Fast Attack Vehicle  (TL 8)  Version 1.0
    Copyright 1996 by Lan Kelly (CyberWere@ConnectI.com)

        The FAV is a military dune buggy designed for high speed off-road
    recon.  It carries a variety of equipment for detection and defense.  Most
    of the detection equipment, the dockable laptop computer and the radio can
    be dismounted and hooked to an D or E cell. The two spare tires are mounted
    over the engine space to provide additional protection.  Monocrys side
    curtains & top provide protection when rolled down.  The small plastic
    vision slits in the curtains obstruct sight too much for most crews, so
    unless parked or under imminent threat the sides are often rolled up.
        The 40mm Auto EMGL [crit|sxp|HEAT-4d*2(10)|20|15|n/a|4000|4|20] is
    primarily anti-personnel but can be used against soft-skinned and lightly
    armored vehicles.  The 5.5mm Caseless MG
    [crit|cr|6d|15|13|1000|4500|16|200] is for anti-personnel.  Both weapons
    are accessible by standing in the gunner's seat and both can be dismounted
    or positions switched.
        Passive countermeasures including the curtains are a painted camo
    surface and basic IR cloaking.  Basic sound baffling is acoustic materials
    at the engine and exhaust.
        The rechargeable power cell is good for 2 hours of travel time plus
    firing 200 rds of grenades.  By running at low speeds (less than half) the
    power cell can be recharged in about 4 hours.  By alternating between the
    ceramic PP & the P cell the range of the vehicle can be extended greatly.
    Running on the power cell also reduces the IR and acoustic signature
    allowing a "silent" running mode.
        Uses 96JULY16 errata.  Open frame & Non-rigid armor adapted from GURPS
    Robots.  Spare tire per John Freiler.
