The UHAV-X Smilodon UltraHeavy Assault Vehicle is a domestically produced autonomous vehicle in Kalaron, designed to supplement an Expeditionary Army by drawing fire from the main body of the Force. Vehicles in this platform family are exceptionally hardy, equipped with large caliber weaponry, and highly mobile for it's size. Owing to the risks in creating such a large design, production of the line was only approved following the successful implementation of the original UHAV-X during the war in the Fascistic Empire of Kylodan, where the Smilodon prototype served as a decoy before rejoining the main force for their push on the Capital.
Additionally the body of the vehicle is lined with Remote Weapon Systems, MP-31 APHE discharge canisters and the "Thunder-Breaker" Soft and Hard-Kill systems. Designed to protect the Smilodon from Infantry, Vehicular and Missile threats, a datalink to several launchable drones allow the Central Control Computer to prime selected defenses and feed them target locations. Later models incorporated Ground-Level IFF receivers to allow it's incorporation in generalized units.

The armour of the Smilodon is of a layered design, being focused on the essential elements of the vehicle and their connections rather than monolithically placed, with a thin exterior armour wrapping around the rest of the superstructure. Much of the residual armour around the core components is focused towards shielding infantry from fire, after the SPYNX update. Although the composition remains secret, it can be assumed that large boron nitride ceramic slabs overlay the Internals, with sandwiched NxERA materials and seperated ceramic armour disks.
