Recognition notes
The Command Van (Q-Vehicle) is a 15-ton wheeled combat vehicle built as a scout. Where the base Command Van runs on a fusion plant, this variant swaps in an ICE engine, and cruising speed drops from 76 to 65 km/h with a top speed of 97 against the base's 119. The machine gun in the front carries over from the base model, but a turret now holds an LRM 5, a weapon the base Command Van never carried. Both machines share the enhanced communications gear and the same maintenance-intensive design, and both ride behind standard armor.
