Military Vehicles of the EC


Military vehicles are generally run from on-board cold fusion generators (current technology can just get them small enough) which power all on board-systems. This gives them extremely long duration and range. All military grav vehicles are also fully sealed and space-capable; this also allows them to operate underwater, generally to depths dependant on how heavily armoured the vehicle is.

Very few modern combat vehicles have windows. Instead, multiple sensor systems and computers provide an integrated picture of the vehicles surrounds to the operator.


JATC (Joint Armoured Troop Carrier) Grav Armoured Personnel Carrier

JATC Grav APC

A joint project between all the nations of the European Union. Designed to carry a crew of two (driver and commander/gunner) and up to ten fully equipped troops at speeds of up to 540 kph. It has more lift capacity than that required to lift its own weight, allowing it to (with the aid of its manipulator arms) act as a bulldozer, a cargo lifter and a battlefield recovery vehicle. It cannot reach orbit under its own power, but experiments have been carried out with booster packs to allow it to do so.
