The ASC-6 Mediator was hastily rolled out to address the limitations of its unmanned predecessor the ASC-5. A complement wingman rather than a replacement, the Mediator proved itself to be a capable Auxillery for following up with expensive ASC-5 units to their mission. Where it lacks the max speed of the ASC-5, its operational range thanks to its fuel reserves reliably keep it in the fight just as long. Unlike the ASC-5, The Mediator is capable of fielding more weapons systems, expanding its uses in theatre.
