Mishhuvurthyar "Ripper" Power Armor

The "Ripper" is a newer Mishhuvurthyar power armor designed to be piloted by the easily-created Mishhuvurthyar brain-slave pilots. It is slightly larger than a Mindy power armor, heavily armed, and extremely strong. It appears to have a heavy influence of Star Army technology in it.

The "Ripper" was first encountered in a brief sighting on Tami by a pilot from the YSS Mikomi (NS-X1-95) during the Battle of Tami. Since then, it has appeared a handful of times in battles against the Mishhuvurthyar.

Organization: SMX
Type: Anti-Armor Armor
Manufacturer: Unknown

Pilot: One "Brain Slave" Type 2 Mishhuvurthyar

Appearance: Hulking, rounded armor with stocky torso and a flattened head possessing four bright green eyes on the front, two on the back, and two small horn-like antennae on either side. Wide, buckler-like forearms with razor edges. More slender legs with sharp lines on the fronts. Burst thrusters on the buttocks area. An additional Zesuaium chain-mail armor tunic is not uncommon.

Height: 230cm (7.5')
Mass: about 200kg (441 lbs)

Speeds (space): 2500c
Speed (planetary): Mach 1.5 at sea level

Weapons Systems:
  • Forearm Light Aether Cannons (Comparable to those found on the Ke-M3 Kylie)
  • Scalar Projectors (palms of the hands)
  • Shoulder-mounted subspace-encased positron tunneling cannon (space use)
  • Shoulder-mounted subspace-encased 50mm gauss rifle (atmospheric use)
  • Optional Aether Rifle/Lance
  • Optional Missile Launchers (hips)
  • Optional Back Units?
 
Okay, I'm both happy and puzzled that this armor was finally revealed.

Happy: Yay! Something that's not a mishhu attack pod and will be able to match up with the neko-piloted Mindy. Just like the Officer pods in Macross (Glaugs?) were compared to Valkyrie transformable fighters.

Puzzled: Why for brainslaves only? I don't get it. This thing would have about the ideal shape to be operated by Monster, Hybrid and Humanoid types Mishhuvurthyar (okay, two of those are actually Dark One derivated...). I mean, they are biped, right? The mishhu have little reason to go for a biped power armor type for their brainslaves after all.
