Overview
The Skink completed the little family in 3050 and completed the fire-support ecosystem with it: the same fuel-cell hull carrying the TriStar "Eye of Ra" Target Acquisition Gear — the pantheon's extension into electronics, and nobody at the company pretends the name wasn't the point. The falcon spots, the sun god delivers, and the Skink paints.
Capabilities
A TAG designator on a 216-kph skimmer turns every guided munition in the March inventory into a personal grudge: the Skink darts, marks, and is gone before the arriving ordnance explains why it came. Doctrine teams it with its twin — the Skink designates, the Momba escorts, the Horus and Ra batteries deliver — a complete precision fire chain whose forward element costs less than a heavy tank's ammunition load. Skink crews are drawn from the observer community's most insufferable graduates, a selection criterion the community insists is a coincidence.
