-cost: 723,000 pistoolas per unit (approx. $800,000 USD) 
-power: 8.1 liter 4-rotor SCORE internal combustion engine, tuned to run on regular gasoline, but will run acceptably on almost any combustible liquid (note: Kelvini-Republic Arms cautions against using high-volatility fuels, and will not be held responsible for damages or loss of life as a result of experimentation using such fuels) 
-fuel capacity: the hekash carries enough fuel (assuming ordinary gasoline) for 12 hours of normal operation. 
-maneuverability: the Hekash rides on 6 main tires, with 2 high-pressure outriders under the cannon-mount to absorb residual recoil. top speed over paved surfaces is approximately 85 km/h. over unpaved, hard surfaces there is a negligible reduction in speed, provided the surface is relatively free of large debris or major fluctuations in surface attitude. over soft terrain (sand, snow, mud, etc.), the Hekash's top speed is reduced to just over 56 km/h. 
-armament: 255mm auto-loading ballistic cannon 
-Rate of Fire: 1.7 rounds per 10 seconds (10.2 rounds per minute) 
-Magazine: The Hekash can carry 120 rounds of ordinary HE-255 ammuntion, or 180 rounds of AIC (Airburst-Illumination Cascade) visibility rounds, or 75 rounds of HEAP "Cratermaker" rounds for use against hardened targets, or any combined load thereof. 
-armor: 5" hardened steel overall, 3" additional steel around vital components and crew cabin. 
-sensors: basic optical and laser rangefinding systems, long-range scrambled communications for remote-relay of target data beyond sightlines 
-crew: 2: driver and gunner. space for a dedicated communications operator can be added, with requisite system interfaces, for an additional 28,000 pistoolas (but the cabin is hot and cramped then.) 


The Hekash is a fire-support vehicle, designed to be positioned as much as 27 miles from it's target before using a communications link to remote observers to accurately zero in on it's target and deliver it's ordinance. note that the hekash CAN fire while in motion, but this is not recommended. 

The AC-255 "Thunder" main gun uses a specialized floating-barrel system, coupled to a sophisticated recoil management mechanism to limit the amount of time. the widening of the barrel near the muzzel end is this system, which feeds a portion of the exhaust gasses rearward around the barrel. maximum range is achieved with this system deactivated, but the unit will generally have to re-aim after five rounds expended in this configuration. 

*Hekash comes from the Old Kelvinis words Heka (meaning 'to throw'), and Sha (meaning 'Stone'). Hekash was the word used to describe Kelvini Siege Engines during the dark ages. Kelvini-Republic Arms feels this name is an accurate approximation of the KSRA-4's Mission Profile.
