Na-K16a

The Na-K16 is a half-track designed by NAM for use by the Democratic Imperium of Nepleslia in YE 33 as a multi-purpose transport for rough terrain.

The design has also been used as the basis for:

History and Background

In YE 33 Nepleslia was looking to increase the capabilities of its conventional ground forces to deal with an increase in small scale incursions in and around Funky City. The Half-track’s role in this plan is to replace the older Nepleslia Truck and a variety of other non-standardized transports used by Nepleslian forces with a single reliable design.

About the K16

The K16 borrows heavily from the Na-K14’s body, having a similar internal setup with driver, passenger, two rear seats and a gunner’s position in a fully enclosed cabin protected by transparent durandium windows. The cabin has A/C, comfortable chairs, radio, and cup holders sufficient to keep five people comfortable for an extended period of time.

The tires and tread are specially designed to be forgiving to roads to help keep Nepleslia’s infrastructure intact. Ride height can be adjusted to better deal with rough terrain. Half-Track is also capable of floating, and can ford rivers or cross water, but tends to capsize in rough water. Multiple Na-K1-P3100 wheels of different sizes are used in the drive train, and covered with hub caps, ten are used to drive each track with 2 engines in each 'wheel'. Four are in the front, covered with heavy duty off road tires. The halftrack can also operate on planet’s without an atmosphere, though it does not contain its own life support systems which require the driver to wear a space suit. Since the drive train is electric, it runs off the vehicle's internal battery and uses the combustion engine only to extend range, naturally this engine can't be used without available atmosphere.
