Game Notes: The jetpack can operate up to 20 minutes (240 rounds) before refueling. May carry an extra 100 kilograms of cargo, besides the operator, but movement is halved. The top of the jet pack had a turbo-projected magnetic grappling hook with 100-meter lanyard (5-25/50/100) and winch inside the launcher. The ascension system has a maximum vertical lift capacity of roughly 100 kg and pulled the user at 18 meters per round. The grappling hook unit was replaceable with an anti-vehicle homing missile (700 credits).
Background: The jetpack included a targeting computer, flight gyros, and magentic grappling hook and lanyard that could be replaced with single-shot missile. The Z-6’s fuel tank held enough fuel for one minute of continuous operation . Each blast moved the wearer up to 100 meters horizontally or 70 meters vertically. A user of standard height and weight could reach a top speed of 145 kilometers per hour with a maximum range of two kilometers. Directional thrusters featured gyro-stabilizers to apply counterthrust for maneuvering and landing.
