| Designer Notes |
| First developed as a field modification of the Jager Command, the Jager Observer is a dedicated artillery spotting Gear equipped with enhanced communications and a target designator. The Observer accompanies standard forces and paints targets for guided munitions or relays coordinates for tube or rocket artillery. Designed as a simple and inexpensive altenrative to scout/observer models like the Iguana, the Observer features relatively few modifications from the basic Jager chassis, with only a new communications array (Obelisk Electronics VOX-72, borrowed from the Command variant) and an added top-mounted antenna. A mast-mounted target designator design, as seen on the Silverscale, was chosen rather than the Iguana's arm-mounted model, in order to minimize structural changes. The Observer's weapons load remains largely unchanged, although the standard Vogel-6 rocket pod has been removed to give the target designator an unobstructed line of sight and because it does not fit the operational profile of a forward observer. |
