Greetings, Toradoch Defense Systems has delivered the Spyke Attack Pod. Based on the earlier EYOT design and incorporation new technologies, the Spyke offers groundtroops slow moving protection from it's chin mounted 'spitball' cannon. The perimeter of the craft is mounted with high output deflector cones, allowing the Spyke to absorb heavy beam and projectile fire while escorting troop advancements. The pilot 'sees' by a specially integrated flight helmet that synchs to a relay node stretching behind the head, relaying information from dish sensors and the camera mounted beside the cannon.

		Re: New MOC: Spyke Attack Pod
Sweet! At first glance, it looks like the spikes go around the top and back of the pod, but when I noticed that they wrap around the front, it makes for a very aggressive design. Also like the hardware on the front. And I see you used the (...) (22 years ago, 15-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)
