I've been thinking about a total redo of Cobra's HISS, a more 'real world' design that would be plausible. Looking through a book of armored vehicles throughout the world and history, I came across the USMC's LVTP-7, which also goes by AAV7-A1. The basic outline was sort of similar, and I liked that it was amphibious. So I drew up a rough sketch of what it would look like as the HISS - I streamlined the armor a bit and shortened the overall length. I added a larger turret and a place to mount a retractable missile launcher. The crew would be 5-6, and could hold a troop compliment of 8-10. Weapons would be 8 rockets and a 90mm gun, and could have a variety of crew-served weapons such as the Vulcan minigun, .50 cal. and MK-19 grenade launcher. Here's my first (extremely) rough draft:

I agree. It's a fantastic sketch with many possibilities, but it really does look like a Warthog with a Gun Turret.
Perhaps, rather than a HISS, it could be a Python Patrol vehicle/Transport? I say this as it would fit the whole "Stolen Joe Technology" theme. |
