Standard VF-X-1L Veritech Fighter, with 2 submachine guns built onto the expansion pivots. Where the booster pack would be mounted, the bracing for the submachine guns is. When the torso 'breaks' into Battloid mode, the brace pushes the guns over onto the shoulders. Each Sub Machine Gun has 90 M.D.C. and the brace has 100 M.D.C. The Brace has 500 round contained in it and allows each gun to fire short bursts of 10 (15 M.D.), a long burst of 20 rounds (30 M.D.), or a full melee blast (45 M.D.). Reload takes 1 full melee. This Weapon has been designated the UZI-X18.
It has also been modified with several dorsal support thrusters to counter the lower gravity of the moon. This doesn't really add much to the fighting ability, except maybe better traction to the ground. Also in this package comes a small filter in the engines to prevent 'moon dust' from clogging up the engines. These engine modifications, nicknamed the Lunar Pack, or LVP-1X, has been equipped on all Veritech fighters stationed at the Lunar Base.

This Veritech has no gun-pod, and it's standard missile configuration is as follows; No weapon on the centerline hard point, 2 Long Range Reflex Multi-Warhead missiles (225 M.D.; 25 M.D.C.) on the inner wing hard points, and 3 Short range Medium warhead missiles (60 M.D.; 5 M.D.C.)

- Lift Engines: 4 Rolls Royce/Turbomeca Adour 950 providing a maximum of 95 KN of ground-effect thrust each through 3 primary vents.

1) Turret Mounted Particle Beam Cannon, mounted to the right of the turret, this cannon is the tanks most powerful weapon. It's similar to the PBC-11 particle beam weapons of the Excalibur MK VI.
Primary Purpose: Assault/defense
Mega-Damage: 5D10 per blast
Range: 7000ft
Payload: Unlimited
Rate of Fire: A maximum of two per melee

2) 12-tube rocket-propelled grenade launcher: located in the front of the main turret, next to the PB cannon. The typical payload consists primarily of smoke grenades with occasional anti-personnel rounds.
Primary Purpose: Assault/defense
Secondary Purpose: Riot Control/Civil Rescue
Mega-Damage: Varies with specific warheads.
Rate of Fire: One at a time or volleys of two

4) Optional hand-to-hand combat is very limited and awkward for the Centaur because the lack of normal arms.
Mega-Damage: Body Block - 1D4
*Stomp - 1D4
*The Stomp with the foot is effective only against small objects of 6ft (1.8m) or smaller.
Note: The Centaur cannot jump, leap, kick, or climb. It cannot pick up or carry objects.
Number of Attacks per melee: is equal to the hand-to-hand abilities of the pilot.

Vehicle Type: Inter-planetary Aero/Space Fighter
Crew: One
Production: Extremely Rare
M.D.C. By Location:

Speed: 3000mph (Mach 4.7) in forward flight, and 450mph in reverse/braking flight.
Stall speed 100mph with vertical thrusters on, and can perform a VTOL in lunar gravity or less.
Height: 15' 9"
Wingspan: 41' 10"
Weight: 16 tons
Power Plant:

Range: Effectively Unlimited, the reactor allows it to fly unrefuled for 12 years normal use, and 8 years constant use.

Other Notes: This jet is capable of flying in any weather, any atmosphere. Engine exhaust is made of a very intense flame, vaporizing anything following within 5 meters of it when flying at speeds over 500 mph. The jet can obtain an unstable hover in lunar gravity, but rocks back and forth, side to side. Agility is slightly greater than a VF-1, and all in all, the jet acts like an F/A-18 in every other aspect not already mentioned.

Created by Jace and Dr. Lang, this cannon is much more powerful and compact than it's predecessor, and it's fire can be of almost any volume, and either in burst form, or beam form. The gun is roughly cylindrical, with a handle and a clock on top. It's power matrix is completely internal, and it works just like a gunpod. The interface is via the connections in the handgrip, or by the button-like controls on the side. The cannon, if the pilot wishes, can have the handle folded up, and turned into a bazooka-shaped pod.

    M.D.C.: 250
    Maximum Range: 5 km
    Damage:    Burst form:     (x)d10 M.D.

                x = number of rounds charged
                y = number of rounds blast is sustained
    Payload:    practically unlimited, can make several hundred full blasts before recharge.
