"Laser Crusader, ready for engagement!'

-Laser Crusader leaving the armor depot

The Laser Crusader is the main medium tank of Theo Ross' Task Force Apollo, the high-tech weapons division of the Federation of Aquila sub-faction that replaces the Crusader Tank. This unit is planned to be voiced by, as with the Crusader, Kirk Thornton

History
"..."

-...

Staying true to his high-tech weaponry doctrine and his low-cost sense of economy, General Ross reconverted the Crusader I's armament and engine to replace them respectively with a powerful and pinpoint accurate high-caliber laser cannon and a radio-controlled locomotion system (there is a built-in radio wave receiver inside the tank to get the main base's control signal). The Laser Crusader is a laser-based Medium Tank, it has a small trapesium chassis with small tracks to move. The pilot inside is merely an engineer whose sole purpose is to maintain the tank in good condition. The Laser Crusader is an effective piece of modern military technology as it can blow enemy armor and structures wide open and thanks to its pinpoint accurate laser and its digital targeting cameras at the cannon's top to increase the firing precision, it will never miss its target. Besides that, the tank is rather cheap to build so it can be produced by the number.

Trivia

 * The Laser Crusader is one of the few units that changes it's visuals when gaining veterancy
 * The Design for the Laser Crusader is based on the Contra incarnation, though the chassis is from ROTR
