==Description==
Capable of scouting, providing ECM cover and calling in artillery support from other units, the '''Kite Reconnaissance Vehicle''' was marketed as an all-in-one solution by [[Clan Sea Fox]]. The Kite was a successful replacement for the aging [[Odin (Combat Vehicle)|Odin]], whisper-quiet even when moving, easier to maintain and cheaper to both purchase and operate.<ref name="TRO:3145Mp16+"/>

The Kite was designed to track up to five priority targets with full telemetry, but the excellent sensor suite was capable of tracking more than a [[Trinary]] of independent targets and offered exceptional performance when it came to rooting out hidden units, performing noticeably faster than other units. The Neil 9000 communications system made tracking the Kite a frustrating experience, while the Kite could use a combination of its high mobility and five and a half tons of [[ferro-fibrous armor]] to protect itself from damage if the ECM/ECCM systems failed to deter or defeat attacks, calling in artillery fire all the while. The [[Armored Motive System]] built into the Kite helped keep the vehicle mobile and functioning.<ref name="TRO:3145Mp16+"/>
