M570 Series Armored Personnel Carrier
The standard ground transport of the USCMC, the M570 series APC carries a full marine squad into battle. Its interior is equipped with a tactical command center with links to each soldier’s helmet cams and bio signs. The exterior is armored with a laser absorbent paint job. In addition to chaff launchers and a small front-mounted turret, the M570 mounts a rotating main weapons package on a rail system that allows it to slide back and store in the rear of the vehicle when not in use, thus lowering the APC’s profile and heat signature. The air pressure in its large, armored wheels is controlled by the driver in order to facilitate better traction over soft terrain and allow the vehicle's chassis some additional clearance over rough ground—its low profile is perhaps the APC’s biggest weakness. Put a reckless driver behind the wheel in a rocky environment and you are likely to blow the transaxle. The amphibious and vacuum-tight APC is designed to be carried in the vehicle bay of a Cheyenne dropship, allowing it to be deployed nearly anywhere. While the M577 is the standard APC seen on the Rim, there are variants with different weapons configurations
Phased Plasma Pulse Cannon Turret, +1, 6 dmg, Extreme range, $54,000, Armor piercing
