Cyclone MT Guide, Specs & Features
What to know
The Cyclone MT is Tumbril's missile-armed combat rover. A manned 360-degree turret and four Size 2 missiles let its crew protect troops, convoys, and landing zones while staying mobile across rough terrain.
Cyclone MT specifications
The Cyclone MT's ground-combat package
The Cyclone MT brings the manned turret backed by the guided weapons to nearby ground units, protecting a site, supporting nearby vehicles, or engaging the threats it was built to face. A compartment beside the Cyclone MT's driver-side door provides 1.8 SCU of storage for equipment and supplies. Weapons give the crew a defensive option without changing the Cyclone MT's primary role.
The crew and protection behind the Cyclone MT's weapons
With the Cyclone MT, armor, weapons, and terrain mobility support direct fighting alongside nearby ground units.
Development note: The Cyclone MT is flight ready and entered the live game in Alpha 3.13.0. Because Star Citizen remains in active development, specifications, features, and imagery may change over time.
Cyclone MT's weapons and protection
Terrain choice, target information, and the manned turret backed by the missile load help the Cyclone MT protect the people or vehicles operating around it.
A dedicated gunner controls the rotating Size 1 weapon while the driver keeps the rover moving between firing positions.
Two missile racks carry four guided missiles for aircraft, vehicles, or other targets beyond the turret gun's best range.
The driver, gunner, and support position divide movement, weapons, and vehicle awareness during a ground fight.
A compartment beside the driver-side door carries ammunition, equipment, and supplies for the crew.
The driver manages terrain and positioning while the gunner tracks threats and friendly units.
Terrain and hull position determine which threats the guns and missiles can reach without exposing the whole Cyclone MT.
The Cyclone MT's combat loadout
A manned 360-degree turret carries one Size 1 gun, while two missile racks each hold two Size 2 missiles for four guided shots in total.
A manned turret backed by four Size 2 missiles
Protect the hull without blocking the turret or missile racks.
Use the turret gun at close range and save the four missiles for harder or more distant targets.
Use the Cyclone chassis to change cover, resupply, or return to its carrier.
Support ground units with guns and missiles
The Cyclone MT combines a manned 360-degree turret with the guided weapons. The driver uses the rover's speed and terrain mobility to place the gunner where both weapon systems can protect nearby troops and vehicles.
-
Choose cover with a clear field of fire
Protect the hull while leaving the turret and missile racks free to engage.
-
Use the turret gun against close threats
The gunner can track infantry, light vehicles, and low aircraft without waiting for the driver to turn the whole rover.
-
Use the missile load against harder targets
Two missile racks add guided fire when the turret gun is not enough or the target is farther away.
-
Move before the position is exposed
The driver uses the Cyclone chassis to change cover, resupply, or return to its carrier.
Turret fire and guided missiles on the move
The Cyclone MT combines a fast all-terrain chassis with a dedicated gunner's turret and four Size 2 missiles.
The 360-degree turret lets the gunner track threats without forcing the driver to turn the whole rover.
The missile racks add reach and power when the turret gun is not enough.
Speed and terrain handling help the crew move with nearby units and leave exposed ground quickly.
The 1.8-SCU external compartment carries ammunition, equipment, and supplies without crowding the seats.
Three crew members share the combat workload
The driver handles terrain and cover while the gunner watches the 360-degree turret and missile racks. A third crew position supports awareness and vehicle operation.
A compact crew for mobile fire support
The Cyclone MT separates driving from weapon control, letting the rover move with nearby units while its gunner watches for threats.
The driver chooses cover, follows nearby vehicles, and moves before hostile fire settles on the rover.
The gunner chooses between close-range turret fire and four guided missiles.
The third position helps the crew follow target calls, ammunition, damage, and the route back to transport.
