the Crossfire

The Crossfire is a small, fast vehicle the GI Joe team can use to rush into a Cobra-controlled area and wreak havoc. Heavily armed and armored, it is ideal for the hit and run operations that Rumbler is so good at. The Crossfire has these capabilities:

Bounce-Off Deflection Screen: the Crossfire has an open cockpit, but is equipped with a ballistic wind shield that can 'bounce' rounds and projectiles off of it. Attacks targeting the driver suffer a -1 RS to hit, thanks to this hunk of shaped armor.

Break-Thru Xenon Lamps: mounted on the front bumper of the Crossfire, these twin lamps can easily illuminate the sector in front of the vehicle while its driving at night, doing so with rank value 20 ability. They also makes a handy surprise blinding attack in a pinch.

Communications Gear: the Crossfire is equipped with a gigahertz frequency, frequency wobbler clandestine operations radio system. This makes for rank value 10 communications power, having a 25 mile range, that has Remarkable (30) ranked signal encryption.

Live Wire Missiles: these two rocket-propelled explosives are surface-to-air missiles, mounted on the rear foils of the Crossfire. These missiles can inflict +1 RS damage if both are fired at a target, and possess the following vehicular characteristics:

Puncture-proof Tires: all four of the Crossfire's tires are virtually puncture-proof, making them immune to Slashing and Piercing damage at rank value 20. They still perform against other forms of damage (such as Energy) in the normal fashion.

Pumper Cannons: these twinned 20mm cannons are mounted on the back of the Crossfire, and can swivel up at any angle up to 90 degrees. They can be fired to inflict rank value 20 Piercing damage in a short burst, raised by +1 RS in a fully automatic spread.

Self-Sealing Fuel Cans: these poly-cell fuel containers are built to seal up immediately in the event that they are punctured, say by gunfire (hopefully not with explosive bullets). This makes them resistant to gunfire at rank value 10.

Spinner Cannons: these side-mounted, 9mm rotary barrel cannons can be fired at any target at up to 90 degrees in front of the Crossfire. These guns inflict rank value 10 Piercing damage in a short burst, raised by +1 RS in a fully automatic burst of lead.
