There’s an aboriginal horde out there massing for an attack. Here's another land craft at our disposal to meet that threat. The RDA's primary assault vehicle for nearly all terrain---the GAV JL-723.

They call it the Swan because the platform is gyrostabilized so when the it travels over rough terrain, the gunner platform is stabilized. The extended gunner's chair can rise up to 3.6 meters above the vehicle to see over obstructions between the gun and the target, like the long neck of a swan.

The gunner must ride high and unprotected, making him a primary target for the enemy and vulnerable to the smallest attack which is why it is also nicknamed the Hellrider due to the fact that the gunner has to rely on his body armor to keep him safe. The six tires also have little armor protection, but are themselves made from a hybrid polymer blend, with titanium strands woven throughout, which make them very tough to puncture.

To protect the driver and spotter, a rudimentary roll bar exists, but it's rare that a Swan rolls over due to the stability of its gyroscopic system. Should it ever happen, gunners have learned from experience it is better to release the safety harness and jump clear, if there is enough time. Also called the swan due to its extendable gun platform. . . . . from AVTR.com

Mission:

To draw fire, suppress fire, and provide a moving target less expensive than an AMP suit or gunship.
