hulkbuster

The Mark XLIV (Mark 44), also known as Hulkbuster is an Extra Heavy-Duty Modular Armor[1] created by Tony Stark and Bruce Banner as a security safeguard in the event of an uncontrollable Hulk rampage. The armor works by attaching itself to the base armor of the Mark XLIII. The armor was featured in Avengers 2: Age of Ultron, wherein it was used through Veronica's activation to subdue a rampaging Hulk in South Africa.[2] Its design was completely based on the Hulkbuster Armor from the comic books, confirming that this is the same armor with the same name as the one from the comics. The Mark XLIV is extremely large in size. The armor has a dark red tone as its overall plating color, along with golden plates in various areas of its structure. It is covered with layered pieces of metal and has multiple Arc Reactors around its body. The Hulkbuster is eleven feet high, which makes it the tallest armor to date. Its height is 3 feet taller than the Hulk. Aside from its height, it is also the heaviest armor existing in the MCU. The Hulkbuster is a Modular Armor wherein armor pieces are attached to a base armor making it much bigger. Armor Design TBA Features Armor: The Armor is an extension of the Mark XLIII, allowing it to be bigger and stronger than the normal armor. It has approximately 11 arc reactors and a stronger repulsor-system to sustain flight. The Hulkbuster also has an energy-strength system to make it even stronger than the Hulk. It's armor plates have been upgraded to withstand the attacks of The Hulk and there is a storage satellite nicknamed "Veronica" that contains replacement pieces of armor to replace those damaged in battle. It also fits a normal Iron man suit inside of it Systems The Mark XLIV has various systems. the "Hulkbuster system" is very similar to the original mark XLIII, it does contain "J.A.R.V.I.S." software to help with its needs, as well "Veronica" which controls the airborne modular parts pod. Armor Composition The armor is composed of a dense gold-titanium alloy. Capabilities Prehensility: The armor has new Prehensile Technology, allowing it to replace damaged armor pieces. This is the second armor with the capability to replace damaged parts, with the first being the Mark XLI, Bones. Modularity: The armor features modular construction allowing it to switch its parts on-the-fly. Allowing it to complete wider variaty of task or to replace damaged modules. The modules include: Micro-Repeater arms, Back Arc reactor Packs and like more modules. Weapons Repulsors: The Mark XLIV is equipped with larger and more powerful repulsors to help sustain flight with the increased weight of the armor. Tony now has armor that appears to have outdated the Hulkbusters flight systems. Unibeam: The Hulkbuster armor has a very wide Unibeam, and is presumed to be very powerful. Hydraulic Micro-Punching Repeater : The Armor has a Hydraulic Micro-Punching Repeating Arm (if attached), which according to Tony "makes the Hulk sleep." Missiles: The armor also possesses four large Missiles. These missiles were used to destroy an unfinished building Tony was pushing the Hulk through. It is unknown where these missiles are located. Sedative Gas: The Hulkbuster armor contains Sedative gas in the wrist of its right arm to spray at the rampaging Hulk to (hypothetically) put him to sleep. The Mark XLIV was created by Tony Stark and Bruce Banner as a backup plan in case the Hulk went on a rampage, so as to contain the monster as much as possible. Built together as part of the system of Veronica, the armor was designed as a modular armor add-on to the base armor of the Mark XLIII featuring various weapons, immense power, and combat capabilities. To ensure that it was capable to take down the Hulk, the armor's size was designed twice that of the Hulk's. The armor was presumably tested and worked at various times by Stark and Banner before its ultimate perfection and completion. After its creation, the armor's pieces were stored in Veronica's pod and placed inside one of Stark's Satellites for future use. From then on Veronica and the armor were never used, until the events of Age of Ultron in the near future.
