no one can ever quite tell if the Chingis Khan is brilliant or completly insane. but as the Malvina Hazen required more and more war materiel for her pillaging across the inner sphere she began to turn to the past. Olivetti weaponry already used to produce the J Edgar Hovertank before the clan invasion, it was only a matter of having the line transfer resources away from the Shamash hovercraft they were producing instead.
the frame and engine are identical to the Star Leauge vintage hovercraft, but the armor is clan spec Ferro Fiberous, offering more protection in the flanks. the clan Edgar chose the machine gun model of the hovercraft to upgrade, using a quartet of AP gauss Rifles in addition to the Clan Spec Lasers. these new hovercraft are being deployed as fast as they can be built to the Khan's Mixed Clusters, freeing "Real" Clan vehicles for front line support work.
