Technical and Historical Data:
Based on the original AR-44 GM, Hermosa Tech revisits the design which helps design the later developed AR-44-2 Neo GM. As an immediate note, the entire design remains fundamentally the same with the very body shape and frame retaining the GM's original form. However, the entire body is built entirely out of Neo-Titanium where's the original was made from Lunar Steel Alloy at the time. The main body is very durable and capable of defending against ballistic attacks fairly well. Even anti-tank weapons need a second shot to fully disable the Neo GM in certain spots, making it very popular for something so new at the time of its deployment. The entire backpack also receives a new design featuring higher powered engines for high mobility flight through space, though it seems the Neo GM lacks the same maneuverable agility as the original GM.
A major noticeable difference between the new model Neo GM is the fact it is a high mobility machine with fire support type capabilities rather than general use. As the standard, it is equipped with the basic Vulcan Guns for use against Infantry and Vehicles and of course, point defense. With melee and close range, it mounts a pair of beam sabers or even a pair of Telescopic Sabers to deal with opponents from close up. The main armament though consists of a number of different missile launcher types from the 2-Tube Large Missile Pods to the 4-Tube Shoulder mounted Missile Pods. Should the pilot of a Neo GM need to acquire new weapons out in the field, the Neo GM is also backwards compatible with the weapons from the AR-45 Nemo and old AR-44 GM.
