The Pegasus was designed from the Lupus chassis to be a more maneuverable unit in Earf land environments when it became apparent that the A-7D Lupus was hindered by its reliance on its ground speed and rocket assisted jumping. The legs, torso, shoulder armor, and head were redesigned to be more aerodynamic and for the addition of six ducted fan turbines to lift and propel the machine nimbly about the battlefield. The end result was a rather capable machine, but its range was fairly short and its control systems were rather complicated. Despite its success, the Pegasus would eventually be surpassed by the Taurus class as the Demiurge front would shift against the Cosmic Heavens.
