Overview
The Hercules is a field sapper/repair unit that has the chassis of a dozer fitted with a crane. It is plated with extremely thick composite alloy armor and uses tank tracks to move in order to protect the main body against the mines below it. Its main function is to clear mines to make a safe way for other vehicles. To do this, the vehicle has an on-board metal detector all over its chassis to detect metal cases of the mines embedded inside or special sensors to detect explosives' raw material. Then, the vehicle will simply hurdle towards the minefield, using its enormous and tough dozer blade to rig the mines to explode without harming the vehicle. What's more interesting is the crane on its front that has a claw that can be controlled like a human controlling his hand, making it useful in field repairs, especially doing repairs while on the move. If confronted by infantry units, it will use its machine gun to defend itself.
