บท 625: 625 Space Combat Upgrade

It was very early the next morning when Max got the official message from the Research and Development team that the upgrade for the Mecha was ready to be put into production. The existing vent nacelles for the crystal-based energy cores would be upgraded to vectored thrusters, mostly unsuitable to use on the surface but capable of extremely agile maneuvering in space when coupled with a shield modification to reduce the inertial mass of the Mecha itself, similar to the effect of a warp field, but on a much less extreme level. 

The existing repair hangars could produce the thruster units, and the whole upgrade process would take less than a man-hour per Mecha. Overall, it was an upgrade without any downside that Max could see other than the power usage of the thrusters themselves.
