Mark I Construction Drone

Created for the sole purposes of speeding up construction at shipyards and constructing orbital facilities, the Mark I is the first actually space capable drone due to the recent creation of the Kesslinger Intelligent Operating System.

• Uses the DVIM system of the KIOS
• Cheaply and Quickly built to replace any losses.

• Construction in harsh, Zero-G environments.

With the creation of the Kesslinger Intelligent Operating System, Kaiserlich F&E could finally create a more advanced series of androids and robots. Their first objective was solving the problem of space construction without a shipyard. Space was the most dangerous environment around for construction workers with as many as 100 dying each year when a construction project was going on. Because of this, the Abwehran people had only been constructing huge pieces of stations at shipyards and then towing them into place. Such methods were decidedly more expensive than other methods due to the distance between the shipyards and other locations in Jaspis. This method was also impossible to use in other systems because of the lack of shipyards in the new colonies.

With design plans for a new mobile constructor ship in the works that was calling for millions of spacers, Kaiserlich F&E decided that the Mark One Construction Drone series would be the best method of improving both the design of the ship and safety of construction workers in space.

The Mark One Construction Drone uses a standard titanium hull structure with a civilian-based frame.

Using a CU-23 computer system in conjunction with a KIOS's Drone Virtual Intelligence Model (DVIM), the Mark One is controlled from a hive minded Program-based Artificial Intelligence Model (PAIM) of either a Shipyard or space vessel.

The Mark One runs on a single Civilian Fusion Engine.

A magnetic grip used to grab metallic components and move them through out a construction site. This device is located on the drone's right arm.

A tool attached to the drone's left arm, the molecular wielder is a tool used to perform molecular wielding in order to connect pieces together.
