Armor Specs: Mark 17
 Iron Man - The Experimental 'Safe' Armor Nickname:
Experimental Safe Armor
Designer:
Anthony Stark
Worn by:
Anthony Stark
Appeared:
Iron Man vol. 3 #14
Design Notes :
Shell Composition:
A drastic departure from the
traditional design due to health reasons. The old suits literally were killing
the wearer due to the energy fields. This suit was Tony Stark’s prototype armor
to get around that problem. It basically is a bulky, oversized suit that is
heavily insulated to protect the wearer from it’s own energy fields.
Power Source and Energy Information:
Beta Particle Generator
and Solar power converters, and Laser Absorption Grid.
Control Systems Interface:
Cybernetic Interface combined
with visual menu overlays with visual tracking system.
Weaponry:
*Repulsors: (Presumed to
be Mark 3, possibly Mark 4) Laser-guided particle beam emission units mounted
in the palm of each hand.
*Unibeam: (Presumed to be
Mark 3, possibly Mark 4) Multi-band light and force beam emitter. Can be
adjusted for a variety of effects such as search light, heat beams, tractor
beam, lasers, image inducers, ultraviolet light, and electromagnetic pulse.
*Pulse Bolt Generators: Plasma
discharges that build in intensity as they travel through the atmosphere,
picking up static and ambient energy.
*Force Shield: A focused
photon emitter on the back of his left wrist that shapes into a shield. (This
weapon was never used in this armor but is presumed to be standard issue for
Iron Man armor since the Armor Wars)
*Electromagnetic Pulse.
(This weapon was never used in this armor but is presumed to be standard issue
for Iron Man armor since the Armor Wars.)
Equipment:
*Life Support Equipment: The
eye and mouth hole slits could be sealed. The suit had a supply of air to last
about an hour. Also as with majority of Iron Man armors, this model has
underwater pressure tolerances of approximately 2000 feet, and has limited
space capabilities.
*Boot Jets: uses
high-speed triple-source turbines located in the boots.
*Force Field: By expanding
the field that keeps the armor rigid, the armor can encase itself in a
protective force field that is effective against most forms of attack. He can
also used this field to polarize the armor to either attract or repulse other
items of magnetic polarity. The armor can temporarily surround itself with a
force field that greatly increases its protection from attacks. While the force
field is engaged, the armor is unable to use any other systems.
*Voice Distortion Unit.
*Absorption Field Grid: Embedded
in the surface of the armor is an absorption grid. It is able to absorb energy
from attacks or surrounding power sources to recharge the armor or redirect
into the weapons systems.
*Thermocouple: able to
absorb heat attacks and convert heat energy to usable energy for the armor.
*Protected Senses: The
armor contains ear protectors to baffle incoming noise greater than 70
decibels. Similarly, blinding lights trigger polarized lenses in the helmet's
eye slots.
*Tractor and Repulsor Beam:
Using magnetism, the armor can generate a tractor and repulsor field.
*Language Translator: The
computer in his armor is able to translate to and from English and many of
Earth's more popular languages.
*Anti-Theft Device: The
armor is protected from anybody analyzing or duplicating the circuits in the
armor. Once tripped, the security circuits melt the interior of the armor to
slag. A few minutes later, the armor explodes to destroy itself.
Sensors:
Universal-Band two-way Radio. Also contains x-ray
and MRI scanning equipment plus radar and sonar. Also an enhanced
targeting computer system to guide his aim when using weaponry. Targeting
computer can be set to auto fire weapons in extreme situations.
