'Tresspasser' Gunship, workhorse of the System-11 rebels. A good deal smaller than the scorpion, but slower and less agile. These are old school rotary wings, dug out from colonial caches or sold on the cheap by spacer black marketeers. The designs predates ubiquitous pd lasers on vehicles, so the rebels had to jury rig a bulky unit on the right side, and an accompanying cooling system on the left. The modifications make handling awful, but it beats getting nailed by smart-munitions.
The 20mm cannon on the bottom is only really effective at shooting soft targets and unarmoured vehicles, which the laser can also pull double duty on. Later in the conflict, they ended up being filled with choke rounds instead to break up sightlines and blind targets in preperation for rocket strikes.
Although its not a great flyer, the excellent visibility afforded by the bubble canopy and roomy interior means that while its not a beloved machine by pilots, its certainly not hated. Mechanics love the thing, though - colonial equipment is famously rugged and easy to work on (although the laser mount is a bit more of a pain to fix).

Scorpion Gunship in old monarchist livery. The bright orange is eyecatching an impressive - effective when the Sond Royalty were the only real military on the planet. After a string of especially brutal defeats at the hands of system-11 mercenaries however, the monarchists realised they needed something more subdued.
Typical of many monarchist vehicles fielded before the revoloution, the Scorpion is visually impressive, but too big for its role and a monster when it comes to keeping it maintained. Its high points are obscene amounts of thrust and an impressive defensive profile thanks to the large PD laser in the droop-snoot and the thick armour covering the whole thing.
When they were able to get flying, scorpions were a real menace to S-11 mech columns, capable of punting devastating amounts of fire downrange while shrugging off glancing return fire. Their poor logistical profile greatly hampered their effectiveness however and simply weren't able to fly enough to be hugely relevant outside of psychological warfare.

oh man. oh man oh man. would you guys believe this playlist started almost ten years ago? on fuckin 8tracks? on my second rewatch ever? jesus what was I... 16? christ.
anyways. wowza I started this when I was writing my angsty little one-shot on quotev back when i was like, a junior in high school. and here I am starting my third year of post-grad in a med program, a grownass adult, and i'm rewatching again after so so long and i actually felt inclined to reopen this mix and update it. of course of COURSE the (ecto)core is still there, just a few additions from more recent years to round it out and goddamn, do they fit perfectly or what?
from one antique Phan to the rest of you. thank you for keeping this show alive. it's time i shared this.
