Starship Troopers novel
The Marauder Suit is the basic Power Armor used by the Mobile Infantry. Each armored suit is customized to fit each individual. The armor is designed to give a trooper many times more strength, to let them jump over buildings at ease, and to deflect enemy fire.
Starship Troopers anime
Marauders are known as Soldier Suits (歩兵タイプ Hohei Taipu "Infantry Type").
Different to the novel version, the Powered Suit in the anime uses a variety of machine guns as primary armaments, while the Y-Rack on the back of the armor is on the left shoulder instead. Also, the hatch opens from front instead of back.
The Soldier Suits can also mount various optional equipment, such as the missile launcher, the Y-Rack, and the flame thrower. In addition, the Soldier Suits have three extra variations:
- P.S.Variation, Type-1: Flame and LASER unit equipment
- P.S.Variation, Type-2: High gravity planet method "DEEP DIVER"
- P.S.Variation, Type-3: VOLCANO-RIFLE-SYSTEM loading type
