-As with its predecessor, the hull on the Jinsoku Ro consists of interlocking pieces of [[material:adnr|ADNR]] encased and reinforced with [[material:durandium]] to save weight yet provide strength. This configuration provides ample structural integrity, as the more malleable material provides some degree of give, preventing shattering, while the harder material makes up for the softer material's lack of hardness and in turn assists in preventing deformation.+As with its predecessor, the hull on the Jinsoku Ro consists of interlocking pieces of [[materials:adnr|ADNR]] encased and reinforced with [[materials:durandium]] to save weight yet provide strength.

-Meanwhile, the armor plating itself itself consists of  [[material:yama_dura]] plates laminated with 2mm of [[material:durandium]] for the outer coating. These armor plates are mounted to the hull using a modular, easy on and off system, allowing for expedient repairs to damage done. As with the hull plates, the armor plates interlock with one another for additional rigidity and strength. The interlocking plates have a seamless appearance at the joints due to the use of self sealing polymer for cosmetic purposes. In addition, a good portion of the side armor is externally mounted and spaced, to prematurely disperse or detonate explosives and energy attacks - projectiles are abraded and made to tumble by this very same layout, reducing their effective penetration.+Meanwhile, the armor plating itself itself consists of  [[materials:yama_dura]] plates laminated with 2mm of [[materials:durandium]] for the outer coating.

 Improvements in interior layout and the omission of a conventional suspension system for a hover system has made space savings, freeing up more room for cargo or passengers. For utility uses, a powered winch with durandium tow cable and hook are attached to the rear of the armored hull for various uses.  As an added bonus, the spaced armor on the sides have racks integrated in between the armored hull and outer armor plates, allowing for the carrying of additional goods and supplies. Improvements in interior layout and the omission of a conventional suspension system for a hover system has made space savings, freeing up more room for cargo or passengers.

 Overall, the vehicle is intended to serve as an armored personnel and supply carrier, bringing personnel or power armors from one location to another with speed and some measure of protection. Besides moving various personnel, the vehicles are also well capable of hauling ammunition, food and supplies of various uses inside its armored hull. It is not meant for front line use, but instead is best used in secondary roles where enemy activity still sporadically occurs on occasion, due to either small groups slipping through the front lines, or those that come out of hiding to attack. Ideally, they are used to resupply frontline troops in no-fly or contested airspace which flight capable transports cannot safely operate in. Further adding to its utility is the added weight load the vehicle can take - combined with its winch system, it may tow immobilized vehicles. Additional equipment allows for the vehicle to also serve in expanded roles, such as combat engineering, mine sweeping or mobile command center. Overall, the vehicle is intended to serve as an armored personnel and supply carrier, bringing personnel or power armors from one location to another with speed and some measure of protection.
