Description

The HARP (Hovering Armored Reaper Platform) is a highly mobile hover tank that comes equipped with 4 high performance thrusters pointed down at 45 degree angles, this makes it handle more or less like a helicopter with no altitude. It can top speeds over 480 kph, and features a computer system that assists in stability as well as emergency maneuvering should the pilot fly at decidedly unsafe velocities towards an immovable object... Its speed combined with firepower can make for a very difficult opponent.

For weapons the HARP comes with twin seeker pods, both sporting 8 laser guided rockets each. The pods are mounted on top of hydraulic servo neck joints meaning they can aim independently but have limited traverse angles towards the turret's front of roughly 45 degrees. Its primary armament is the Reaper particle accelerator that can punch holes through even the toughest armor. Since its main weapon requires charge times to fire it can be fired prematurely in emergencies, this is however not recommended. If the gun overheats there is a 50% chance the charging device can start on fire, extra power must be diverted to the guns cooling system if it doesn't, potentially causing the thrusters to loose ignition.

Its armor is in general is good enough to stop small arms fire and some higher caliber weapons, however the thrusters are very exposed. This hover tank relies mainly on its speed and firepower for surviving a battlefield. With its hyper sensitive gyroscopes it can easily control full axis rotation, the turret is also equipped with a lighting fast turret gear system and advanced auto targeting the particle cannon can stay locked onto a target even if the hull is spinning at excessive speeds.

A fun drawing I did while in a last class for a summer, I wanted something that had some funny looking missile launchers.
