The Wolverine is an 8 wheeled AFV which was specially engineered for Urban Combat. With a relatively low weight of 29 tons and a 8x8 steering system it is very fast and agile. One of it's big advantages in urban combat scenarios is the fact that it can use it's advanced thermal imager to see through walls and rubble, reducing the likelyhood of an ambush. It can also see through street corners, enabling it to see other AFV's or tanks. The thermal imager provides a 360 degree view, has a range of almost 2km, and it's sensitivity is adjustable.

Yeah, and exactly where do you cram 4 troops on that?

Look, it's JUST A PIC and it's the closest one to what I wanted to represent it without using a gay ass paint-shop drawing.

And the rear end of any vehicle is almost always weak.
