Chapter 6 is more propaganda, but chapter 7 has some meat. Part is 
the explanation of feedback control, but there were numbers as well.

* Considerably stronger than a gorilla.
* Approx. 2,000 lbs.
* Jump jets are triggered by really hard jumping. Three jets, 
  specifically. 
* Radar to fire again for a soft landing. 
* Frequency-hopping radio.
* External microphones.
* HUD and "several types" of radar display.
* Infrared.
* Three types: marauder, command, scout. Command suits have 
  three times the commo, more go and jump juice and are the only 
  ones with INS.

The wording mostly convinced me that go juice and jump juice are
separate, but there is still an off chance he was talking about "go 
and jump" juice.
