Description

The Wheeled Scout is more of a category of vehicle than a particular model of vehicle. They usually have three axles with six wheels. They have a good overland speed and are useful for a wide variety of missions. They usually carry a driver and a gunner. The gunner operates the medium laser using a sighting and firing device mounted in his seat at the rear of the vehicle. [4]

Weapons and Equipment

The Wheeled Scout mounts a single medium laser along with the required heat sinks and power amplifiers to fire it safely. It also has a half ton of cargo space for carrying supplies, an additional crew for long range patrols, or different equipment.[5]
