By default, it is configured as a light gunship in terms of armament, but can also take on different modules. As a result, it may be used as a troop carrier, light gunship, or heavy lift vehicle. As a light gunship, it is not only fast, but more nimble than it looks; it is well capable of high maneuverability due to its propulsion systems and can quickly turn to face threats or retreat. With the proper attachment, the vehicle easily serves as a troop transport which can carry an entire platoon of power armored infantry into combat, while with the heavy lift module may carry heavy vehicles and shipping containers. Perhaps most importantly, |

The HLM has the gunship dispense with the common belly slung bay and instead attaches to it a heavy lift module capable of carrying even tanks. As a result, it carries no troop complement, but still retains its basic armament. One of the key differences however, is that the tail gun is either set to automatically defend the vehicle, or be controlled by the co-pilot. Though the added weight of carrying vehicles affects its handling, the speed and acceleration is only marginally affected. | The HLM has the gunship dispense with the common belly slung bay and instead attaches to it a heavy lift module capable of carrying even tanks.
