The Kabardin earns its name by being the work-horse of the NRF APCs capable of operating in most conditions, reasonably armoured with full NBC capability and an assortment of different weapons available to it.

Capable of carrying 8 soldiers with full equipment and with a crew of 2-3 it is widely regarded as a premier AFV and is in high demand by Habitats across the Technosphere. Whilst not as advanced, powerful or well-protected as Agency vehicles such as the Hunchback it remains the #1 choice for those unable to qualify for the UTQ Agency military vehicles (which, in reality, is most of the Technosphere!).

This version comes with a General-Purpose turret mounting smoke launchers and a 30mm auto-cannon.
