I-series large self-propelled local mining base vehicle "I6" 198X AD. Several dozen years had already passed since humanity has first set foot on Mars, and it seemed as though the Martian surface resources were about to run dry. Many companies had decided to leave Mars and set their sights on other planets, but a few people remained with dreams of tapping the many resources rumored to dwell beneath the Martian surface. The main self-propelled vehicles developed with Japanese support in the early days of Mars' colonization were the three I, RO, HA varieties, and among these, the oldest and largest I-series were aban-... left to those who remained on Mars.

M3 37mm anti-tank cannon/M2 heavy machine gun Used to drive off hostiles and primitive creatures. Ammunition acquired illegally.

This vehicle is the "I6". The I-series went up to 19. The 6th vehicle in the mining vehicles division. It is the oldest vehicle in continued operation since the terraforming of Mars. (Others were taken out of service either by battle damage, breakdowns, or being recycled for parts.)

Quadcopter Used for a wide range of applications such as transport, surveying, and reconnaissance. Pilot-operated.
