The Marksman FAC is the newest modernisation of the venerable Westland Lynx, a multi-purpose helicopter of Fereldan design that serves in a variety of different roles in many Hawke militaries even the Wakfu-Tilean Concordat. The Andoran Republic makes prominent use of it as a forward air controller and artillery observer. Its precision target designator allows friendly units to bring the full weight of their firepower to bear on anyone unfortunate enough to be marked by the beam.

In addition, most Marksman FACs operate in constant coordination with the nearest Andoran artillery detachment, allowing them to place a target marker on a structure which can then be bombarded by all available howitzers for a short period of time. Despite not having any weaponry of its own, a lone Marksman snooping around the base perimeter should never be dismissed as a non-threat, for its appearance may very well be the only warning prior to a devastating rain of shells.
