Description
The Tunnel Rat mining exoskeleton was part of GM's ambition to reenter the mining industry. This was made possible with the recovery of the Helm Memory Core. GM had originally produced the mining suits during the late Star League Era, however, the Succession Wars caused the company to lose the technological knowledge to produce such suits. The company's ambitions to expand its offerings once again in the mining market became reality when power armor technology was recovered. Utilized for the mining industry, the Tunnel Rat was created as a suit able to withstand the harsh elements of underground mining. The suit was given modular plug-ins to allow tools to be attached for various jobs. The suit is notable for its communication and sturdy life support features.[1]
The suit is primarily produced at GM's Kathil facilities, with a variant of the suit being produced at it Talcott factory.[1]
Weapons and Equipment
The suit is equipped with two plug-in module slots in both arms. It also has an industrial drill permanently mounted in its right arm.[1]
Variants
- Tunnel Rat II
- The suit is notable for its moderate upgrade in its armor & electronics.[1]
- Tunnel Rat III
- Produced on Talcott, this is a heavier version of the first two models. The suit has improved armor and extended life support.[1]
Design Note
The Tunnel Rat's I & II models are identical stats wise at this time. As of this writing, like most Vehicle Annex articles, there are no record sheets for these exosuits.[1]
