Maybe above that rock?

Project Muzzy is a tank destroyer with sniper ambitions. The dual-arm system allows for switching between Tank Mode, which is more stable, and the Sniper Mode, which provides a better vantage point for long-range firing.

If one cannon wasn't enough, this design packs two! There are two hardpoints on the raiseable platform which can have their weapons swapped for different combat requirements.

It has the same wheelbase as Project Scorpio but is designed to go faster. Where it's going, it doesn't need roads!

The Adaptive System has passed tests on all kinds of terrain, from open fields to rocks, and urbanised areas to nuclear fallout zones. Unfortunately, due to a lowered budget, we could not test it on other planets.

Features:
- AMC adaptive quadrupal-tread system
- Independent left/right tread control
- Two cannons, 14 rounds each
- Cannon auto-reloader
- Cannon elevation, by about 8 ft
- Automatic radio channel scanner
- AMC/NEVEC energy system support
- Jundroo Technologies* parts!
- Technology borrowed from alien ships
- Radiation-proof
- Closeable ports for engine and cockpit
- Additional fuel/air tank support
- Cool white and black paintjob (unoriginal)
- Destroys phones from the inside

*everyone's favorite company!

COMBAT ADVICE:
- This vehicle provides large amounts of firepower, but significantly lacks in armor.
- Difficult to handle cannon at close range. Use this vehicle at long range, and never for close quarters combat.
- Use the terrain (and barrel elevation) to your advantage. Skilful use of tread modes and shooting over obstacles can keep you alive.
- Always remember that this vehicle is twice as fast as conventional tanks, and can traverse rocks and sand better than most heavy combat machinery.
- This vehicle features closeable ports and can carry air tanks if you want some exo-planetary action. It is also radiation-proof and can fit air filters!

FAQ:
Q: Why use wheels?
A: Because hover drives are too fragile and expensive, and mechanical legs are too slow.
Q: What's with the arrows (chevrons)?
A: Try manually reloading a missile launcher without the arrows.
Q: Why not an armored cockpit?
A: Don't worry, we use alien technology for that.
