プレビュー★ＡＳＨＡＵ-455Ｐ「アッシュ」

Autonomous Synthetic Humanoid Anti-tank Unit Model 455 Prototype ASHAU-455P A less-sturdy but more-balanced model than previous iterations. ASHAU-455P, who prefers to be referred to as "455" or simply "Ash", is a combat android with a good balance of agility and power. His body is powered by a higher-output reactor than those of other androids his size, but there are many checks in place to budget his power usage. Various parts of his highly-conductive interior can expand to disperse and store excess energy, and will expand during energy overflow to avoid overheating. Ash is equipped with minimal armour despite being an anti-tank unit. This is to ensure that his agility is not compromised. His only piece of traditional armour is a narrow HF-resistant plate on his chest which covers his diagnostic ports. His armoured sleeves are made of a flexible variant of the same material, and are useful for deflecting HF blades and projectiles. Ash’s hair, skirt, and feet are also reinforced. Ash is armed with a heavily-modified version of the standard HF spear, which we call the H4 Spear, or more specifically the HHHTHCHF spear, which stands for “High-Adaptive Hardness High Thermality High Conductivity and High Frequency”. At maximum energy output, its blade cuts through steel as if it were butter. However, much like Ash’s own reactor, the H4 Spear’s onboard reactor is far too powerful for it to constantly operate at full capacity without overheating, so its power is best used sparingly to ensure that neither Ash nor the H4 are damaged from the weapon discharging its overflowing energy.
