ALV-65 Escarabajo

The ALV-65 Escarabajo is an anti-orbital weapon system developed and operated by the Interstellar Union. Designed in the 260s by Nikolai Stepanovich Sokolov of the ODE 754 design bureau, the ALV-65 is a land-based vehicle equipped with a powerful surface-to-space directed-energy weapon.

In 302, the upgraded ALV-65K2 was described by the Imperial Central Information Network as "one of the best aerospace-defence systems currently made" despite its age, and the ALV-65 is considered to be one of the greatest threats to any attempt to invade Union planets.
