This is a weekly posting with GURPS vehicles (and the like) to the
GURPSnet mailing list. I grant the permission for all non-commercial
redistribution of my work, but I would like to know if you put it on
a website or the like. My site is down for rebuilding, but sooner or
later the old stuff should reappear at omeyer.gmxhome.de

IISS Security Air/Raft (Open) v1.0 (GURPS Traveller TL12)
Copyright 2008 by Onno Meyer
The Security Branch of the Interstellar Scout Service is responsible
for hostage rescue operations after failed first contact attempts, and
for law enforcement with regard to smuggling and protected cultures.
The open Security Air/Raft is designed for the rapid deployment of a
commando squad. Superdense steel protects the belly and lower sides of
the air/raft while the top remains open for easy access. The avionics
and stealth systems in the vehicle complement those in the body armor
of the troopers, who can use small arms and helmet electronics while
seated.
