The '''A-Type''' is designed for active duty combat and is fit with one general-purpose machine gun on its right arm capable of firing 7.62×51mm rounds in ball, tracer and rubber variants. Its left arm is weaponless but features what is called a ''Ligintum Divus'' (The Hand of God), or simply referred to as God's Hand.

Its left arm is weaponless but features God's Hand, allowing it to serve in a wide range of environments and applications.


The '''B-Type''' machine is designed for heavy combat and features two 7.62×51mm general-purpose machine guns, foregoing God's Hand. The B-Type also has reinforced steel plates in key vulnerable areas and has an upgraded targeting system.

The '''C-Type''' machine is also known as ''Scout-C'' due to its streamlined design and lack of offensive weapons. It has God's Hands on both of its arms and the head region has been stripped of the missile housing, instead containing a large, loudspeaker flanked by a pair of flashing sirens on its shoulder. While it does not have autonomous communicative abilities, it is able to project the voice from its Command Tower and utilize its onboard cameras and sensors in real time. In some of the more prominent cities of Caphiria and around the world, the C-Type machine has been deployed in the local police force and has proven to be extremely effective.

==== God's Hand ====
One of the most important innovations in the field of robotics is what is called a ''Ligintum Divus'' (The Hand of God), or simply referred to as God's Hand.  It is a myoelectric, multi-articulating prosthetic hand with five individually powered digits offers electrically rotating thumb with manual override. With 20 actuated degrees of freedom, absolute position and force sensors, and ultra sensitive touch sensors on the fingertips, The Hand of God provides unique capabilities for problems that require the closest approximation. God's Hand also has additional 4 under-actuated movements for a total of 24 joints. Each joint has a movement range again the same as or very close to that of a human hand, including the thumb and even the flex of the palm for the little finger. With 129 sensors in total, The Hand of God provides detailed telemetry, which can be exploited to generate innovative manipulation control systems or to provide detailed understanding of the external environment. As well as absolute position sensing for each joint, God's Hand includes force sensing for each actuator, tactile sensing on fingertips, temperature and motor current and voltage sensing. All of this data is made available to the Command Tower from 100Hz and up to 1kHz via a high bandwidth EtherCAT interface. Supporting this high frequency for data is the fast movement of the hand – from open to closed in 0.3 seconds. It also features four custom AGM-176 Griffin missiles in place of a "head", designed for precision low-collateral damage. Directly below this, however, are the multitude of sensors and cameras that allow the MPDU to have some autonomy.
