TMCC30 - Desert Fox
Intro
Welcome to 1986! And production for the new documentary "Desert Fox" have just started, focusing on the famous First Dalluhan-Archanan war, also known as the "Technical War". The war started from a mining right disputation on the local uranium deposits between the 2 countries, the Archanans, and the Dalluhans. At first the Archanans were able to storm into Dalluha thanks to their armor, but here's where you came in, just so happen the Dalluhans found a bit of oil in their land and the Fruinians (not europeans) want to get into some oil business. So they decided to "sponsor" them with some new toys.
Brief
Basically the production team want a good-looking technical, reliable and easy to run
Not a tank, APC, IFV, or anything else, but something still that looks deadly as hell

Priorities
3 Stars:
- Appearance: Although we're making a documentary, we still want to get more audiences with a imposing and seemingly unstoppable vehicle. A boring ass car would probably even loss us audience (not very good)
- Approximate/Service Costs: As the car was used by a less developed country at the time, their military's budget isn't the grandest, so don't expect them to be happy when the vehicle is as costly to run as a tank (the team is using a few of them from the war)
- Drivability: Although very passionate on defending their homeland, the Dalluhans aren't racing drivers and mostly don't have proper training on driving so a more drivable vehicle would be very nice
2 Stars:
- Offroad: As you can see, the Dalluhan-Archanan border is a huge desert, so a offroad capable vehicle would work way better, also getting stuck in sand would probably be very detrimental to your health from a few FAB-250 bombs from a Archanan plane
- Utility: the Dalluhans also wanted something that could carry enough heavy weapons to punch through Archanan defense, so a Dakar truck with an AK47 strap to it won't work
- Reliability: Again, because of the small budget for her military, Dalluhans don't want to spend too much money on repairing the vehicle. Also very bad for your health for the car to break down in the middle of nowhere as listed above
1 Stars:
- Safety: although there's rarely anything but sand, it's still a good thing when the crew and the equipments could survive when they hit a palm tree or a rare rock, training for all the fancy new toys is a time consuming task after all
