Health Packs
Often referred to as "health packs," medkits interface with a Frontiersman's armor, releasing targeted bursts of medical nanites directly to damaged areas. Medkits can be dropped anywhere. Medical nanites have not been approved for civil use, and have been shown to have severe long-term side effects. Frontiersmen philosophy is that death is a long-term side effect. Other risks are just part of the job.
