Gus




Designation: Golf - Set 01, "Gus."
Model: AT - 012311
Series: Shigekuni
Type: Autonomous Tactical  
Description: Integrated 7.62mm  assault rifle, with devoted individual AI targeting system. Bladed chain melee device. 20mm heavy cannon, with ten round drum, capable of firing optional explosive, incendiary, or armor piercing rounds. Intimidating full-frame all terrain chassis, encased in multi-layered composite fiber armor. Sleek skull design encourages fear responses within biological opponents.
Notes: Standing just over three meters, Gus's substantial size is intended to shock and awe during combat, security, and defense assignments. This has been moderately successful against human and hybrid adversaries, at least initially. Once the firing starts however, his looming stature tends to serve primarily as a bullet sponge. Fortunately, his devoted individual AI targeting system, his layered armor, and his ample supply of firepower are more often than not quite capable of providing an appropriate response  before total system shut down.
