The fifth in line for the TS-14 series. This is Iris with links as the messenger of the Gods this is aptly the Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC) variant of the TS-14 Series of the Squirrel Industries MCV (Master Class Vehicle) project; where specialist vehicles are made from a common platform, in this case, known as the TS-14 platform.
Iris has a top speed of 99 MPH and 2 modes of travel:
- Quick Conventional Travel (QCT)
- Stealth Mode
With the two modes combining to give optimal performance at the cost of extra fuel.
QCT Mode revs the engine up close to max RPM and allows for operation of the headlights and taillights, while Stealth Mode reduces RPM/Horsepower, with the advantage of much quieter (albeit slower) performance with headlights/taillights turned off.
The APC is not heavily armed like the PSO and Scout fits of the platform. However, Iris does possess 2 forward facing machine guns, like the Scout fit and an RDW like the PSO fit. Countermeasure dispensers are situated at both the sides and front of the vehicle, giving a wide coverage should they need to be used for avoiding threats. As standard with the MCV platform, it also has 2 Ground to Air Launchers installed, which utilise custom Squirrel Industries missiles to lock on and dispose of enemy threats.
