OVERVIEW
The TME-89 Landspeeder is a tiny ground-effect fusion-jet-powered craft designed for fast attack and reconnaisance, similar to the Savannah Master.
CAPABILITIES
Equipped for both anti-armor and anti-infantry operations, the Landspeeder carries a medium laser and two machine guns, which are shared between its two crew members. Protected in separate armored compartments, the pilot directs the Landspeeder and aims the fixed foreward medium laser while the Weaponry and Intelligence Systems Officer (WISO) aims the machine guns in limited-traverse hardpoints and analyses the data from the integral Beagle Active Probe.
VARIANTS
The primary production variant, the TME-89-A, carries a Guardian electronic countermeasures (ECM) suite instead of the active probe. This way, the TME-89-A can protect either heavier units or the rest of a Landspeeder platoon from electronic targeting systems. The less popular variants, the TME-89-B and -C, modify the weapons loadout. The -B acts as an anti-armor vehicle, mounting three medium lasers and a small laser in place of the machine guns and active probe. The -C acts as an anti-infantry vehicle, armed with three BattleMech-class fusion plasma flamethrowers and a single machine gun.
