06 Sep Alien Units
The alien vehicles are a glimpse into the future. Fabricated from advanced composite materials and armed with magnetic accelerator guns, they are far superior to anything the humans can put into the field. The aliens have exploited this technological edge to their advantage, their early successes causing heavy losses amongst the UN troops.
The relative small size of the alien vehicles has led scientists to theorise that the invaders themselves are of smaller stature. The largest alien tank encountered so far has only been 80% the size of a Tiger II tank.
Shown here is a six-wheeled alien reconnaissance vehicle, dubbed “Thresher” by the UN.
