There are a number of ties made to the original novel Starship Troopers in the third film that were non-existent in the first two. In those films, the Mobile Infantrymen used body armor to protect themselves, with a large portion of the bodies exposed; not that the armor was in any way effective: in the opening scene of the film, a trooper is killed when a shovel impales him right through the armor. The suits which were worn towards the end of the third film were reminiscent of the powered armor used in the novel. In fact, the name of the project in the new film, "Marauder Project", uses the same name as the common type of powered armor used for the Mobile Infantry in the novel: Marauder-class powered armor. The suits covered the trooper's whole body and were made in such a way that they would imitate exactly what motions a trooper was making with more powerful hydraulic-like systems, whereas the suits in the film are more Mecha like, in that they are piloted rather than worn.

Moreover, the manner in which Rico and his squad land on OM-1 is more similar to the novel than in the previous films. Each trooper's suit is its own planetary entry vessel, which disperses debris as a diversion on the way down from orbit. Rico also uses the phrase "on the bounce", which was used often in the novel, relating to the powered armor's ability to bounce over terrain using jump jets.

The Q Bomb is similar to the Nova Bomb from the novel, which was a weapon capable of destroying a planet. It was described in the novel as cracking open a planet, a phrase which the Sky Marshal at the end of the film uses as well. The name "Q Bomb" could be a reference to the movie "The Mouse That Roared", in which the United States had an experimental weapon that was more powerful than the "H Bomb"

A further tie with the novel is the home base of the fleet, a secret planet called Sanctuary. In the novel, this is also the base of the fleet and where Rico undergoes officer training .
