Tortoise

The SHAV Tortoise Heavy Assault Vehicle, commonly known as the Tortoise, is a Shield Corporation heavy vehicle. It is the answer to the UNSC "Turtle".

Background
The Tortoise is a favored multi-purpose vehicle. It is designed to transport 30 troops across the battlefield. It can seat 2 drivers, 7 gunners and 30 passengers. While the main cannon can only shoot two rounds every few seconds, the machine guns and the SMMAC can be support fire even when the cannon is reloading.

The Tortoise houses an interesting track assembly, made of four tread assemblies, with one on each flank of the vehicle, front-to-back and one in the middle. This makes the Tortoise move slyly across the land. However, it is quite vulnerable to aerial attacks.
