While notably more fragile then other mechs Subveters come with paracausal electromagnetic powers that grant them two different abilities: The first is the ability to drain energy away from enemy shields removing a degree of protection; the other is the ability to move at the speed of light for a short burst allowing for what looks like teleportation. Both these abilities working in tandem make the subverters extermely deadly sniping platforms and are often armed with scout rifles, sniper rifles, or sidearms like pistols. |

It uses nanomachines to generate magnetic containment fields that shape the plasma into either pulse or beams. When fired the plasma is discharged out the barrel via electromagetic coils, within the barrel is a colony of self replicating nanomachines, a colony of which breaks of, contains the plasma, and then travels with it at relativistic speeds forming either a sphere to create pulses or a funnel to create beams.

Phase weaponry uses dimensional phasing technology to cause the projectile in question to fall out of phase with reality when it detects shielding allowing it to bypass shield and then strike directly at the target.

The military forces of the UPD are rather unconventional to say the least with all soldiers being mech pilots controlling mechs supported by drone infantry and pilot transport gunships. The mechs of the UPD are balanced machines built with pilot survivability and are known for being highly customizable. Pilots have a large catalog of weapons and ability programs to select from to built their mech to their specifications and preferred fighting style. As a result no persan mech is ever the same and pilots tend to group themselves into fireteams based on personal synergy with commanding officers staying in the back ground and coordinating multiple teams over missions. All persan mechs are controlled by persa meaning that all wield power over an element of liminal energy.
In terms of general strategy though the Persan combat philosophy of rapid maneuverability and operational flexibility. With mechs able to fulfill a vast number of different roles, drone support, and orbital strikes complimenting each other to employ shock and disruption to decapitate the enemy's decision-making capabilities in maneuver warfare. To this end the UPD eschews vast numbers and attrition in favor of smaller, more tightly knit, better equipped and trained forces with strong logistical independence and a highly decentralized command structure with lower level officers given great flexibility in accomplishing the end goals of the higher ranking officers grand strategies.

Self Repair Systems
Nanites find their way into everything the Persan do in one way or another. Colonies of these nanites infest the weapon, defensive, and other systems in all military hardware the Persan posses. These nanites remain ever vigilant monitoring the hardware for potential points of failure and dedicating repairs to prevent these failures before they occur. Should failure occur then ninites devout their resources to repairing and replacing parts to keep their hardware functioning.
Multi-Pass Shields
Atomic Lattice Armor
Persan skill and nanotechnology and nanoengineering has benefited them in many ways, especially in the areas of armor and defensive technology. The primary form of armor of the UPD forces is atomic lattice armor. This armor is made up of graphene sheets that have had their atomic lattice structures interwoven to create a nanomolecular form of chainmail, the gaps in the crystal lattice structures are filled in with a liquid suspension, and the outer layer is given extra protection in a layer of diamond micro-crystals.
