History
The Raiden is a prototype of the powered exoskeleton developed by the Ground Self-Defense Force of Japan.

This state-of-the-art weapon was developed based on the concept of a new generation of infantry with the armor and firepower to compete with tanks and helicopters, resistance to polar regions, and the mobility to operate over long distances and for long periods of time.

As development progressed in advanced nations due to the rising cost of human life, this powered exoskeleton was put to practical use after the UFS' "Alexander".

The Alexander's craft has been used in many technologies, and it has been called the Japanese Alexander.

Powers/Abilities

 * The front's vital areas are covered with a composite armor similar to that of a Type 20 tank, and it can be driven for 72 hours without refueling.
 * Armed with a 12.7mm heavy machine gun, an anti-tank grenade launcher, and a reinforced alloy blade for close combat.
 * Like the Alexander, the drive and transmission systems are said to use hell technology, unlike the powered exoskeletons of other advanced nations, allowing for agile movement and a drive that can even enhance the passenger's senses.
