📋 About This Mod
RS-89 Hellhound
The RS-89 Hellhound is a modification on the SC-34 Hellhound strain, taking the augmentation to the fur coat to provide better thermal insulation and combined it with the unusual side effect from the enhance foot padding on the A-9 Hellhound strain, that was supposed to improve lower leg drop survivability, but instead allowed for the strain to move quieter than expected. This intuitive combination of the specific augmentations from the two strains has create a silence and stealth killer, with the fur helping disguising the Hellhound on thermal based vision systems and the extra foot padding reducing noise.
Therefore, it is proposed that the RS-89 Hellhound is to be deploy in commando raids behind enemy line to cause as much damage as possible on mission deemed too dangerous to waste Helldivers on.
