Chapter 169: Showcase
Master Smith Under Ministry of National Defense
169 – Showcase
What astonished the trainees even more was that Masamune High-Tech wasn’t the only company presenting at today’s showcase. As soon as the impressive presentation by CEO Kato Daichi concluded, another individual took the stage to introduce their company’s power armor in a similar fashion.
ArmsTech, a military-industrial complex formed by the collaboration of Lockheed Martin, the world’s largest defense contractor, and Northrop Grumman, the fourth largest, introduced their new power armor, ‘Titan.’ Additionally, Hanwha Defense and Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) from South Korea presented their power armor, ‘Army Tiger Mk-1.’
Germany’s defense companies also joined forces to create ‘Zukunftspanzerung Tech,’ unveiling their new armor series, ‘Jäger,’ which further heightened the excitement in the auditorium.
“The design of the Jäger series is rugged but practical. I like the more military feel compared to other products.”
“I’m curious about its performance when worn.”
Not all participating companies brought results that dazzled the trainees. Some power armors from countries with relatively less advanced defense technology were so crude that they seemed to have applied only the basic design released by the Liberal Clan.
Some countries even showcased power armors with external protective armor made from thick titanium alloys instead of monster materials.
