DESCRIPTION
The Athlit Beachstormer Connector, or BSC, is the first landing vehicle created by Halcyon Arms. Whereas older LCACs are only able to carry a single tank, the BSC is able to carry four to six main battle tanks. What it makes up for in weight-capacity it loses in deck-space that an equal-sized LCAC.
The Athlit Beachstormer Connector utilizes air-filled foam treads lined with kevlar as "paddleboat treads" allowing the vehicle to traverse both water and the vast majority of terrain with less pressure than a human footstep, including mud and ice.
