HEMTT M989A4 Zeus (Multiplayer Friendly, under 650 bricks)

Description
Based on the M985/A4 MLRS support truck, this 5-seat off-road heavy duty truck is modified with 4 heavy machine guns, which are individually controllable by each passenger.

The M985's 8x8 drivetrain gives it a slight advantage in some terrain versus the M1084's 6x6, but the M1084 is much more maneuverable. Both are extremely heavy, an RSV and trailer with 2 MLRS pods each weighs in at just under 55,000 lbs. The M985 weighs nearly 110,000 lbs fully loaded with 2 pods on the truck and 4 on the trailer.

When the engine is more stable, I plan to make accurate versions of each o
