Storage & Transport

The Drummond Spitfire 100d can be stored in a Storage Depot, Seaport or Storage Ship.

It can be packaged into a medium Shippable and transported by any Shipping Vehicle (Crane, Flatbed Truck, Barge, Freighter, Storage Ship, Landing Ships, Flatbed Car, or Large Crane).

Tactics

Due to the high mobility of the vehicle, it is ideal for hit and run attacks. This is also encouraged by the relatively low health and high repair cost of the vehicle, meaning that if it stays in one spot for too long it may get overwhelmed by even small arms fire.

It is one of the best tools for clearing up loose partisans, as well as pushing with groups of infantry to provide fire support and mobile intel coverage.

When driving an LUV, it's often faster to turn around by driving forward. Driving forward and turning left or right turns jeeps faster than backing up while turning. This should be practiced before entering combat, as jeep maneuvering can be difficult especially while fighting on a road, due to how easy it is to spin out. It's advised to practice driving these jeeps and getting used to the handbrake for proper usage.
