The Warrior doesn't have a GMS. Don't know what its armour level is, but
I'd guess maybe 2 rather than 3, and probably not R. The cannon is,
IIRC, a
30mm (Rarden?), so RFAC-1 or 2 could be argued - maybe make it a 2 to
compensate for no GMS?
Jon (GZG) - who is rusty on moderns at the moment (too much SF to think
about) and may well be wrong!
