Overview[edit]

Design details[edit]

Main article: AV-49 Wasp

The AV-49H is a collaboration between Misriah Armory and Hannibal Weapon Systems on initiatives to evolve their existing offerings of weapon systems and vehicles.[1] This highly-advanced Wasp variant sports upgraded heavy armor, gauss repeaters, and experimental ion field bomb launchers[7] as well as higher speed and evasiveness than the ONI Wasp.

The armaments of the AV-49H appear to be based on the M199 heavy machine guns and M400 missile launcher of the standard Wasp variants.[3] It is unclear whether this implies that the gauss and ion field munitions fired are 7.62x51mm and 50mm, respectively, or merely aesthetically similar.
