PATHFINDER ‘TETRA’ SCOUT SPEEDER

The small two-man speeder, codenamed ‘Tetra’, is used by Pathfinder squads for long-
range reconnaissance missions. It is not a combat vehicle, being lightweight and fast, it is
only armed with twin-linked pulse rifles for self-defence. The Tetra’s main weapon is its
Marker light, which it uses to designate targets for following vehicles and their seeker
missiles.

As a reconnaissance vehicle the Tetra relies upon speed and stealth, to assist in this it
mounts a disruption pod which distorts the vehicles image in both the visual and
magnetic spectra, making it hard to spot and target at long range.

Pathfinder squads often operate far in advance of their Hunter cadre, using Tetra’s to get
into position before dismounting, hiding their vehicles and operating stealthily on foot.
Once a recon mission is complete they return to their speeders and race back to their own
forces.

As befits their role each Tetra is also equipped with powerful surveillance and
communication equipment.
