Power System:3,200cc Supercharged, High-out Protoculture fired Rotary Engine. All Silverbacks also have a backup power system comprised of an electric motor constantly charged by regenerative braking systems in the wheel hub. The engine’s battery can store enough power for two hours of general riding. Use of the backup power system renders the Silverback unable to transform to Battloid mode and reduces and reduces speed by 25%.

Weapons and Sensor System:

1.) Superior Sensor Array Mounted to Rear Modular Turret:
  The rear turret of the VM-9E is always the Superior sensor array. This sensor array has all the same sensory features (radar, radio, etc.)as the Beta fighter’s sensor system, very impressive for a ground vehicle. Of course, radar is limited to tracking and identifying airborne targets, not those on the ground.


2.)H-260 Valiant Laser Assault Rifle
Weight: 12 pounds (5.4 kg)
Range: 2,000 feet (610 m)
Mega-Damage: 2D6 MD single shot and 4D6 for a three round short burst.
Rate of Fire: Each blast uses one of the pilot’s actions
Payload:  415 Rounds, or 138 Burst
MDC of the Weapon Itself: 35 MDC


3.) Modular Weapon Systems for Wheel Hardpoints (4):
Each wheel is cover has a modular hardpoint similar to the cyclone on which a modular weapon system can be mounted and fired. The H-260 Valiant is always mounted on the right side of the front wheel and the GR-97 Mini-missiles Delivery System on the left side. Any of the following weapon systems can be mounted on the two remaining hardpoints.

HRG-70 Rapid Fire Rail Gun
EP-40 Ion Pulse Weapon
GR-97 Mini-Missile Delivery System
EP-37 60mm Pulse Beam Rifle
RL-6 60mm Light Repeating Rocket Cannon
