The Armored Freerunner was considered one of the most powerful assets of the Rebel CAV arsenal. It got its name from the freely rotating gun platforms mounted on the repulsorcraft. These platforms were designed to accommodate various kinds of weaponry, based on mission requirements. Armed with stripped down anti-personnel and anti-vehicle batteries, each vehicle could be equipped with anything from two to four weapon batteries, based on its battlefield assignment. Each weapon had the option of being operated by individual gunners or linked together to save manpower.
