Hello, and thank you for showing interest in the Model 74 'Aurora' Armored Anthroid Fighting Unit! I'd like to take a moment to congratulate you on considering this illustrious pinnacle of ingenious engineering to fulfill all your military needs. Our 74th iteration is our best yet, the culmination of years of extensive research, including lessons learned from deployed units in over 17 different theaters of operation.

Please review our catalog to see what capabilities we've given our latest creation:

Combat Features

Anticipatory Simulation Processor: A supplementary analytical mechanism autonomously collates and processes sensory data in conjunction with precognitive modeling to effectively determine events before they happen. Note that in addition to increasing accuracy, this also allows the unit to better avoid threats and situational hazards.

Recursive Fractal Targeting Calculations: The unit's offensive capabilities are augmented with experimental algorithms that allow it to unleash a rapid series of laser blasts that each enjoy greater accuracy than the last, progressively zeroing in on the target until there is nowhere left to dodge.

Dedicated Harmonic Targeting: An energy output modulator allows the unit to finely tune the frequency of laser attacks to phase out when passing through objects obscuring the target so that the entire amount of energy can be delivered directly to the target.

Optical Enhancement Package: A wide array of occular upgrades and augmentations are built into the unit's sensor array. Flash shutters protect against visual overstimulation, light-intensification filters allow for sight in extreme low-light conditions, and thermographic receptors detect minute variations of heat in the unit's surroundings. In addition, a series of jeweled sensors around the unit's body afford ultra-peripheral awareness in all directions.

Durability Features

Bodily Integrity Field: Using a system of widespread advanced magnetic couplers, the unit is able to maintain physical cohesion if it receives damage that would ordinarily sever a body part.

Alloyed Reinforcement of Flesh: Reinforcing wires, struts, and plating protects all important internal systems, allowing for the emergency bracing system to activate before severe attacks to mitigate damage.

Tireless Pneumatic Musculature: Artificial hydraulic muscles never weaken or tire, continuously repairing themselves as they operate, giving the unit nearly limitless operational time.

Body-Reweaving Matrix: A network of hidden compartments all over the unit open to reveal colonies of tiny repair drones that can quickly and efficiently repair damage, restoring the unite to pristine condition.
*Beneficence Programming: The unit can also apply the same technique on a much smaller scale to anyone contained within it, effectively administering medical treatment.

Subcutaneous Armor Plating: A fully articulated mesh of dense subdermal plates protects the unit from all sorts of small arms and even armor-piercing attacks while remaining hidden from plain sight.

Strain-Resistant Chassis Modification: The unit is equipped with armored plates over critical parts, redundant components for major systems, pressure-absorbing shock suppressors, and other measures to allow it to survive far more damage than has ever been possible before.

Magnetic Joint Bearings: The unit's joints are coated in a special anti-friction magnetic compound, protecting from wear and tear and permitting extreme speed of movement without risking deterioration over time.

Operational Features

Gyroscopic Stability System: A finely tuned series of gimbals allows a central spinning wheel to maintain perfect orientation, allowing the unit to keep perfect balance in even the most unstable of external circumstances.

Machine-Man Synergy Circuits: This advanced processing device connects the pilot's mind directly to the unit's central computer, allowing for simultaneous (or better!) communication between the two.

Dynamic Reaction Enhancement System: An array of superconducting metal runs through the spine of the unit that, when combined with an accelerated response system and dedicated hyperprocessor, facilitate instantaneous action, precise movements, and efficient maneuvers.

Interactivity Features

Subsidiary Personality Implant: A hidden memory core contains an alternate personality shard capable of replacing the default disposition of the unit upon receiving the designated command or other set catalyst.

Emotive Aesthetics of the Body Electric: In addition to being a weapon of war, the unit has a place in times of peace, thanks to a visually attractive appearance and agreeable behavioral patterns.

Empathy Simulation Engine: When activated, this complex assembly allows the unit to engage in social interactions fluidly, covering for the shortcomings of artificial intelligence by adopting a veneer of emotional responsiveness.

Interpolative Syntax Emulator: Artificial synapse webs connect the auditory sensors with the arithmetic logic unit, enabling any form of communication to be rendered into raw numeric data and reconfigured to mesh with currently understood modes of expression. After spending a couple minutes listening to an unfamiliar language, the unit automatically gains a mastery of the new language. A fluency vocodor even manages to reproduce accents accurately as well.
