Description
Purpose
A small trailer with a single gatling turret, and Whips Turret Radar script to be used either to give the vehicle towing it some additional firepower, or as point defense.

There are hinges at the front and rear that function as tow hitches (conveyored), allowing connections to either trucks or other trailers. As this is not designed as an autonomous vehicle, each trailer is controlled primarily through the use of labeled buttons, although an RC block is still present. Check the "Movement & Control" section for a list of the buttons and their functions.

1. ISL - Iktis RO-100a Light Truck

Maybe at some point, but you could also just attach a solar recharge trailer to the rear via the tow hitch:

I think it would be a good idea to produce one of those with solar panels, that way, you can quickly produce a few of those, move then where they are needed and just forget them.
