    - multi-purpose Versile II missiles
    - - developer: Hughes
    - HELLFIRE missiles
    - LOSAT missiles
  • 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.
