Budget Scout Car v0.4 (TL 08)

        This cheap military vehicle was build for the needs of 3rd world armies
    more concerned with internal security than real wars. It costs little more
    than a 'technical' (a pickup with a MG), but it is much more effective.
        The basic structure is quite standard, with an imported ceramic engine
    and foam-filled tires. That frame is covered with steel plates between 7 mm
    and 18 mm against small arms and mines. The driver has a simple IR sensor
    (0.67 miles nominal range) and light amplification. The scout car is armed
    with a MG (crit|cr|6d|15|13|1,000|4,500|16|1,000) and small rockets (with
    HEAT crit|sxp|4d*2(10)|20|6|n/a|1 mi.|3*1/30|3+6). Other notable gadgets
    are siren and flashlights for MP use, smoke dischargers, a GPS, two radios
    and a tow hook.
        The car is a TL08 vehicle [July 96 errata sheet].
