Key features

• Vehicular Shields: In addition to its composite body armor, the Nova comes standard with Second Skin Shields for an extra layer of defense. However, the vehicle has weak spots that can be exploited in engagements. Specifically, the rear entry and exposed tracks are considered as vulnerable areas of the tank
• Long-Range Ballistic Cannon: The main gun of the Nova fires large-caliber artillery rounds with high accuracy and velocity. It is designed for both ground-to-ground and ground-to-air engagements
• Secondary Remote Turret: Installed onto the tank turret, a pair of Klaus & Werner CF-227 Badger Repeaters are intended against infantry and high-speed targets. The weapon can be replaced with any compatible size 2 counterpart. It should be noted that the Repeater weapons and with missiles are designed to be effective enough to deter a pilot in fighters like the Sabre and Hornet.
• However, the tank is not expected to be able to stand up against such ships for a prolonged engagement
• "Firebug" Energy Missile Launcher: Self-charging launchers that fire clusters of compressed energy to saturate ground targets with explosive blasts
• Multiple Crew Stations: The Nova features crew stations for a pilot, gunner, and support crewman. A large stand-up cabin provides ample room for longer missions and expeditions
• Equipment Stowage: The Nova has 1,000K uSCU of internal storage and multiple gun racks
