Overview:
Designed as an in house replacement to the venerable Scorpion Light Tank, the "Lorica"
Mobile Combat Platform Model No. 501, does an old design proud. Keeping with the original
weight and overall design, most of the changes are in with the internals. A new support
weapon, an upgrade to its armor package, swapping to a fuel cell engine, and shifting to a
wheeled chassis modernizes the old warhorse into a weapon of war more in line with Sovereign
Military Acquisitions production lines.
