History

While he intended the armor to be used by James Rhodes, Stark ended up donning it himself to gain revenge against Obadiah Stane. The armor prevailed against the Iron Monger's armor and Stark kept the design for many months.

It was used extensively against other armor users during the first Armor Wars until being destroyed with one of Firepower's powerful heat-seeking missles.

A replica of the armor was later used by Mike O'Brien to face Ultimo.

The armor's shoulderpads and camouflage effect were incorporated into the design for the updated Stealth Armor.

When Tony Stark undertook Stark Resilient, he dismantled and melted one version of this armor.

Notes

This suit of armor was known as the Silver Centurion Armor.

Capabilities

Flight was improved with new turbines for the boot jets. A separate booster pack could also be used.

Individual armor parts stored a small emergency charge.

Repulsors and the uni-beam were enhanced. Pulse bolts gained energy as they traveled up to a certain point.

Other weapons included a heat lance, cutting lasers, an electric shock, variator rays, and a tractor beam.

A disruptor field was used against electrical systems. The sonic distorter could also be to disrupt opponents.

Freon streams handled fire.

A 'six-second' force-field greatly enhanced protection for a short time, but consumed considerable power.

Refractory coating blunted lasers and other energy attacks.

An absorption grid could be used to absorb energy from various sources.

Life support equipment was considerably enhanced: recycled air, water and nutrients could last an indefinite amount of time.

The "chameleon effect" generated a hologram to make the armor blend in with its surroundings. Due to harmful interference with his nervous system, Stark limited its use.
