The Dragoons use a version of their main Covenanter III ACV AFV as the basis of this Armoured recovery vehicle. The one piece, cast hull is mounted with a dozer blade at front and a crane at the rear.

The Covenanter's turret has a Heavy Laser mounted to replace the 10cm powergun. This is a powerful cutting tool and a useful weapon.

Fans are ducted, armoured and hidden and the Beryllium re-enforced plastic skirt is easy to maintain.
