The Ke-M4-2 “Sylph II” Light Mecha is light combat mecha intended for use by Mini-Neko personnel in the Star Army of Yamatai. Designed by Mazaki Seina and Kage Yaichiro in early YE 42, Ketsurui Fleet Yards began experimental production of the Sylph II later that year, with full deployment and production slated to begin by the beginning of YE 42.

Explain the power armor more fully with an explanation as to why the power armor is used.

The Ke-M4-2 “Sylph II” Light Mecha is a truly modern and state-of-the-art light mecha that builds upon the advanced technologies utilized in the Ke-M2-4 Series "Mindy" Armor while utilizing the additional space afforded by having a Mini-Neko pilot to significantly augment the suit's capabilities, survivability, and utility beyond that of virtually all KFY power armors that came before it. Built around an ejectable type_42_mini-pilot_pod that is located in the head of the mecha's frame, the Sylph II features a more robust and efficient aether capacitor system that can provide stronger bursts of energy during intensive operations. It can

Designed as a successor to the reliable, yet aging Sylph M4 Light Mecha, the Ke-M4 “Sylph II” Light Mecha was conceived to address the urgent need for a state-of-the-art light mecha platform for Mini-Neko soldiers in the Star Army, especially in light of the ongoing Kuvexian War. Utilizing her experience and technical expertise in maintaining androids and automata, Mazaki Seina designed the initial concept of the Sylph II before submitting it to Ketsurui Zaibatsu for review. From there, the Sylph II underwent extensive testing and analysis, during which Seina and Kage Yaichiro worked to refine the mecha as feedback and data was processed from the initial trials. During this stage, various technologies from Project THOUGHT were integrated into the armor, including Simplified Joints and the Crystalline Audio Sensor Array. By the third month of YE 42, experimental variants of the Sylph II were distributed to select Mini-Neko personnel in the Star Army, with full production planned to initiate by the end of the year.

This system takes advantage of the inherent ability of the Combined Field System to utilize spatial distortion to connect to the Aether and to discharge a condensed beam of energy towards a designated target. The discharge point can come from any location on the field, although it takes large quantities of energy away from the propulsion and shielding systems. The energy draw increases as more beams are deployed or as the diameter of a single beam is increased.

• Location: Integrated Combined Field System (From any point along the surface of the armor)
• Purpose: Tier 2/3/4 | Medium/Heavy Anti-Personnel/Light Anti-Armor
• Secondary Purpose: Debris Deflection and Countermeasures
• Area of Effect: .035 to .125 meters in diameter¹
• Range: Theoretically unlimited except by the beam's speed (just under 1c)
• Rate of Fire: Up to ten five-second blasts every 15 seconds

¹ The tier of the energy beam is dependent upon the chosen diameter of the beam. A beam diameter from .035 meters to .050 meters classifies as a medium anti-personnel weapon. A beam diameter from .050 meters to .080 meters classifies as a heavy anti-personnel weapon. A beam diameter from .080 meters to .125 meters classifies as a light anti-armor weapon.

The Ke-M4-2 “Sylph II” Light Mecha is compatible with Mindy hardpoint attachments and handheld weaponry. It can accept the following hardpoints:

• Shoulders (2 Hardpoints)
• Upper Legs (2 Hardpoints)
• Dorsal (1 Hardpoint)
• Waist (handheld weapons and grenades, 2 Hardpoints)
