Designer Notes
The Jackrabbit is a typical example of the various models of combat bikes used by motorized infantry forces around the world. It was designed during the second half of the 19th century and drew much inspiration from PAxton's well-established Random IX patrol/combat bike. The similarities, however, are mostly of a cosmetic nature, and the Jackrabbit's performance surpasses by far that of the Random: greater speed and acceleration, superior armor and improved maneuverability. It was first designed by Republic Industries, then sub-contracted to a half a dozen private manufacturers for a hefty licensing fee. This allowed Republic Heavy Industries the leisure to focus on several improvements for the Jackrabbit, which it plans to release in the coming cycle(s?) under the new name of Jumpspider. It is expected, however, that the Jumpspider may cost over twice the Jackrabbit.
