The Type 33A Nekovalkyrja is a variant of the nh-33. They were made for and primarily serve in the Star Army's planetary operations force, the Legions, beginning in YE 36.

The Star Army plans to use this variant of Nekovalkyrja combined with a possible updated or new power armor to replace the type_33_standard_infantry in YE 36 or YE 37 but plans are still fluid at this point.

The main differences are that a Nekovalkyrja Type 33A is:

• taller; She has a height of 180 centimeters (5'11“) while the base NH-33 is 160cm (5' 3”).
• more massive; She weighs 55kg while a base NH-33 weighs around 45kg (99lbs).
• able to project some solid volumetrics instead of only intangible ones.
• the 33A has enhanced support for authorized cybernetic enhancements

With regard to the solid volumetric projection, the ability can be used to project a hard light shield that can be used to block personnel-scale bullets and energy blasts. As for the cybernetics, they are not yet implemented those in development are classified secrets.

Type 33A Nekovalkyrja first appeared in YE 36 as part of a mass-production effort by the Star Army of Yamatai to bulk up its infantry forces due to the same heightened political tensions that resulted in UNION MAZE and other serious military preparatory action.

In the first months of production, the 33A variant only came with camouflage green skin. Because of its originally limited skin color, it was not very popular for soul transfer with older Nekovalkyrja, who prefer to resemble humans more closely or to retain exotic skin colors from previous bodies. Popular demand caused the rest of the spectrum to become available shortly afterwards.

As the Nekovalkyrja are now designated as a full species, the archaic “NH” designation (which stood for Doll Weapon in Yamataigo (邪馬台語)) has been dropped from their name; instead, the Star Army's preferred item-comma-type-year naming convention is used. This is considered less offensive. The Type 33A Nekovalkyrja is historic for being the first Nekovalkyrja type to use the new naming convention first the start.
