Jet packs and Heavy armor
Jet packs and heavy armor work like upgrades (providing enhanced abilities for marines) but must be purchased and dropped individually for each marine, like weapons. For this reason they are listed and explained in the weaponry section. This equipment can only be dropped with range of a prototype lab.
