The CQRW (Close Quarters Response Vehicle) is a tactical insertion vehicle, primarily for urban military operations. It is also used by some law enforcement agencies, notably the Grand Rapids Police Department, as a part of SWAT teams for breaching and squad deployment.
Official Press Release at PX 2052
"The Agropelter Close Quarters Response Vehicle (CQRW), colloquially known as the Crow, is the best solution to urban combat insertion. With the CQRW's rear ramp and breaching spikes, it is able to quickly and securely deliver operators into any battlefield.
Powered by 4 electric motors delivering nearly 800 horsepower, the CQRW is suited for swift operations not only in modern, open cities, but developing or war torn cities as well. Over 14 inches of suspension travel allow the CQRW to reach the objective as quickly and as reliably as possible.
Currently trusted by over 300 militaries, law enforcement agencies, and task forces, the CQRW has proven to be the best choice for urban infiltration and exfiltration."
Design
Developed from the NUGPV (New Urban General Purpose Vehicle) chassis, the CQRW is powered by a quad-motor all wheel drive electric powertrain. A 310 kWH battery sits below the cabin, delivering power to all systems, including the drivetrain, cabin amenities, remote weapon station (RWS), exterior lights, and communications.
Armament
A single top mounted RWS can be equipped with a .50 caliber M2 Browning derivative machine gun, for anti materiel, anti personnel, and for combat against unarmored or poorly armored targets, such as technicals or SVBIEDs. The RWS is controlled from a station in the front passenger seat, and the vehicle is stocked with 500-900 rounds of .50 caliber ammunition. A 100 or 200 round box magazine can be attached to the turret's ammo belt from inside the vehicle
