I've found old papers with this grav APC I designed for a mercenary unit many years ago.
Beware it's not an AFV, not even an IFV, just an APC. It was desinged to have a role similar to the WWII German SdKfz 251: to take the troops to battle zone and give, at most, light support, but not to directly confront enemy by itself:
EDIT: Price includes the 20% discout for standard vehicle
EDIT(2): As in all MT vehicles I design, I use the HR that loaded weight includes 0.1 ton per crewmember/passenger END EDITs
Hystory: This grav vehicle was designed for the use of police, with the auto-GL being used to shoot stun or lacrimogen gas grenades and without the MRLs.
Its low price for a grav APC made it an alternative for mercs for use against low TL or not too well equiped troops, even while its soft skin made it too vulnerable to be used for direct fire, and lack of sealing made it only useful in hospitable environments. The MRLs were added for more indirect support to troops and SAM use.
By forfeiting the passenger space, it can easily be converted to various missions.
