Intro - Description - Electronics / Sensors - Offensive Systems - Defensive Systems - Diagrams
Subsystems: Anti-Bug - Communications - Driver's HUD - Headgear - Holo projector - Laptop - Main Computer - Sensor Pod - Test Gear

Back to Top ANTI-BUG EQUIPMENT: This system automatically vibrates the windows at different frequencies to negate laser microphones, which use the vibrations from the windows to listen to people speaking. The walls have a metal mesh, which can block any transmissions from inside the vehicle, when desired.  It can be turned "off" for outgoing calls from handheld radios and phones.  The RV is also equipped with an internal ECM system that warns of internal transmissions (yes, it goes off every time a cell phone is activated). 

Back to TopCOMMUNICATIONS: Contains a comprehensive communications suite which can cover the following bands; police, fire, military, UHF, VHF, HF, EHF, CB, HAM, and TV.  It also links the Main Computer to the ORACL satellite network.  The computer can attempt to unscramble (see note 4) encrypted communications. Has satellite uplink/downlink capabilities including Internet connections (see note 5). Power of transmitter is variable up to 3000 watts. Various antennas are located on the top of the RV and flip up when in use. Can be linked to computer for voice duplication /concealment, satellite hopping, etc... 

Back to TopDRIVER'S HEADS UP DISPLAY AND FLIR SYSTEM: The drivers side has a heads up display for driver showing speed, gas level, time, etc.. It also has a Forward looking Infrared Camera mounted in a fixed forward position. The image is projected onto the inside of the front window. This allows the driver to operate the vehicle at night without lights even if the sensor pod is in use. 

Back to TopVR HEADGEAR AND TARGETING HEADGEAR: The VR Headgear consists of a helmet that has two hi-res LCD displays that provide a 3D computer environment to the wearer. Speakers on the inside of the helmet give good 3D sound. A built in microphone is included. Also included with the VR headgear is a pair of data gloves. The Targeting Headgear looks like a pair of oversized glasses that slaves the Sensor pod and Weapons Pod and points them wherever the user is looking. They project a targeting reticule onto the lens for tracking and illuminating targets along with various weapons and sensor related data. An IR, Thermal or Kirilian overlay can be added for varying conditions through the use of the Sensor pod. Only one pair of Targeting Headgear can slave the pods at a time, but others can standby wearing other pairs of headgear so that the agents can take control of the weapons system when contact is lost by another. The Colorado Mk II RV comes with 2 pairs of each. 

Back to TopTABLETOP HOLO PROJECTOR: The dining room table is also a 3D holographic projector. It can be used to view 3D images such as terrain, faces and target info. 

Back to TopLAPTOP COMPUTER:  See Bureau Laptop

Back to TopMAIN COMPUTER: Advanced AI computer system. CPU consists of biological processors and self creating RAM.  Holographic data storage with effectively unlimited storage capacity. Controls all main systems including life support, navigation, autopilot, suspension, weapons control, security and communications.  Also has a continuously updated database containing the most recent terrain and road information, including satellite photographs (see note 2) and digital terrain.  Can be used for computer tapping (see note 3). The computer can be accessed from the driver/passenger compartment, dining room table or bedroom. Each area has a VR and Targeting Headgear jack. Has voice command ability. 

Back to TopSENSOR POD: A roof mounted sensor pod containing: Visible light spectrum camera with 20x magnification Kirilian filter for Visible light camera Thermal imaging system, 20x magnification Light Amplification TV camera, 20x magnification Laser range finder / designator, 7 mile range The pod is located towards the front of the RV. It covers a 180 degree arc to the front. To cover the rear the pod must rise up and rotate around. This pod can be slaved to a targeting sight or displayed on any screen. Can also be used to search for targets passively. Scanning can be automatic with computer monitoring / alarm. Looks like a roof mounted air conditioner. RADAR POD:A roof mounted microwave radar and laser radar. 10 mile range. Can provide illumination for Semi Active Radar Homing (SARH) missiles, for following the road, or for ground targets. The laser radar is used to detect possible "stealth" vehicles and generate a 3D computer image of the object. Scanning can be automatic with computer monitoring / alarm. 360 degree coverage. Disguised as a skylight. 

    Options: Can be used to jam radars. In jamming mode the radar has a 5 mile range. Options: Experimental Magical Energy Locator (MEL) (AVA: GM's discretion or 15%.  Delivery in 1d6 hours by gating). This radar detects magical items (mages, powerful tomes, talismans, magical creatures, four leaf clovers, dirty socks, etc..). The radar has a range of 20 miles. You must return the radar to HQ when done using it. It attaches to the top of the RV and looks like bicycle carrying pod.
Back to TopSCANNING  ELECTRON MICROSCOPE AND SPECTRUM ANALYZER: The microwave is also serves as a scanning electron microscope and spectrum analyzer.
