Designer Notes
The "N" configuration is externally not very different from the regular Fire Jaguar, except that a lot of small protuberances have been either removed or capped witha low-reflectivity rubberized compound. A special muffler is attached to the exhaust to disperse and cool down the combustion gasses coming from the engine, reducing the Gear's infrared signature and making the exhaust noticeably quieter. None of the parts involved in the conversion are particularly expensive, but the time and expertise required to properly install and maintain them in good working order means the "N" configuration remains rare among the Guard's ranks. Like all night fighting units, the vehicle is painted iwth a dark, non-reflective paint similar to the one used by the various stealth designs currently in service. This sometimes has cuased a Jaguar-N to be mistaken for the more powerful Panther stealth commando unit, which is also based on a Jaguar frame. Fire Jaguar-N are also called "Night Jaguars" by their pilots.
