The HAVWC from Flag would be my guess, since it's just a tank variant for all intents.

Elder God Demonbane is broken out the ass, it's just that the one we see for almost the entire vn is Deus Machina Demonbane.

SRW says yes, although apparently special adjustments are required. Though that doesn't make any sense, because if you're going to outfit Boss Borot for space travel, just make a robot that isn't made out of bullshit, like Ginguiser.

I wouldn't quite call railgun shots to be small arms fire either. The railgun's for more than just shooting nukes, you know.

Ocelot didn't even want Snake dead.

Rising RAYs are pretty okay as far as firepower goes, all things considered. Giant heat swords, fuckton of missiles, giant laser beam, not to mention it's agile as shit. It could actually beat any OYW machine.
>>
>>13606291
Well yes, REX is damn near indestructible.

But RAYs are pretty much useless as anything except mobile nuke launchers. The fact that they could be beaten by decade-old designs that they were designed to destroy shows that more than enough.

Hell, Raiden took out anywhere from 3 to 20 of them with what's basically an RPG.
>>
>>13606319
RAY doesn't even launch nukes.
And, to be fair, REX is the pinnacle of metal gears. RAY was made to counter REX knockoffs with way worse specs via sheer numbers.

They're not canon.
RAXAS is from Portable Ops right? Probably not all that great. i don't remember how good the Sahelanwhatever from V is.
EXCELSUS could probably wreck every metal gear, but then again, it's a metal gear in name only.

Excelsus is a piece of shit canonically. Even Rex could make circles around it and fuck it up.
>>
>>13606414
Sahelanthropus is in theory solid as fuck and combines a lot of good tech into a reasonably threatening vertical tank of sorts.

Problem is that due to the sheer bulk of 80's computer technology there's not enough room for a pilot (and Skullface doesn't want an AI doing incredibly boneheaded things either), and the workaround that results in the Sahelanthropus fought in-game is literally using a psychic child as an interface between any sufficiently pissed off person and Sahelanthropus, controlling the mech like a marionette.

TL/DR: shit don't actually work, Emmerich can combine disparate technologies like you wouldn't believe but he can't make smaller computers and no one wants smaller pilots.

As for RAXA, it's nothing more than the prototype of what amounts to a walking MIRV. It's junk, in fact much like Sahelanthropus it's junk that's enhanced by psychic bullshit.

Just that even without the psychic bullshit RAXA is super junk sorta like Shagohod, whereas Sahelanthropus is cut from the same 80's sci fi cloth as Peace Walker but runs afoul of the limitations of the time, hence the junk status.

RAY isn't an actual Metal Gear - it lacks nuclear armaments. It's an anti-Metal Gear weapon, the name "Metal Gear RAY" is more for merchandising's sake.

Besides, the big threat of a Metal Gear isn't being a big fucking robot, it's that they're portable nuke launchers that can defend themselves against infantry aside from certain outliers like Big Boss, Solid Snake, Grey Fox, and Raiden.

gooooooo
>>
>>13608239
They fucking say this in the game.
>>
>>13608241
They also sell Metal Gear as
"THE MISSING LINK BETWEEN INFANTRY AND ARTILLERY"


The whole "RAY isn't a real Metal Gear" bit is the biggest bullshit bit of logic MGS4 dumps on the player.

Mostly because they never make a distinction between Gears until implicitly in TPP where you have all these different Gear class weapons, thus being able to compromise between Granin's vision of a flexible legged weapon and the actual meme of the Metal Gear being a nuclear artillery piece.
>>
>>13608253
>The whole "RAY isn't a real Metal Gear" bit is the biggest bullshit bit of logic MGS4 dumps on the player.

No, I'm talking about Metal Gear Solid 2.

Otacon flat out says it is not an actual Metal Gear because it lacks a nuclear arsenal. It uses the name Metal Gear to gain popularity, and in reality it is an "Anti-Metal Gear" - it's designed as a hard counter to the relatively slow, but heavily armored Metal Gear REX rip-offs by being highly mobile and easily mass produced.
>>
>>13608262
The point still stands, it smacks of bullshit mental gymnastics to force the point that only nuke punters are Metal Gears.

Especially when MGS3 reveals the origin of the term, not to mention the principle architect of the entire weapon concept.

Doesn't Big Boss One of them at least at one point pull a suitless Gray-Fox "Leg Lift" on either Zeke or Sahalanthropus? I can't remember which game I am remember it from.

Either way, Mantis got a MAJOR powerboost for that game.

Yet the original source material is retconned in the very next game with a new definition from Granin.
