The APC-94 Mako is an Aquarian Armoured Personnel Carrier designed to transport, cover, and provide fire support to up to 6 Marines in different settings using modular components. It was developed by F-Tech from 2069 to 2070, after which it underwent extensive testing in the Bastian mountain ranges.
Production History
Following the overhaul of the Aquarian Army's vehicles, a niche was opened for a cheap troop support craft taking advantage of advancements in networking, integration, and co-ordination. A contract was awarded to F-Tech, who produced 5 prototypes for the MoD for review. The vehicle was the first type to use the AEGIS (Artificial Electronic Guidance and Intelligence System) System, networking all craft equipped to the Vallian AI Ares, allowing for greater comunication and strategic coherency, as well as allowing weapons to be controlled electronically for greater accuracy.
