Description[]

The O1/MAT-3 is the Order main battle hoverdyne, a medium sized hoverdyne with a turret-mounted particle beam accelerator. The Lynx have good speed and maneuverability rating compared to the Crayven equivalent making it an ideal offensive hoverdyne for most combat situations.

The Lynx turret mounts the Shogata-PDX9 “Messenger” which is the latest version of the first energy based vehicle weapon ever produced. The weapons internal fusion reactor heats particles into plasma, which is accelerated out of the specially designed barrel against the target. The Shogata-PDX9 is incredible [sic] expensive and requires enormous resources for upkeep compared to conventional large caliber guns. In order to preserve the secrecy of the plasma accelerators, the Order have installed a remote controlled self-destruct device that overheats the fusion reactor, resulting in a massive and lethal plasma burst.

The turret does not have an adequate targeting computer for aerodyne tracking, making it defenseless against enemy aerodynes. Its electro-treated heavy polysteel-20 shockplates, mainly concentrated to the front and sides, are however capable of withstanding a great deal of punishment before collapsing.
