Vehicle Name: "Vulture" FRSPH Hover Bike M-1
Type of Vehicle: Fast Response Scouting Personal Hovercraft
Max High Speed: 250mph, usually a steady pace however.
Armor: Little to none for itself, none for its rider. The Vulture's driver seat can be enclosed depending on model, customization, or operating environment and can be configured for someone to ride shotgun. Standard Vulture armament is an anti-personnel APG-2 "Thumper" Grenade Launcher.
Operation Style: Automatic, with a throttle and brake however. Sensors on nose to assist in steering.
Manufacture: Government agents get these on top secret missions. They are pre-programmed with a bomb that will go off it the incorrect password is applied, or they are injured beyond function. Remote detonation and timed detonation re also available options to both the pilot and the controlling agency's headquarters.
The Vulture is a lightly-armored one-man hover bike primarily used for scouting and patrol, designed with speed and reliability in mind. Its Limited Gravity Hover Technology allows the bike to travel over rough terrain with little loss of traction or speed, and reach speeds up to 250 miles per hour, although an onboard computer and sensors mounted in the 'nose' of the craft keep it at a steady pace for most of the time. These features make the Vulture suitable for patrolling the vast wildernesses typically found around the Southwestern United States and Africa, along with snowy tundras such as Alaska and Siberia . They produce a humming whine as they move. Vultures are ill suited for heavy combat, given their light frame. However, they make excellent skirmishers, especially against lightly armored targets.
This technology is top secret to the public, but certain govt agencies have access to the specs.
