DESIGN NOTES
Same production lineage as EQUIP_GROUND_ONYX — originally sold to the Artalan frontier militia (Kresowa Milicja Artalanu), built first by Fahrzeugfabrik Zalewski, then by Waffenfabrik Zalewski from 2450. Absorbed into the Artalan Armed Forces along with the militia after the Republic’s founding. Keeps its manufacturer name in AAF service — no separate designation. A laser air-defence variant on this chassis, EQUIP_GROUND_SZERSZEN (“Szerszeń”), exists in the catalog but has not been adopted by the AAF. From 2455, an improved-armor successor, EQUIP_GROUND_SPARTAN2 (“Spartan-2”), entered production alongside this one — both are simply called “Spartan” in AAF service.
