It isn't narmour. I took off the titanium sheet to get a shot of the insides. Look at the pic on the right and you'll see what it actually looks like. I'm not sure about the batteries, either. I think it's minimum 7 to be fully powered because the BSGs take about 25 amps for full power. So that's five for the two BSGs plus two for the drive and one extra because it makes me feel better. I'll experiment with 6 to see how it performs, though.
