Designer Notes
While the standard Wallaby could be used in almost any situation, there were several missions where its noisy engine and radar signature prevented its use. More speicifically, black operations and intelligence gathering involving only a few operatives were made difficult by the lack of a proper one-man stealth vehicle that could be abandoned after a mission. The Wallaby's ancestor -- the Mongoose -- had a covert ops variant, but its extremely limited deployment range and fuel reserve made it unattractive and very risky to use. When northern high command decided to retire the Mongoose, it commissioned several design groups to come upw tih a variant of the Wallaby that would surpass its predecessor in stealth and range. The Sneak Wallaby was born. While hardly tougher than a normal Wallaby, the "bubble" cockpt was a great bonus which had a positive effect on the morale of the infantry who used it. Durin gthe last twenty cycles -- including the War of the Alliance -- the Sneak Wllaby has been the vehicle of choice for black operations and hit-and-run night strikes.
