MASAMUNE SHIROW VEHICLES
TONDA QV 450 RF
An average recumbent bike. Most of the motorcycles in the
world of Appleseed have free floating forks, and makes use of
drive by wire technology. This translates into the slower you go
the tighter you turn. (Appleseed)

THE HUN
Your average nomad bike. From the looks of it I would say it
handles pretty well off road as well as on pavement. It also
seems pretty sturdy and reliable. (Ghost In The Shell)

Special equipment:
Off-road capable, radio,
BORG BIKE
This is a massive motorcycle built especially for the larger
cyborgs. This bike was made to handle off-road terrain as well as
the streets. This bike makes use of drive by wire technology, and
its shocks are specially calibrated for the weight of a cyborg.
It also has an optional sidecar. (Appleseed)

Off-road capability, radio, optional side car.
GUNSLINGER TANK
A tank more suited to the urban jungle than to the badlands.
It carries a variety of weapons to get the job done, but under
adverse conditions its electronics and cooling systems have been
known to malfunction. Depending on the terrain the Gunslinger can
switch from tread to tire, to make maximum control of its
environment. (Appleseed)

Special equipment:
Reactive armor, amphibious modification, fire
extinguisher, environment control, military radio w/scrambler,
anti-personnel grenades, visual and laser rangefinder, auto pilot
and navigational system, image enhancement, thermograph, 4 IR
smoke projectors, radar, motion detactors, spoghtlights and
enhanced audio detectors.
Weapons systems:
30mm gatling in turret mount, 6 shot revolver style 75mm
cannon, in turret mount.
MOBILE PLATFORMS
This is a six legged walker developed for city defense. The
Mobile Platforms are walking arsenals, as they carry enough
firepower to level a city. They are supposedly flight capable,
but this requires expert training and has yet to see any real use
in combat. (its ground speed is faster) While it needs a crew of
5 for optimum performance, it really needs no crew at all, it can
be remote controlled from a central location. (Appleseed)

irnaging and recording capabilities, radar, motion detectors,
visual-acoustic-heat-and laser target acquisition. fire
extinguisher, auto pilot, ECM, ECCM, life support, smoke
dispensers.
Weapon systems:
2 30mm gattling guns, 6 40mm auto GLs, 3cm railgun, 12
dual barreled .50calibre chain guns,
MORNING STAR
This aircraft, also called the Anti-Predator Device, was
developed to eliminate not only those enemies crawling around on
the ground below, but to take out anti-tank helicopters, flying
tanks, assault mines and other low-altitude airborne weapon
systems. The "MORNING STAR" is a heavily armored
vehicle with an armor laminate witch utilizes kevlar, boron
carbide, ballistic nylon, and carbon fiber to provide outstanding
protection levels. The "Morning Star " is a heavy
beast, but the ceramic jet engine at her heart puts out more than
enough power to handle it all. It is sometimes rigged with a 900
liter external fuel tank for long-range operations. Standard crew
of 2, equipped with semi-automated one man control system to
allow her to get home safely with one crew member out of action.

Special equipment:
(1) the armored canopy is completely enclosed, with mini
cameras scattered over the hull projecting a panoramic view of
the outside world in wrap-around monitors in the cockpit. In
addition to protecting the pilot from shrapnel and light arms
fire, this shield protects him from ultraviolet exposure and
eliminates the distraction of sun glare in a dog fight situation.
Each camera is screened by a blower that keeps off rain and
moisture. (2) jet intake. the lower fins are
designed to prevent gun smoke from entering the intake. The
fuselage is lined with heat resistant materials along the arc of
the gun barrel. This area is tough to keep clean. (4)
variable geometry vents, as in the harrier. Six along her
underbelly. sometimes called "high mobility venires". (5)
mast mounted sight. Allows map-of-the-earth stalking. Far more
useful than the designers expected. (6) jammer. (11)
chaff and flame dispenser. (12) exhaust nozzle,
designed to reduce heat signature. (14) external
temperature sensor. (15) VLF antenna. (16)
MLF antenna. (18) stabilizer. (19)
tail mounted ECM antenna. (20) positive
circulation flaps made of heat resistant plastics. (21)
positive circulation flaps. (22) nose mounted
semi-active laser designators. Ejection seats, environment
control, fire extinguisher, military radio, ECM, ECCM, radar,
radar detector, IR baffling, full audio and visual imaging.
Weapon systems:
(3) 30mm gattling, (7) 2 anti
ship missiles "Penguin" (8) 8
"Hellfire"anti-tank missiles. (9) 2
"Harpoon" anti ship missiles. (10) 2
19-tube rocket launchers. (13) remote controlled
30mm chain gun. (17) 2 20mm chainguns.
