Ahead of schedule the first TRV-5HD Tapir has been delivered to the Dino Army. Over 2000 of the next generation version of the Tapir are on order for the Dinos, Clones and Telvin 802 though it is expected 1000s more will be built over the years to come.
The HD is the most significant upgrade to the Tapir for some years though was funded by the Dinos and it reported the resulting IFV was not exactly what the HCS would have built for themselves. It has a new gun, fire control, engine and a new alloy used in the armour. Production of the Tapir-G is now winding down though will continue of the specialist Sand Tapir at a low rate until 2112.
