The Raven series are technical versions of the Courser SUV, fitted for military use. They are relatively durable and can survive substantial amounts of enemy fire. It can carry up to five people, making it a very useful vehicle to take into enemy bases to take advantage of the support. Ravens can be found at the UP HQ, any UP outpost, and make up half of the cars seen in Maracaibo until the Allies come to assist.
The standard Raven is equipped with a Browning M2HB .50 heavy machine gun with 300 rounds. It has a small arc of fire, similar to that of the Sungri Scout in Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction, putting it at a disadvantage when fighting opposing vehicles. This is also the most common one encountered; easily acquired anywhere there is a UP presence.
Real Life
The Raven is based on the Chevrolet Avalanche and/or the Cadillac Escalade EXT (hYbrid).
