Purpose
After quite some time we proudly present the M35 Heavy Mako.
This heavy armoured vehicle can be crewed with 2 to 4 people.
On top is an array of turrets. Which is inspired from the ME
Universe.

In order to have a land vehicle capable to be dropped from a
space ship, the Mako has thruster packs. This provides a
continuous exploration from orbit to the surface and back,
without any additional craft but only up to 1g. During such
a voyage encounters could be hostile, for that case the Heavy
Mako is an wheeled combat vehicle. The main task, vehicle
combat is covered by 3 turrets on top of the crew cabin. The
secondary role, infantry transportation, comes in the 2
passenger seats besides the 2 control seats. A survival module
takes care of health problems and some infantry gun stands
provide self-defence for every crew member. The cabin is
pressurised and can be reached by a ramp and a door on each
side. In summary you can be a mechanised infantry unit.

To make the tank fit into most ships and land on planets on
its own. It has to be light and slim, for that reason no
large cargo is available. On its place is a large hydrogen
tank and an O2/H2 generator. The general hight of the vehicle
to the ground leads to the key feature of an all-terrain
vehicle. With the help of the thrusters even the highest
inclines are possible to drive until you roll over.

To dock the Heavy Mako in space, on a ship, you have to be
aware of the missing thrusters to the front. In order to hold
control of the velocity, only turn after a complete stop.
Line up to your hangar bay or target it with the nose of the
tank. And give a little push with the thrusters, 10 m/s to
30 m/s should work. Wait until you are on top of the bay
floor, activate the artificial mass and deactivate the
thrusters. Drive normally on the floor, but be aware of
the smaller mass and gravity in space.
