- 19:17, 28 November 2022 Multipedal MU (hist | edit) [1,460 bytes] Zadammac (talk | contribs) (Created page with "{{Stub}} Multipedal Mobility Units are a part of the Lorica Standards as pertain to design profiles for Mobility Units for Lorica-compatible vehicles. While not nearly as common in military service as Bipedal MUs, multipedal MUs remain popular in certain specialist model designs (such as the Thoth, a well-known line of hexapods) as well as in some civilian applications. Multipedal MU designs share a close relationship with the more common Bipedal MUs, but a...")
- 19:11, 28 November 2022 Bipedal MU (hist | edit) [1,175 bytes] Zadammac (talk | contribs) (Created page with "The '''Bipedal MU''' is a category of Lorica Mobility Unit provided for under the Lorica Standards, and is the most common format of mobility unit out of those defined in the standard, at least of all models in active military use. The standard specifies that a Bipedal Mobility Unit consists of: * Precisely two articulated legs terminating in "feet" which are used as contact surfaces for the ground, * which need not be humanoid, and; * which are joined together by m...")

Usually this takes the form of an ejector seat which deploys a curtain of explosively-deployed and spalling-resistant airbags, impact-rated to survive the ejector seat's own collision. They are...")

- 18:59, 28 November 2022 Nassaar bin Abdur Raheem (hist | edit) [460 bytes] Zadammac (talk | contribs) (Created page with "{{stub}} '''Nassar bin Abdur Raheem''' was a Malaysian member of the Combat Experiments Team and the pilot of Lorica Prima X-03 "Hive". He's broadly considered as the "grandfather of the Battery Type", and his feedback on Hive's design is credited for making the class managable for a single pilot operating a Lorica. He served with distinction during the Third World War and retired from both civilian and military piloting after the war.")
- 18:57, 28 November 2022 Battery Type (hist | edit) [1,959 bytes] Zadammac (talk | contribs) (Created page with "{{Stub}} The '''Battery Type''' is one of several unofficial types or classes into which Lorica models are occasionally sorted, according to their capabilities and battlefield role, similar to the related term Assault Type. The type was postulated by the pilot of Lorica Prima '''X-03 Hive''', Nassaar bin Abdur Raheem, and the overall premise picked up and specialized on by a number of companies specializing in the design and manufacture of such vehicles....")

- 18:39, 28 November 2022 Type 26 (hist | edit) [2,069 bytes] Zadammac (talk | contribs) (Created page with "The Java Heavy Metals Type 26 was a mass-produced Lorica model used extensively by OEPU "continental" units and client militaries in the South Asian Free States extensively in the early portions of the Third World War. Affectionately nicknamed the "Gunbird" by crews, its distinctive design remained a general rule of thumb for JHM-designed vehicles, in spite of JHM not following the usual convention of maintaining a product line from model to model. T...")

When combined with the appropriate piloting technique and vehicle coroutines, such a shield can be used in like fashion to its infantry namesake, as additio...")

While broadly considered to be entirely illegal, especially after the Colonization of the Inner System throughout the end of the 21st Century, it's become all but impossible to fully stamp out the practice.")

It is most famous for its disputed role in the Sea of Tranquility Affair, during which it is alleged that CASA astronauts operating from the facility engaged in sabotage or outright hostilities against their counterpart Eurasian Soviet lunar base, Station Spokoystviye. The base was destroyed on October 2, 2037, in a nuclear str...")

Described by colleagues as an "engineer second in brilliance only to his own capability as an administrator", he oversaw Project Lorica and the development of the Lorica Prima in the years leading up to the Third World War. Unfortunately, though he lived to see the outbreak of the wa...")

By the time of the Humanoid Robotics Renaissance, they had become a producer of hazardous environment robotics, and as a result were one of the companies involved in the production of the Project Lorica testbed designs, Lorica Prima, for which they contributed the main mobility unit designs. As a Lorica manufacturer, they specialize in low-cost, lo...")
