The tank is based on the Age of War Augustus A-3 Tank, Brooks took the ancient design and updated it for the needs of the Duchy. The tank began production in 3076, and has since been disbursed among the League forces on station in the Duchy. Outside parties have inquired to Brooks for purchasing the tank for their forces. Brook Inc's has forwarded these requests to the government offices for approval.

The Tank is equipped with a ER Large Laser and two Gauss Rifles in a triangular mount in the turret. The Rifles have three tons of ammunition for sustained fire against long distance targets.
