My interceptor: S.R.V V3 "Obsidian"

Built this heavy interceptor that uses: suction thrusters + hydraulic spikes.

Deployment Sequence (full deploy in just 16 seconds):

  1. Airbags lower the vehicle to the ground
  2. Suction thrusters activate and create a vacuum zone underneath (with deployable skirts)
  3. Hydraulic spikes drop 30–40 inches deep for mechanical lock

It also has upward thrusters to help with suspension and rough terrain.

Heavily inspired by the TIV 2 and Dominator 3.

Key Specs:

  • Total Weight: 15,162 lbs
  • Height: 8.5 ft (including mast)
  • Downforce: 6,000 lbs from suction thrusters -> Total effective planted force: 21,162 lbs
  • Construction: 2.5" steel tube frame + composite/Kevlar armor plating
  • Anchoring: Hydraulic spikes (30–40" deep) + suction zone with skirts

In GMod, it successfully intercepted a 317 mph wedge fully deployed. It stayed planted the whole time, though the entire vehicle shook a lot.
