	The GVSG Ankh sentry gun platform is the Vasudan equivalent of the GTSG Watchdog. Both are Great War relics that perform poorly by modern standards. The Ankh serves to guard back-line storage depots and installations. With no armor or shielding, the Ankh is easily destroyed. Its two small turrets can deter unarmed raiders or badly damaged fighters, but it poses little threat to most combat craft.

The '''GVSG ''Ankh''''' is a [[Vasudans\|Vasudan]] sentry gun, designed prior to the [[Great War]]. ''Ankh'' sentry guns were commonly placed near supply depots, as seen in the mission [[Where Eagles Dare]]. Although underpowered by modern standards, it remains in service in a limited capacity.
