The EM-Ra9001-b2 Mobile Solar Amplification Platform, also known as the Ares Mobile Solar Cannon or simply Solar Tank, is an Andoran Experimental Vehicle designed by the University of Cairo's "Osiris" program. The idea was to create a more mobile version of the Solar cannon that Angstrom Defense had employed in its Athena Satellite.

The original tests failed quite terribly, as there was no way to power the amplification systems without a massive solar energy reserve like its orbital counterpart. Things changed, however, when the lead engineers of Osiris came up with a system that captured and stored solar energy with incredible efficiency. In the subsequent tests, their project worked - once the energy level increased to a specific point, it was fed through the amplification system in short bursts like a semi-automatic cannon.

Soon after the designs were sent to the Andoran Avalanche Pandora Divisions, they received a grant from Angstrom Defense to continue research in solar-based technology. They improved upon the original Ares design by adding frontal heat sinks, where excesses of solar energy could be stored. Combining this with modified Aegis Shield technology from the Athena, they were able to turn the front of the vehicle into a sizzling battering ram that could melt through walls. Better still, the modified shield projector could project a shield around the Ares at all other times, though it would not be able to do so while the battering ram is active.
