicle also features two Sprayers mounted in the front and rear of the vehicle. The vehicle carries 0.86 tons of Sprayer fluid (water, other liquids).[1][2]
The Ranger has an Infantry Compartment that can carry up to a ton of personnel who can exit from a rear hatch. It also features an Armored Chassis and Control Modifications, 3 hand searchlights (15kg 2 front, 1 mounted on the turret) and sprayer "ammo" treated as liquid cargo storage.[1][2]
