Design Specifications:
The XR-81 is designed as mainly a Anti-Infantry Support Vehicle, but can be used as an Anti-Aircraft Unit, and an Anti-Armour unit as well. All of it's weapons have motion tracking, as well as the flamethrower having infra-red, and heat seeking for finding those infantry that are using rubbel for cover. The XR-81 is designed therefore for Urban combat, but it's autoblasters, and torpedo launcher make it a good AA unit, that could defend walkers from tow-cable attacks, as well as foolish single man attacks like the one made by Luke Skywalker at the Glorious Battle of Hoth. Again, the Torpedo Launcher makes a good Anti-Armour weapon as well, with the Flamethrower having a possible use as well here, being that it could fry electronic equipment, and seep through the cracks, and burn alive the infantry commanding the armour.
