OK, so I couldn't help myself - here is the Sentinel Class Recon'/Utility
Vehicle (RUV), based loosely on a Jeep, its purpose is to scout enemy territory,
act as a patrol vehicle and as a general runaround.

The Sentinel is lightly armoured and can deflect some small arms fire but relies
on its superior speed and agility to get out of trouble.

With a high ground clearance and four-wheel drive the Sentinel can traverse the
battlefield off-road without difficulty.

The Sentinel's windshield is capable of deflecting incoming rounds up to 9mm in
calibre.

The side of the Sentinel features heavy armour plate to protect the driver. The
rail to the rear can be used for mounting some of the heavier small arms in use
by the Tabletown Army.

To the starboard side, entrenching and repair tools are mounted as well as the
radio for the inbuilt comms unit.

As well as the inbuilt comms unit, the vehicle carries a separate walkie-talkie
as a backup.

For size comparison purposes, here is a Sentinel with an Aggressor MBT, an
Infiltrator APC and a Triumph LAV.

Here is the complete family of vehicles serving the Tabletown Armed Forces to
date - I deconstructed two Triumph LAVs to build the Aggressor, but the LAV
force will soon be restored to full strength again.

The Sentinel will soon become a familiar sight in the roads and streets of
Tabletown.

PLMKWYT!

(...) Andrew, Thanks for sharing all your military MOCs here! I'll just comment on all your vehicles in this one post, rather than in separate ones. I like them all! They have the sort of look that you'd almost expect LEGO to go with if they were (...) (17 years ago, 26-Nov-07, to lugnet.build.military)
