- Adaptive Camouflage System: Switches between Ranna’s Mandalorian colors and camouflage patterns suitable for her surrounding environment.
- Genetic Code Scan: While someone else could wear her armor, its functions are locked to Ranna.
- Code Cylinders: Both her own keys and for data storage.
- Magno Clasps: Each of the armor plates can be adaptively magnetized for weapon and gear stowage.
- Micrel Power Cells: Dispersed throughout the armor as needed.

- Crushgaunts: The only beskar in her armor, increases grip strength and protects Ranna’s hands.
- Knee Rockets: Four per knee, each rocket dart can be individually targeted and fired.
- Thermex: For demolitions work, kept in belt pouches separate from the detonators.
- Bowie Knife: Strapped to the outside of her right boot.
- Made for piloting, Built for space: Ranna’s armor interfaces with her fighter for greater awareness/control and is a capable space suit outside of it.
- Highly Mobile: Jetpack, extra thrusters and a field disruptor allow quick repositioning, sometimes to unexpected locations.
- Energy & Kinetic Stopper: Specialized to stop the most common weaponey on the battlefield and protect Ranna from the kinetic impact inferred from hits and nearby explosions.
- Not Beskar: It wont stop a lightsaber or similar weapon other than a glancing blow.
- No Heavy Weapons: To save weight and space, there isn’t a missile in the jetpack or heavy gauntlet weapons like wrist rockets.
While good at fixing things, building a whole set of esoteric armor is a bit beyond Ranna. Instead she turned to the professional armorsmiths of the Mandalorian Enclave whose advice she followed for much of the design. The largest exception being picking duranium over the more protective, but far heavier beskar traditionally favored by Mandalorians for its lighter weight and comfort during long periods of wear, particularly while in a fighter.
To facilitate piloting the undersuit doubles as a thinsuit which protects Ranna from the vacuum of space, and airborne chemicals/radiation to an extent. Made with bistate gel and armorweave it also adds protection between the strike plates of her armor and from concussive forces such as near explosions. Layered into the suit are the charge connectors and control lines for the various systems spread throughout the armor, negating the need to network them remotely. All in a comfortable moisture-wicking package.
It is said that a Mandalorian’s armor is a reflection of the wearer themselves and this holds true for Ranna’s. Rather than load up on overwhelming offensive weapons or insurmountable defenses, it offers her lateral options to situations while supporting her piloting and mechanical duties.
