Description
Chilton is the brand or design name of a family of Jump Jets. There are multiple models of Chilton jump jets that are produced by several manufacturers across the Inner Sphere. Interestingly whether the Chilton name refers to an actual manufacturer, an engineer, a design firm or a publisher of technical documents has been lost to antiquity. Notwithstanding that there is no actual Chilton factory, the base Chilton design is among the oldest and most common names in jump technology.
Model 360
The Chilton 360 is a light jump pack most commonly installed in the Stinger. This model has also been employed in the Firestarter[1], Vulcan[1], and Duan Gung[2].
Model 365
To date there is only one noted user of the Chilton Model 365. The 60 ton Anvil sports this three ton jump system giving it a jump range of around 90 meters.

Model 460
To date the model 460 has only been employed on the Quickdraw. This five ton unit launches the 60 ton Quickdraw 150m in a bound.

Model 465
The Chilton 465 is the system employed on the ubiquitous Crusader. While this unit was produced in large numbers as part of Crusader production, technical drawings for this design remain unseen.

| Oliver | Brigadier Corporation | CRD-5M Crusader | [15] |
Model 600
The Chilton 600 Jump Jet kit is the largest entry in the Chilton family. First installed in the Marauder II in 3012 is also found on the Colossus. Of note is that the Colossus is itself a descendant of the Marauder II and it is unclear if Omnitech produces their own units of this design or imports them. For that matter General Motors themselves are relatively mum on whether they make the Chilton 600 themselves or if they have an OEM vendor.
