==Description== [[Chilton]] is the brand or design name of a family of [[Jump Jets]]. There are multiple models of Chilton jump jets that are produced by several manufacturers across the [[Inner Sphere]]. Interestingly whether the Chilton name refers to an actual manufacturer, an engineer, a design firm or a publisher of technical documents has been lost to antiquity. Notwithstanding that there is no actual Chilton factory, the base Chilton design is among the oldest and most common names in jump technology. ==Standard Jump Jets== The Chilton standard jump jet designs have been produced in a myriad of variants. The best known versions are listed below. ===Model 360=== The Chilton 360 is a light jump pack most commonly installed in the Stinger. This model has also been employed in the Firestarter<ref name=OR80>''Objective Raids'', p. 80, "Components Produced by Coventry Metal Works</ref>, Vulcan<ref name=OR80/>, and Duan Gung<ref name=RS3060p108>''Record Sheets: 3060 Unabridged'' p. 108</ref>. {|class="wikitable" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 2px solid black;" |'''Manufactured on''' |'''Manufactured by''' |'''Typically used in''' |'''References''' |---- |[[Ares (planet)|Ares]] |[[Bergan Industries]] |[[Stinger|STG-3R ''Stinger'']] |<ref name=OR140>''Objective Raids'', p. 140,"Components Produced by Bergan Industries on Ares"</ref> |---- |[[Grand Base]] |[[Earthwerks Incorporated]] |[[Stinger|STG-3R ''Stinger'']] |<ref name=OR144>''Objective Raids'', p. 144, "Components Produced by Earthwerks Incorporated"</ref> |---- |[[Calloway VI]] |[[Earthwerks Incorporated]] |[[Stinger|STG-5M ''Stinger'']] |<ref name=OR121>''Objective Raids'', p. 121, "Components Produced by Earthwerks Incorporated on Calloway VI"</ref> |---- |[[Keystone]] |[[Earthwerks Incorporated]] |[[Stinger|STG-5M ''Stinger'']] |<ref name=OR130>''Objective Raids'', p. 130, "Components Produced by Earthwerks Incorporated on Keystone"</ref> |---- |[[Coventry]] |[[Coventry Metal Works]] |[[Firestarter|FS9-S ''Firestarter'']] and [[Vulcan (BattleMech)|VL-5S ''Vulcan'']] |<ref name=OR80/> |---- |[[Alpheratz]] |[[Alliance Defenders Limited]] |[[Stinger|STG-3R ''Stinger'']] |<ref name=OR186>''Objective Raids'', p. 186, "Index of Component Manufacturers"</ref> |---- |[[MacLeod's Land]] |[[Pinard Protectorates Limited]] |[[Stinger|STG-3R ''Stinger'']] |<ref name=OR158>''Objective Raids'', p. 158, "Components Produced by Pinard Protectorates Limited on MacLeod's Land"</ref> |---- |[[Victoria (CC)|Victoria]] |[[Shengli Arms]] |[[Duan Gung|D9-G9 ''Duan Guang'']] |† <ref name=RS3060p108/> |---- |} ===Model 365=== To date there is only one noted user of the Chilton Model 365. The 60 ton [[Anvil]] sports this three ton jump system giving it a jump range of around 90 meters. {|class="wikitable" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 2px solid black;" |'''Manufactured on''' |'''Manufactured by''' |'''Typically used in''' |'''References''' |---- |[[Gibson]] |[[Free Worlds Defense Industries]] |[[Anvil|ANV-3M ''Anvil'']] |<ref name=TRO3055U48>''Technical Readout: 3055 Upgrade'', p. 48, "Anvil 'Mech Components Produced on Gibson"</ref> |---- |} ===Model 460=== To date the model 460 has only been employed on the [[Quickdraw]]. This five ton unit launches the 60 ton Quickdraw 150m in a bound. {|class="wikitable" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 2px solid black;" |'''Manufactured on''' |'''Manufactured by''' |'''Typically used in''' |'''References''' |---- |[[Luthien]] |[[Luthien Armor Works]] |''[[Quickdraw]]'' |<ref name=OR69>''Objective Raids'', p. 69, "Components Produced by Luthien Armor Works on Luthien"</ref> |---- |[[Savannah]] |[[Technicron Manufacturing]] |''[[Quickdraw]]'' |<ref name=OR133>''Objective Raids'', p. 133, "Components Produced by Technicron Manufacturing on Savannah"</ref> |} ===Model 465=== The Chilton 465 is the system employed on the ubiquitous [[Crusader]]. The type has also been used on the [[Tempest]] and a later refit of the [[Thunderbolt]]. {|class="wikitable" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 2px solid black;" |'''Manufactured on''' |'''Manufactured by''' |'''Typically used in''' |'''References''' |---- | [[Asuncion]] | [[Kallon Industries]] | [[Crusader|CRD-5M ''Crusader'']] | <ref name=OR137>''Objective Raids'', p. 137, "Components Produced by Kallon Industries on Asunction"</ref> |---- | [[Calloway VI]] | [[Earthwerks-FWL, Incorporated]] | [[Anzu|ZU-G60 ''Anzu'']]<br>[[Anzu#Variants|ZU-G70 ''Anzu'']] | <ref name="TRO:3145FWLp32+">''Technical Readout: 3145 Free Worlds League'', p. 32-33, "ZU-G60 ''Anzu''"</ref> |---- | [[Irian]] | [[Irian BattleMechs Unlimited]] | [[Tempest|TMP-3M ''Tempest'']] |†<ref name=TRO3055U50>''Technical Readout: 3055 Upgrade'', p. 50, "Components Produced by Irian BattleMechs Unlimited on Irian"</ref> |---- | [[Keystone]] | [[Earthwerks Incorporated]] | [[Thunderbolt|TDR-9M ''Thunderbolt'']] |†<ref name=TROPP42>''Technical Readout: Project Phoenix'', p. 42, "Components Produced by Earthwerks Incorporated on Keystone"</ref> |---- | [[Oliver]] | [[Brigadier Corporation]] | [[Crusader|CRD-5M ''Crusader'']] | <ref name=OR85>''Objective Raids'', p. 85, "Components Produced by Brigadier Corporation on Oliver"</ref> |} ===Model 466=== The Chilton 466 is used in the [[Thunderbolt|TDR-10M ''Thunderbolt'']] variant and likely represents a slight variation of the Chilton 465 used in the TDR-9M. This dual leg mounted array is capable of launching the 65 ton 'Mech 120m in a bound. {|class="wikitable" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 2px solid black;" |'''Manufactured on''' |'''Manufactured by''' |'''Typically used in''' |'''References''' |---- |[[Keystone]] |[[Earthwerks Incorporated]] |[[Thunderbolt|TDR-10M ''Thunderbolt'']] |† <ref name=TRO3085>''Technical Readout: 3085'', p. 254, "Components Produced by Earthwerks Incorporated on Keystone"</ref> |} ===Model 600=== The Chilton 600 Jump Jet kit is the one of the largest entries in the Chilton family. First installed in the [[Marauder II]] in 3012 this type is also found on the ''[[Colossus (BattleMech)|Colossus]]''. Of note is that the Colossus is itself a descendant of the Marauder II and it is unclear if Omnitech produces their own units of this design or imports them. For that matter [[General Motors]] themselves are relatively mum on whether they make the Chilton 600 themselves or if they have an OEM vendor. {|class="wikitable" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 2px solid black;" |'''Manufactured on''' |'''Manufactured by''' |'''Typically used in''' |'''References''' |---- |[[Solaris VII]] |[[Omnitech Industries]] |[[Colossus (BattleMech)|CLS-4S ''Colossus'']] |† <ref>''Technical Readout: 3055 Upgrade'', p. 172</ref> |---- |[[New Valencia]] |[[General Motors]] |[[Marauder II|MAD-4A ''Marauder II'']] |† <ref>''Technical Readout: 3039'', p. 302</ref> |---- |} ===Model 850 Mk. II=== A likely development of the Chilton 600, the model 850 Mk. II is found on the 4K and 4S variants of the [[Marauder II]]. Providing a similar jump capacity and similar mass in a similar configuration to the Model 600, the Chilton 850 Mk. II may simply represent manufacturing changes to fit in the redesigned Marauder II chassis for the 4K and 4S variants. The exact differences between the models is not known at this time. {|class="wikitable" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 2px solid black;" |'''Manufactured on''' |'''Manufactured by''' |'''Typically used in''' |'''References''' |---- |[[New Valencia]] |[[General Motors]] |[[Marauder II|MAD-4S ''Marauder II'']] |<ref name=TROPPU56>''Technical Readout: Project Phoenix'', p. 56, "MAD-4S Marauder II"</ref> |---- |[[Outreach]] |[[Blackwell Industries]] |[[Marauder II|MAD-4S ''Marauder II'']] |<ref name=TROPPU56/> |} ==Chilton Improved Jump Jets== Like other types of [[Improved Jump Jet]]s, the Chilton Improved series has been developed based on technical information developed by the [[Clan Wolf-in-Exile]] that has been spread throughout the inner sphere. Heavier than their standard versions, Improved Jump Jets allow a mech to travel further with less heat. <ref>''TechManual'', p. 225</ref> ===Model 21 Improved=== A development by Bowie Industries, the Chilton Model 21 Improved provides the 70 ton [[Archer|ARC-9M ''Archer'']] with a 150 meter bounding distance, a substantial improvement to the reduced ground speed of the ARC-9M. Other manufacturers soon adopted the design of both the mech and its systems. {|class="wikitable" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 2px solid black;" |'''Manufactured on''' |'''Manufactured by''' |'''Typically used in''' |'''References''' |---- |[[Carlisle]] |[[Bowie Industries]] |[[Archer|ARC-9M ''Archer'']] |<ref name=TRO3085U256>''Technical Readout: 3085 Upgrade'', p. 256, "ARC-9M Archer"</ref> |---- |[[Calloway VI]] |[[Earthwerks Incorporated]] |[[Archer|ARC-9M ''Archer'']] |<ref name=TRO3085U256>''Technical Readout: 3085 Upgrade'', p. 256, "ARC-9M Archer"</ref> |---- |[[Hun Ho]] |[[LexaTech Industries]] |[[Archer|ARC-9M ''Archer'']] |<ref name=TRO3085U256>''Technical Readout: 3085 Upgrade'', p. 256, "ARC-9M Archer"</ref> |} ===Model 950 Improved=== Like the Model 21 [[Improved Jump Jet]]s, the Model 950 provides significantly improved bounding distances compared to normal Jump Jets. Being developed for large quad `Mechs, the Chilton 950 is found on the [[Trebaruna]] and 6C variant of the [[Sirocco]] and is one of the largest and heaviest Jump Jet systems available. {|class="wikitable" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 2px solid black;" |'''Manufactured on''' |'''Manufactured by''' |'''Typically used in''' |'''References''' |---- |[[New Earth]] |[[J.B.

As this variant is a refit, the OEM manufacturer of the Chilton 1350 is unclear. Presumably the 1350 is being produced on Tikonov, the planet that the refit is being done on by the Federated Suns redesign team. Even this detail however is not clear from declassified sources. {|class="wikitable" style="background: #gray; text-align:center; border: 2px solid black;" |'''Manufactured on''' |'''Manufactured by''' |'''Typically used in''' |'''References''' |---- |[[Tikonov]] |Unknown |[[Marauder II|MAD-6D ''Marauder II'']] |<ref name=TRO3085U268>''Technical Readout: 3085 Upgrade'', p. 106, "MAD-6D Marauder II"</ref> |} ==Notes== † References unclear whether this factory produces or imports this equipment ==References== <references/> ==Bibliography== * ''[[Objective Raids]]'' * ''[[Record Sheets: 3060 Unabridged]]'' * ''[[Tech Manual]]'' * ''[[Technical Readout: 3039]]'' * ''[[Technical Readout: 3055 Upgrade]]'' * ''[[Technical Readout: 3085]]'' * ''[[Technical Readout: 3145 Free Worlds League]]'' * ''[[Technical Readout: Project Phoenix]]'' [[Category:Components]] [[Category:Technology]]
