One of the standard features of all Matsuya Custom Vehicles used by X-Force is the honeycombed armor and frame material.  This provides these vehicles with a positive buoyancy above 200 feet under water, even if flooded.  The design of the armor is such that is does not weaken the protective capacity of it.


Notes:
This vehicle is a flying vehicle designed to operate over (or on) water.  Its highest efficiency is at altitudes from five to fifteen feet above the water.
