the Weapons Transport Vehicle
The Weapons Transport Vehicle is a tool that the Gi Joe team can use to deliver heavy ordnance from one location to another - often to another vehicle for reloads. It is a durable little monster of a ride, having a m.s. of 10, and is equipped with the following vehicular capabilities:
Bomb Carriage (a): this armored carriage is what the Weapons Transport Vehicle is all about, allowing the Gi Joe team to easily haul ordnance from place to place. It has a m.s. of 13, allowing the vehicle to move explosives of up to 1 ton in weight with ease.
Communications Array (i): the Weapons Transport Vehicle is equipped with a short range radio transceiver to communicate with a main control center for directions, instructions and more. Its carbon fiber reinforced antenna gives it intensity 4 comm range (25 miles).
Flotation Tires (a): the Weapons Transport Vehicle can be used in all terrains, not just in hangars, thanks to its flotation tires. Filled with a self-sealing foam (making them effectively bullet proof), they allow this somewhat slow vehicle to drive almost anywhere.
'Lightning Speed' (a): something of a misnomer, this ability demonstrates the speed that the Weapons Transport Vehicle possesses. Able to move at approximately 45 miles per hour, this vehicle possesses this power (after a fashion) at intensity 2.
PD-9 Submachine Gun (a): this shielded 9mm cannon is the sole armament on the Weapons Transport Vehicle - aside from whatever bombs or missiles it is carrying. This weapon can be fired to inflict the driver's Agility +5 damage in a short burst, +6 if opened up 'full auto'.
