Standard Jump Jets
Jump Jets funnel superheated air to propel 'Mechs over obstacles in a controlled manner. Additionally, they may also be used to perform the dreaded 'Death from Above' attack.

Improved Jump Jets
Jump Jets funnel superheated air to propel 'Mechs over obstacles in a controlled manner. Additionally, they may also be used to perform the dreaded 'Death from Above' attack. Improved Jump Jets (IJJ) are bulkier than standard jump jets, but allow more of them to be stacked onto a 'Mech than normal jump jets, increasing your available jump distance to be roughly equivalent to the 'Mech's sprint speed. Improved Jump Jets also produce much less heat than a normal jump jet.

3rd Gen. Jump Jets
Developed by St. Ives in response to excessive Capellan aggression, the 3rd Generation Jump Jet functions similarly in strength to the Inner Sphere's Improved Jump Jets, but with the tonnage and size of a normal, non-improved, jump jet. This leads the 3rd Generation Jump Jet to be the best of all worlds: the power of an improved jump jet with no drawbacks of that technology. 3rd Gen. Jump Jets are Community Content gear.
