Cougar

Cougar

The Cougar is a lightweight, fast and highly flexible armored vehicle to be used in the upcoming game Halo Wars by UNSC forces. Although heavy armor fire will blow the Cougar away quite easily, this vehicle is highly effective holding off enemy armored vehicles while the slower armored ones are on transit. The Cougar had gained infamy in several urban tactical situations prior to the deployments in the war with the Covenant.

It appears as a somewhat standard armored fighting vehicle with a pair of wheels up front and four in the rear. It bears a small turret that mounts two autocannons and a wind screen on its forward body with two side windows for maximum visibility for the driver.

The Cougar primary fonction as the same of all armored personnal carriers (APC), he will use his twin 40mm Autocanons only if the ennemies are on his road, but the Cougar is not build to be a assault Vehicle. It's also the UNSC groud unit who can carrying the most number of troopers. (His fonction is similar to the modern Stryker or BTR APC.).
