Trivia

  • The UV-5c “Odyssey” and vehicles using the UV-05a “Argonaut” chassis bear a strong resemblance to the American designed "Willys Jeep".
  • During the devbranch for 1.50 Inferno, the UV-05a “Argonaut” was planned to be a variant, with the UV-5c “Odyssey” being the base chassis. This was later changed, with the Argonaut becoming the base chassis, and the Odyssey became a variant.
