Developed to function as a heavy weapons platform to work alongside the troops in the battlefield. It is equipped with a wide array of sensor and data gathering hardware such as radar, wide spectrum optical scanners from infrared to ultraviolet, night vision, telescopic cameras and specialized targeting sensors and lasers.

One of its key features are its wide angle stereoscopic lenses, two mounted at either side of the head, giving the unit a complete 360ΒΊ tridimensional field of vision, allowing it to maintain complete battlefield awareness. This is complemented with antennas for short range communication with the soldiers within the squad and other S.A.U.R. units and satellite antenna to relay mission status and orders to and from HQ.

Acting as a "walking gunship" its armament is comprised of Vulcan cannon, Hydra rockets, head mounted quad chain guns and a retractable - hip mounted launcher capable of deploying different kind of grenade ordnance such as standard grenades, chaff and countermeasures.

Other complementary equipment include a tail mounted grapling claw that serves as a battering ram and drill to take down and puncture entry points into structures and if necessary it is programmed to use it within close quarter combat situations.

It is powered by a [***CLASSIFIED***] power plant outputing a maximum of [***CLASSIFIED***]

It is armored with a special anti impact, anti heat [***CLASSIFIED***] alloy.

Its versatile frame allow this unit to maneuver with ease in the enclosed scenarios of urban warfare while maintaining the capacity to run up to speeds of 40 MPH. ( aprox. 64KPH) [DISCLOSED SPEED]

Height at hip joint: 6 1/2 ft. (2 meters)

But in all seriousness, thanks for the kind comment. While I'm happy with the way my art has progressed, I know there is still much improvement ahead for me to achieve parity with art titans like the ones seen on a site like this.
