SYS 01CORE
Cyan-core reactor
A hex-housed core cell behind the chest plate. It idles with a slow pulse and surges on demand, feeding the drive, the blade and every actuator.

Kestrel Works · Heavy frame programme
Type-07
Frame
Eighteen metres of modular steel.
A pilot-operated heavy frame with a cyan-core reactor, vectoring thrusters and a confined plasma blade, all under armour you can swap in an afternoon.

// 01 — Systems
Four systems. One frame.
Every system below runs on the model above. Press a button and the frame carries it out, live.
SYS 02LIFT
Vectoring thrusters
Twin pods on the back with gimballed nozzles. They lift the full 38 t frame clear of the pad, hold a hover and swing the thrust line for pivots.
2 × 410 kNpeak thrust±25°vectoring
SYS 03MELEE
Beam blade
A confined plasma edge that extends from a forearm emitter in under half a second and sheathes just as fast. No fuel, no hilt-heat, no drama.

SYS 04SHELL
Modular armour
Forty-one bolt-on plates over a gunmetal inner frame. Swap a limb, a skirt or a whole shoulder in an afternoon, with six tools and no crane time.

// 03 — How it's built
Built in layers.
Slide to peel the armour off the frame. Everything the pilot touches bolts on; everything that carries load stays inside.
AssembledExploded
01
Frame
A gunmetal inner cage, spine and joint stack carry every load.
02
Drives
Reactor, thruster pods and actuators clip straight onto the cage.
03
Armour
Desert-khaki plates bolt on in under an hour per limb.
04
Finish
Burnt-orange edging and hazard decals, applied last.
