Greetings, nations and their respectable leaders and rulers, from Muttia Incorporated. We at Muttia, Inc. have been working on the new leader of modern warfare, the new superweapon of the world. It's name? Der Reinigungsapparat. What does it mean? The Purifier.
Der Reinigungsapparat is the new age of weapons, the new object to be feared by all on the battlefield. Intimidating, shocking, horrifying. Such are just words...we bring you the action.
By unveiling Der Reinigungsapparat, we have unveiled the face of modern warfare as it shall be forevermore. A battle of mechanized superweapons whose faces remain in the nightmares of soldiers all over. This is not just a war device, no. This is the war device. This is a device capable of making even the most cruel dictator piss his pants.
Der Reinigungsapparat is a new kind of machine. Created using state-of-the-art technology and advanced systems and weaponry, Der Reinigungsapparat is like no other.
A bipedal beast, larger than any MBT or bomber plane, and capable of firing a 10 kiloton nuclear missile at a target 485 miles away. They won't even see it coming...FLASH. BOOM. It's over.

Powerplant/Movement System
"Der Reinigungsapparat", or DRGS for short, is a technological amazement, especially when it comes to its movement system. The DRGS uses what has become universally known as artificial muscle tissue, which provides the DRGS with great flexibility and organic motion.
The DRGS is also amphibious, meaning it is able to "live" on land and water. When the DRGS is underwater, little openings on the "wings" of the DRGS produce a magnetohydrodynamic drive, or MHD propulsor (co-developed with Emeraldia Corporation of Truitt).
The drive is a method for propelling sea-going vessels, in which case the DRGS falls under such a category. An electric current is passed through seawater in the presence of an intense magnetic field. Functionally, the seawater is the moving, conductive part of an electric motor. Pushing the water out the back accelerates the vehicle. The propulsor is silent, which makes it an undetectable stealth superweapon for underwater warfare.
Crew
The DRGS is a one-crewed "vehicle". The pilot sits in a cockpit which projects an image of the outside world all around, which makes it appear that the cockpit walls have become transparent. This is done by numerous sensors situated all around the DRGS, which are protected substantially and have no obvious vulnerabilities to weapons.
The DRGSes cockpit is located in the "head" area of the bipedal craft, which is heavily armored.
Armament and Armor
The DRGS is the modern superweapon, capable of turning any war, any conflict, any disagreement into the owner's favor. When you have the DRGS, everyone fears you. Why, you ask? Because of its armament, its array of weapons.
The DRGS has two 32mm machine guns, with one on the end of each of the wings. These 32mm guns have a rate of fire of 500 rounds per minute, which will strike fear into even the most impregnable opponent.
On the back of the DRGS are 6 verticle missile launch tubes, which can release numerous forms of diverse missiles (such as surface to surface, surface to air, etc.). Also, these launchers can launch miniature nuclear missiles, which is an invaluable asset in modern warfare. The tubes convert (with the press of a few buttons) into two mid-sized missile launchers, capable of firing a small nuclear missile. However, do to the limited size of the launchers, the missile size is currently limited to a 5-10kt yield nuclear warhead.
On the "knees", located in the middle of the bipedal areas, are also missile launchers which launch 72mm High Explosive/Anti-Tank missiles.
Even with this powerful arsenal, one weapon on the DRGS stands out and rises above all others within the machine's armament. This weapon is a hydro-cannon, and has been nicknamed by the designers on the project as "The Overlord Device."
The hydro cannon works by firing a jet of extremely high-pressure water at a high velocity, which enables the cannon to cut dense materials (such as tanks or ships). The hydro cannon is located behind the head area, just below the cockpit area. In order to fire the cannon, the DRGSes head opens into three segments, which create a stable firing enviroment for the high power weapon.
Battlefield Situations
The DRGS is designed so it can handle all battlefield situations, as well as any area. However, being that this "creature" is so tremendously massive, it cannot fly or become aeronautic. Therfore, the DRGS is not suited for air combat. However, it can engage aircraft and emerge victorious (due to its armament and impenetrable armor.)
The DRGS is extremely tolerant of harsh conditions, including rain, snow, and sandstorms.
The defensive systems, such as armor, on the DRGS are also state of the art, with extremely resistant armor surrounding the entire machine. The armor is made of carbon fiber composites, which is a strong, light, and very expensive material. Each carbon filament is made out of long, thin sheets of carbon similar to graphite. A common method of making carbon filaments is the oxidation and thermal pyrolysis of polyacrylonitrile (PAN), a polymer used in the creation of many synthetic materials. Like all polymers, polyacrylonitrile molecules are long chains, which are aligned in the process of drawing fibers.
The fibers are bonded side to side, in narrow graphene sheets, which form a single filament. The armor also contains numerous composites, as well as titanium alloys. These materials help shield the DRGS from many different types of enemy firing systems, and make it a very-close-to-indestructable vehicle.
Specialty Systems
The DRGS contains a number of diverse and specially crafted systems, such as the control console (which is extremely advanced). The console controls all aspects and areas of the vehicle, and it is all concentrated into the one small control panel within the cockpit.
However, using a few newly designed technologies, the pilot also has the ability to run a program called "ISU-STR", which creates a virtual "world", in which the buttons are displayed on the transparent walls of the cockpit, making it easier to navigate. This program uses an AI program to run.
ISU-STR, when run, can also allow the pilot to put on "cruise control", which enables the program's AI to run the machine. The program is full of battlefield coding, enabling it to make the safest and most wise decisions. However, sometimes using the cruise control is impractable, such as when risks are needed to survive or when there is a better idea than what statistics and probabilities show.
Other systems include infared scanners, heatseeking locators, light reflection (makes the vehicle almost invisble to the naked eye by reflecting all light and creating a false identity), as well as advanced fire control and weapon loading systems.

Phase Two
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v212/Witzgall/Der%20Reinigungsapparat/imperium22.jpg
Powerplant/Movement System
Phase Two is powered by organic muscle tissue that was found within Phase One, as well as a new system of hydrogen fuel cells and a nitrogen mixture. The nitrogen acts as a catalyst between carbon dioxide, oxygen, and the hydrogen fuel cells, thus creating a new type of fuel called Raptior-X. Raptior-X was a joint project between Emeraldia Incorporated and Muttia Incorporated, which lasted several years of a partnership.
The fuel is a solid propellant and is very powerful. It can operate in all fields of the universe, including space and water. The fuel is highly resistant to weathering and harsh conditions.
Crew
Following the Phase One model of the DRGS, Phase Two is operated by one man and a controllable Artificial Intelligence system.
The AI system of Phase Two has been substantially upgraded since Phase One, and is much more powerful and capable of controlling the DRGS by itself. Utilizing a neural-networking system, which has been called "Utopia" by its creator (Johnathan Carvings, Scientist in the Witzgallian Army of Research), the AI of Phase Two is extremely powerful and intelligent.
The artificial neural network (ANN) is made up of several hundred nodes which make up a network of communication between the system and the vehicle itself. The network runs through the entire vehicle, allowing extremely fast responses.
The ANN allows for massive mathematical computations, as well as simple problems, to be solved in a matter of milliseconds. The ANN operates in "real time" by using special hardware and computers within the infrastructure of the Phase Two vehicle.
As a transfer function, a simple sigmoid curve system is used. It enables the nodes to "calculate and solve" at high speeds, as well as allowing break-free communications between the AI, nodes, and pilot.
When using the ANN, the pilot sees a large screen of "windows" which symbolize a group of five nodes each. The pilot or AI then monitors the information being switched between each "squad" of nodes by a subliminal program that is much like a internet service operator within its own structure.
Armament and Armor
The armament of the Phase Two vehicle is highly powerful when compared to that of the Phase One.
Using an electric system as its main armament, the Phase Two model is able to create an electromagnetic field and create its own "lightning bolts". It uses a wiring system to send out the wave of electricity, which resembles a lightning bolt. The wiring disintegrates upon concentration of the shock, and the bolt is targeted by using the nodes and AI system to generate a targeting system which bases itself off of infared and an unrivaled laser guidance system. The gun has been named "Zeus", honoring the Greek god who controlled lightning. The "Zeus" generates an electric shock (per shot) of over one million volts.
Also in the armament is the replacement for the 32mm and 72mm rockets and guns, which have been replaced by 42mm Gauss guns.
Therefor, the Phase Two vehicle incorporates four Gauss guns. A Gauss gun is a type of cannon that uses a series of electromagnets to accelerate a magnetic shell to very high velocities. The guns are highly powerful and devestating, and have a high rate of fire estimated at over 1,200 rounds per minute.
On the back of the Phase Two DRGS are ten verticle launch tubes, which is four more than that of the Phase One vehicle. These missile launchers can fire many diverse munitions, such as cluster bombs or nuclear missiles. A tactical nuke fired from the Phase Two DRGS can have a maximum yield of 15kT, which has a fireball radius of 130 meters, and a duration of 0.7 seconds. A 15 kiloton nuclear bomb/missile is the size of the nuke that demolished Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
The armor of the Phase Two model was highly crafted over a period of eleven years by those of us at Muttia Incorporated, alongside the Witzgallian Military Corps. It has been dubbed RĂ¼stung Des Gottes, which translates into "God's Armor". It operates as a system alongside two other forms of armor, which will be detailed later.
RĂ¼stung Des Gottes, or RDG for short, is a technology based off of explosive reactive armour (ERA). It uses sensors and microprocessors within the armor (as well as the armor envelope) to provide an optimized threat-defeat mechanism at a lightweight and small area. The sensors can determine numerous things, such as projectile velocity, impact location, and the diameter of the projectile. The microprocessor, on the other hand, determines the optimum time to initiate the armor.
A highly efficient armor-defeat mecahnism features insenstive energetic materials and initiators for increased safety.
RDG works alongside another form of advanced armor. This armor is known as Momentum Transfer Armor, or MTA for short.
MTA is an advanced form of reactive armor. MTA defeats kinetic energy threats in an efficient, compact modular configuration. Small bars are explosively launched in a direction perpendicular to the penetration path of a threat projectile to defeat the threat through fracture, deflection, and rotation (FDR).
The sensors of the RDG help calculate when to fire the MTA before it is hit, as well as other complications that can easily be solved by this brotherhood of armors.
RDG and MTA can also be "wrapped" in NxRA, which is Non-Explosive Reactive Armor. NxRA is a proven technology that is highly efficient against chemical-energy munitions, like those found in shaped-charge warheads. It is a passive armor, inexpensive, and easy to integrate onto vehicles and their structures.
Battlefield Situations
The Phase Two model of the DRGS project is one level up of the Phase One, due to the fact that it can now become airborne and has the possibility of space travel. Using highly explosive/reactive concentrations of hydrogen fuel cells located within "boosters" in the feet and wings, the Phase Two vehicle is able to lift itself into the atmosphere.
However, before it is able to leave the atmosphere and enter space, it must be "coated" with a special liquid material known as Apothium. Apothium is a highly hot/cold resistant material, which can resist the heat that comes with leaving the atmosphere and also the harsh colds of outer space.
Specialty Systems
The Utopia network system is highly advanced, and is almost superior to the actual ICBM-guidance control system used in Witzgall. The infrastructure of the Phase Two vehicle is highly advanced as well, and is far superior to that of the Phase One model.
Apothium is also a special tool that was created during the modifcations of Phase One, and was such a great thing it was immediately put up for debate on whether or not it should go onto Phase Two. It won, and now comes with every Phase Two model. The amount it comes with is enough for 5 exit/re-entries (10 coats).
