Recently today, the MA03 "Grypsios" Infantry Powered Armor had its first declassified demonstration. The powered armor was shown publicly at Solchane Air Force Base, where is performed a number of trials and demonstrative exhibitions of its combat abilities. The basic exhibitions varied from displays of the Powered Armor's enhanced strength, as was shown lifting an automobile off of the ground with serious effort, to demonstrations of the armor's durability, in which a .50 caliber machine gun fired one hundred rounds at near point-blank range into the armor, with the armor suffering negligible damage.

The climax of the demonstration came at its end, in which three remote-controlled T-72s, main battle tanks which have seen employ across the world, were driven across the airfield. A Grypsios unit was mobilized, armed with a fairly large gun mounted on its back, revealed as a 47mm autocannon. The operator walked the Powered Armor onto an "X" painted into the grass, which was approximately 6 feet in diameter. The Grypsios unit suddenly rocketed into the sky, assisted by a cluster of thrusters mounted to its back. It unit opened fire from directly above, destroying the first two tanks in a volley of cannonfire. Its flight terminated directly onto the turret of the third T-72, visibly denting the turret armor. The Grypsios unit aimed directly down and fired three shots into the top of the tank, rocketing away before the tank exploded in a shower of flames. The hovering Powered Armor unit made a slow pass over the audience, descending to only 15 feet above their heads. Finally, it landed directly within the "X", in the same place where it landed, to a roar of enthusiastic cheers applause, with many chanting "Serekus Erat Sonna," the national motto.

At this time, all statistics of the Grypsios Infantry Powered Armor are classified, but the obvious has been demonstrated: the Powered Armor amplifies the wearer's strength, allows him to survive in a deadly battlefield, is equipped with a Jump Jet unit, and has the capability to mount powerful weaponry, as well as other surprises that we can be sure are built into the Grypsios Infantry Powered Armor. It is obvious that the Grypsios will revolutionize the way that Mossat will fight its wars.

OOC: i.e., what time is it in?
PT = Past Time. Catapults and shit.
MT = Modern Time. Basically, any weapons usable by today's standards.
PMT = Post Modern Time. A little bit off today, but not by too much.
FT = Future Time.

OOC: It's not intended to be like a suit of MJOLNIR armor, but similar in design and idea to the VR-055 Devastator (link:http:www.xs4all.nl/~ptn/ArmorWeapon/CVR-3.html)
