Every component needed its own power system, so many power sources were required. Fortunately, there were four sets of alien armor, which was enough.
The Flight Device could be transplanted directly; the aliens' design was already flawless.
The power-assist system, mechanical skeleton, and hydraulic transmission system could all be copied.
As for the intelligent control center and communications system, of course it would be Xiao Xin. She was no weaker than Jarvis, and she was absolutely one of their own, making her even more considerate.
The life-support system was somewhat troublesome. It needed to let the Iron Suit fly through the skies and dive into the sea, prevent oxygen deprivation and freezing, shield against radiation, and so on. It even had to allow survival in space. This was what Jiang Hao and Ed had spent the most time considering.
As for the defense system, the shell would use Adamantium Alloy, the hardest known metal in this world. There was no such thing as better, only best. Adamantium Alloy could defend against both physical and energy attacks, making it the perfect choice for super armor.
To be honest, Ed was heartbroken that Jiang Hao wanted to use all the Adamantium Alloy to make the shell. The main reason was that it was fucking expensive.
The flight system used a multi-nozzle design. The main thrust came from the soles of the feet, while other parts of the body had more than a dozen small nozzles, allowing for more flexible turns and extra speed when necessary.
For long-duration, long-distance, high-power flight, Jiang Hao also planned to dismantle the Alien Airship's power system and make an external Personal Flight Device, making full use of available resources.
The weapons system was the priority. Both arms were fitted with Laser Guns, while the shoulders and thighs
