The Phoenix Hovercar is a simple military flying car for commanders that want to fight in style. It sports two standard small weapon hardpoints, by default a laser gun and a  [[Janitor Missile Array (Apocalypse)|Janitor Missile Array]], and a normal upgrade module slot you probably want a fire control module in. It's a cheap combat vehicle that is small and fast enough to dodge most incoming hostile attacks, though it is more vulnerable than a hoverbike. It's best used in groups or as support for hoverbike fleets.

The Hovercar gets renewed viability in the late game thanks to [[Small Disruption Shield (Apocalypse)|Disruption Shields]]. Its 2x2 cargo bay can fit a shield, giving an extra 200HP buffer that more than triples its endurance. This lets it survive against alien missiles and weapons that would otherwise destroy swarm craft. However, it's small weapon slots mean it will never be able to carry much firepower. As a result, sending it out against high power UFOs is unlikely to accomplish much.

The chassis can mount a [[Small_Disruption_Shield_(Apocalypse)|small shield]] which almost triples its constitution which allows it to retain its usefulness as a combat vehicle until hybrid craft are invented.

The Phoenix is manufactured by Marsec mainly for military purposes. This sleek but rugged vehicle is used for reconnaissance in dangerous environments such as the Mars colony. A variety of weapon and engine configurations can be used and a well equipped Phoenix is more than a match for a police Hovercar.  From: Apocalypse Ufopaedia

A medium duty combat vehicle for general attack or for agent transport when using a small squad.
The armament can be upgraded for a mix of guns or missiles in support of Hoverbike swarms but due to its slower speed, acceleration - even with the best engine, the hovercar is vunerable to missiles.
The chassis can mount a small shield which almost triples its constitution which allows it to retain its usefulness as a combat vehicle until hybrid craft are invented.
