==Overview:==
Looking more like a horse or other draft animal than its
namesake, the Meerkat is a heavy scout designed to find and
pinpoint enemy units.
==Capabilities:==
The Meerkat's Rosalyn Electronics Inc. Active Probe and Light
TAG make it a useful spotter, while its .303 Vickers Machine Gun
allow it to deal with hostile infantry and light battle suits. It
is, however, woefully under-gunned for a suit its size and is
reliant on a top speed of 43 km/h and a thick skin to protect it
from any serious attack.
==Deployment==
Not very popular due to its minimal weaponry and lack of
hands, the Meerkat is only used by dedicated scout units when they
need something that can take a little punishment.
