Gridrunner: Difference between revisions

 

*The craft can carry up to four 'compliance chambers' - phone booth-sized chambers that have the same function as the Mark 40 compliance bands (in that they fully dampen the powers of anyone placed inside). If necessary, the prisoner can be kept in a sleep-state by the use of specialized sonic emitters, or restrained by the use of 'confinement mist' canisters inside. These chamners can be used to transport rogue metahumans to secure holding facilities.

 

*The ''Gridrunner-A'' has two additional coats of Secondary Adamantium coating over the hull to further protect the craft from the heat of re-entry caused by friction, and a force-screen emitter designed as the craft's primary heat during re-entry. (In addition, the on-board systems are all hardened against [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_pulse EMP] so that if necessary, [[Jane Lane]] could use her own magnetic force-fields to protect the ship - although, in such a circumstance, she has the ability to return the craft to Earth under her own power. Likewise, [[Mack Mackenzie]]'s solar powers could easily absorb or dissipate the heat build-up during re-entry.)

 

*Unlike any other models, the ''Gridrunner-A'' is armed with two forward-mounted internal dual maser emitters (which can be used even at trans-sonic speeds). The masers have an effective radius of 6000 meters. The masers are designed so that they can be recessed into the craft, and are not readily visible as weapons.

 

The Legion has one Mark II and two Mark V''Gridrunner-A'' aircraft at its disposal for official uses.
