===M12B general info===
===M12B general info===
Late in 2552 a second chassis was used that incorporated side compartments into the body, features a more angular body style, utility bars over the hood and around the bed, and several other largely cosmetic changes, while keeping a similar design to the first one. This design typically carries several Jerrycans filled with water to be rendered into hydrogen for the engine. It has a lighting system of 24 LED brake light and ULED headlights. This chassis has a programmable nano-prismatic paint to refract color at any chromacity depending on the vehicle's destination. A security bit was designed to prevent marines from tinkering with the finish, based on early and embarrassing experiences of the tech's deployment.<ref name="Altervista"/>

Future models of the M12 use this design. Unlike the models used throughout the Human-Covenant War, however, this chassis uses a swing-axle system, a redesigned transmission and drive shafts, and constant-velocity joints.
