“If you are being tracked by this, hope that you are on our side or it will tear you up like Robert’s puns.”
-QRT Commander Nick

“Seriously. Cause they’re tearable? (smug face)”
-QRT Recruit Robert

“Can we shoot this guy?”

A practical drone in use for Convoy Patrol, Site Defense, or Tactical Offense, The XD-120 will track down anyone that it’s operator thinks should be eliminated. A simple joystick and a intergrated Visor is all it takes to control this monster. It also has a Quick Deployment Cruise mode to its operator too.

Weapons systems are the most interesting part here because of its Under Hull Turret. An XGau-7 Minigun with a 50mm Explosives launcher that can also do Airblasts to destroy targets with efficiency. If they managed to get a bead on this one, the Countermeasures and the 80mm lower hull armor would use their precious time up.
