R-12 Recon Robot
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Vehicle Type: 	Wheeled Light Mech
Producer: 	Spyrius Alpha Mech Works
Mass: 		30 Tons
Top Speed:	69 kph
Armament: 	2 Micro Lasers
		4 Extended Range Small Lasers
		1 Flamer
Crew:		1 Pilot
Sensors:	1 Spyrius Enhanced Vison IR/Optical Tracking System
		1 Spyrius Laserworks Laser Radar  

Description:	Basically a modified utility mech the Recon Robot sports a pair of 
		heavy manipulator claws capable of crushing most reinforced armour.
		Extra defense is given by the arm and hip mounted lasers as well as
		a flamer mounted on the Robot's pivoting head. The head also contains
		sophisticated imaging and sensor systems giving the robot the ability
		to spy on targets while remaining mostly behind cover. The two
		greatest drawbacks of this design however are the low ground clearance
		and open pilots platform, which prevent the vehicle from operating on
		rough terrain and in high threat environments.

Mod-A
~~~~~

Vehicle Type: 	Wheeled Light Mech
Producer: 	Spyrius Alpha Mech Works
Mass: 		35 Tons
Top Speed:	69 kph
Armament: 	2 Micro Lasers
		4 Extended Range Small Lasers
		1 Flamer
Crew:		1 Pilot
Sensors:	1 Spyrius Enhanced Vison IR/Optical Tracking System
		1 Spyrius Laserworks Laser Radar  

Description:	This modification of the standard recon robot offers performance
		matching that of the original but with an eclosed armoured cockpit
		making the vehicle much more survivable and answereing the biggest
		pilot complaint.


Mod-B
~~~~~

Vehicle Type: 	Wheeled Light Mech
Producer: 	Spyrius Heavy Industries
Mass: 		38 Tons
Top Speed:	67 kph
Armament: 	2 Micro Lasers
		2 Extended Range Small Lasers
		2 Extended Range Medium Lasers
		1 Flamer
Crew:		1 Pilot
Sensors:	1 Spyrius Enhanced Vison IR/Optical Tracking System
		1 Spyrius Laserworks Laser Radar   

Description:	Spyrius Heavy Industries competing modification of the standard
		Recon Robot has been ordered in far greater numbers than the A
		Mod. This succes is due primarily to the improved terrain clearance
		afforded by the switch from a 6 wheeled to 4 (larger) wheeeld design.
		Also believing that a recon platform has very little need for melee
		type weapons engineers removed one of the complex manipulator arms
		replacing it with a weapons pod carrying 2 medium lasers.
