This is a weekly posting with GURPS vehicles (and the like) to the GURPSnet mailing list. I grant the permission for all non-commercial redistribution of my work, but I would like to know if you put it on a website or the like. The files at omeyer.gmxhome.de are down until I fix the automatic PDF generation, which should be one of these days - see sourceforge.net/projects/gurpsml Onno Meyer, 2015-04-06
Ling Standard Products MT8 Grav Belt v1.0 (GURPS Traveller TL10) Copyright 2015 by Onno Meyer The LSP MT8 is a typical grav belt. The actual shape is more like a flat backback, but the name grav belt is known on thousands of worlds and the marketing department would never allow a change. The MT8 can be worn with a vacc suit or over ordinary clothes. In a standard atmosphere, it allows a top speed of 130 kph and a virtually unlimited flight ceiling -- getting down from orbit is another matter if the user has no personal reentry kit. The power cell lasts for 375 minutes at top speed. Subassemblies: Body -3. Powertrain: 20-lb. vectored reactionless thruster; 600-lb. contragrav unit; 36,000-kWs rechargeable D power cell.
