Overview:

         Though command van refers specifically to the wheeled ATV that most 'Mech units have and use as a mobile control center, the catagory includes any large, enclosed ATV used for civilian or military purposes. A standard 'mech unit command van is usually equipped with an on-board computer,tracking and medical equipment, and both surface-to-surface and surface-to-space communications linkups.
         Though command cans are kept away from battlefield situations as much as possible, they are moderately armored and usually equipped with both an LRM-5 and an MG. Most command vans were originally powered by fusion plants and far more advanced computers, but these advanced systems were removed to power BattleMechs or other more "true" combat units in most cases.
