Armor Description:
The Liger Zero's armor is decent for it's size. It's about as thick as the armor of the Jager and Schneider armor units. The coverage isn't so bad either, covering most of the Zoid with only a few small gaps on the legs, and a huge gap on the rear end.
Ion Turbo Booster Unit - Mounted and concealed in the Liger Zero's back are a pair of boosters. When activated the boosters increase the Liger Zero's speed to 300 kilometers per hour. Without them activated it runs at a pace of 285 kilometers per hour. Because they don't pivot the boosters don't help the Liger Zero at turning, but they do help with jumping.
Downforce Stabilizer x2 - Mounted on either side of the Liger Zero are a pair of extendable stabilizer wings. They mostly serve to improve the Liger Zero's agility and traction with the ground when moving at high speeds by increasing the amount of times the Liger Zero's legs hit the ground. When deployed they increase speed by 7 kilometers per hour and in conjunction with the boosters bring the Liger Zero to it's top speed. Without them the Liger Zero's agility would be decreased somewhat.
Laser Fangs - The rows of razor-sharp extra-strength alloy teeth along the jaws of the Liger Zero can be charged up with laser energy for extra damage. It's front teeth aren't as long as those of the other Ligers and thus aren't as effective.
Strike Laser Claws x4 - One on the end of each of the Liger Zero's legs, these claws have four toes made of a sharp, extra-strength alloy. They can be charged with laser energy for more damage.
AZ208mm double-barreled Shock Cannon - Mounted under the chest and locked in a forward facing position. Each barrel is approximately 208mm.
AZ108mm High-Density Beam Gun - Mounted on the tail and locked in a rear-facing position it can aim wherever the tail can point.
Changeable Armor System - The Liger Zero's CAS is a lot like the Elephander and it's Conversion Parts System. While the Liger Zero only has the standard, white armor at first it can also support the Jager, Schneider, and Panzer armors. This allows the Liger Zero to react to a wide variety of different situations with different armor units. However, like the Elephander, the Liger Zero has to gain these other armor units through expensive modifications.
