Bohwemoth

Behold now the behemoth that I have made with you; he eats grass like cattle.
Behold now his strength is in his loins and his power is in the navel of his belly.
His tail hardens like a cedar; the sinews of his testicles are knit together.
His limbs are as strong as copper, his bones as a load of iron.
His is the first of God's ways; [only] his Maker can draw His sword [against him].
For the mountains bear food for him, and all the beasts of the field play there.
Does he lie under the shadows, in the covert of the reeds and the swamp?
Do the shadows cover him as his shadow? Do the willows of the brook surround him?
Behold, he plunders the river, and [he] does not harden; he trusts that he will draw the Jordan into his mouth.
With His eyes He will take him; with snares He will puncture his nostrils.


Despite Kain's constant complaints otherwise, the Behemoth is a perfectly serviceable and reliable Gear transport. The vehicles large profile does tend to attract attention, but in the post-war period, there are more than a few around, and it just makes too much logistical sense to exchange for a less overtly military vehicle. That said, painting a shark's mouth on the cab doesn't make it blend in any better....

The Behemoth is now a little overloaded; one of the vehicle bas is literally stuffed with trooper gears in various states of (dis)repair. In fact, assistance from the Spitting Cobra was necessary in order to close the door.

The milspec standard pintle mount will fit either an AGL or an LMG, and a shoulder-fired SAM rests in the cab against the possible necessity of grounding an aircraft.
