#2 Next a mini-nuke for its delivery package, allowing integrated troops with disabilities (ITDs) to have massive fire power from their tracked wheelchairs. (do I need to put a /sarc on that?)

#3 Even needing to modify the existing 203s, this would be very worth it. A little extra cost for a hell of a lot more bang.
