GI Joe: 1998 Personnel and Equipment
Personnel:
Vehicle Operators:
Ace: a gambler through and through, Brad likes nothing more than a good poker game - hence his code name. It's fitting in two aspects, as Brad is also the Joe team's crack fighter pilot, who's downed more Cobra jets than you can shake a stick at! Availability:
Heavy Duty: possessing keen hand-eye coordination, the ability to multitask, veritable ambidexterity, and a perfectionist's attention to detail, Heavy Duty is comfortable whether he's composing music or firing on Cobras - and is equally good at both! Availability:
Thunderwing: tired of hurting others and destroying things without purpose, Spencer enlisted in the Army! Being all he can be, he has channeled his destructive urges into a career as a tank jockey, and is now the GI Joe team's MOBAT driver! Availability:
Navy Assault Team:
Shipwreck: born and raised around the San Diego Naval Grounds, young Hector X Delgado was practically fated to become a sailor - and he joined the Navy to do just that. He was good enough at his job to eventually become a Joe - and even a Navy SEAL! Availability:
Torpedo: a strict vegetarian and obsessive perfectionist, Edward had mastered three martial arts forms before his nineteenth birthday. Parlaying his personality quirks into a successful military career, he became GI Joe's first Navy SEAL! Availability:
Wet-Suit: loud and arrogant, Brian forced his way through both Navy basic and his SEAL training. He then performed his saboteur duties with a gleeful passion, which got him a job on with GI Joe - his destructive joy made him very good at his job! Availability:
Equipment:
the Conquest X-30: an advanced, forward-swept wing aircraft, the Conquest X-30 is an aeronautical marvels that shouldn't technically fly - but handily manages to do so thanks to a variety of highly advanced, computer-assisted control mechanisms! Availability:
the Multi-Ordnance Battle Tank (MOBAT): essentially a highly advanced variation on one of the Army's classic treaded fighting vehicles, the MOBAT is what the GI Joe team turns to when all their other hardware isn't enough to take down an opponent. Availability:
