Special Notes:
Very flexible/complex structure makes for human-like motions
Extremely innovative design
Electronic drive system only with improved high-output electromagnetic musculature** (lacks fluid coupling of Binary drive system reducing weight of machine and improving flow of maneuverability)
knuckle attachment to protect finger joints on AS
incredibly silent when operating
nuclear Palladium Reactor highly efficient at converting energy (can run for months) and allows for the extra energy required to run ECS
control system fully employs AI capabilities, reducing burden on the pilot and inversely perfecting flexibility and reaction of AS
Undergoing official testing by US Army
Booster attachment capable
Underwater propulsion possible
Weapon attachment occurs at right hip
Sniper Rifle largest weapon M9 uses, collapsible for portibility
** Weight of musculature and cross-sectional area relationship important due to contraction-driven movement as a direct result of voltage passing through “conductive shape-memory polymer fibers.” Essentially, the larger the cross section the more it has to weigh. Per-fiber output efficiency is the direct cause of a lighter weight mecha.
