Origin[]
Peterson Space Force Base, previously Peterson Air Force Base, Peterson Field, and Army Air Base, Colorado Springs, is a United States Space Force base that shares an airfield with the adjacent Colorado Springs Municipal Airport and is home to the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), the Space Force's 21st Space Wing, elements of the Space Force's Space Systems Command, and United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) headquarters. Developed as a World War II air support base for Camp Carson, the facility conducted Army Air Forces training and supported Cold War air defense centers at the nearby Ent Air Force Base, Chidlaw Building, and Cheyenne Mountain Complex. The base was the location of the Air Force Space Command headquarters from 1987 to 20 December 2019 and has had NORAD/NORTHCOM command center operations since the 2006 Cheyenne Mountain Realignment placed the nearby Cheyenne Mountain Complex on standby. On 26 July 2021, the installation was renamed Peterson Space Force Base to reflect its prominent role in the new space service
Was used to transport cadets for training from the Air Training Command's 3253d Pilot Training Squadron during the late ‘60s. Once onboarded, they would be inspected once on base for identity and proper procedure in expectation of Soviet spies attempting to infiltrate their nuclear defense protocols. As such, the continual inspections within layers of blasts doors and mountainside caused the ferrying vehicle to want to continue the troops desires of reaching their destination to ensure national safety.
Effects[]
A military vehicle that keeps on driving regardless to make sure the occupants reach the destination, barring even a nuclear disaster. Will not suffer from any blows and continue even when displaced off track. The only other ways to stop it are by jurisdiction; issuing a decree by a governing leader, or even simply placing a sign that says “RESTRICTED ACCESS – NO UNAUTHORIZED PERSONNEL” is enough to make the treads immediately cease.
