    • 8 Chippy links

The Systems Operators’ specialist equipment is centred on the usually belt-carried Lens computer, which can be connected to other equipment via its 5 chippy ports and allows all systems to be centrally controlled and all their outputs collectively monitored on the single portable gel monitor. Additional sensors or equipment, such as triggers for directed anti-personnel charges, perimeter sensors, special communication systems or other devices, can also be hooked into the Lens network, where available.

(Also, let me briefly note that equipment for Charlie’s Point already made a prior appearance on d6ideas in the form of the Tower Aerospace Firedrake.)

That’s Charlie’s Point.
