- Relies primarily on GSO shield and repair bubbles for improved combat power efficiency.
- Narrow profile makes it difficult to hit from the front.
- Large fuel reserves.
- Large quantity of internal boosters provides substantial thrust.
- Side-mounted HG1 cannons allow shots at high elevation, enabling long-distance indirect fire.

Weaknesses:
- Expensive.
- Nearly impossible to turn from a standstill, mediocre turning otherwise.
- Protruding frontal armor complicates climbing.
- Often fails to come to a complete stop and slowly drifts either backwards or forwards.
- Hawkeye blocks prone to breaking off from light damage.
- Long profile makes it easy to hit from the side.
- Incomplete shield coverage.
- Lopsided repair bubble coverage may heal enemies attempting to ram it.
- Only one human cab and only one AI module.
- AI module is exposed at front.
- Weapons complement is relatively light for its size.
- Slow rotation on HG1 turrets and limited traverse of autocannon create severe difficulties in engaging fast-moving targets.
- Side-mounted HG1 turrets have highly limited field of fire.
- Side-mounted HG1 turrets will often rotate into useless angles in an attempt to fire at enemies on the tech's flanks and rear, which is further compounded by their slow rotation.
- Looks its best only with Sharmoni's Black Chrome skins.
