KX939 Supreme Battle Armor.
This was the largest battlesuit the T'au Empire could currently produce, a crystallization of technology, a beast of the battlefield.
The original blueprints in the Earth Caste research institute had been for the KX139 Supreme Armor. After Shadowsun and Farsight reviewed them, they ordered the KX139 Supreme Armor's size and weight increased across the board.
The KX139 Supreme Armor was roughly the size of a Warhound Titan, while the KX939 Supreme Armor was nearly comparable to a Warlord Titan.
Such an immensely heavy battlesuit was an outrageous challenge for the T'au Empire's researchers. The many technical problems during production made Earth Caste technicians declare it impossible time and again.
They carefully chose their words when speaking to Shadowsun and Farsight, explaining that such massive machinery was unsuited to the T'au Empire's emphasis on fast mobile warfare.
Shadowsun and Farsight shook their heads. They had not researched the KX939 Supreme Battle Armor for mobile warfare. In a war against the swarm, they had neither the space nor the opportunity for mobile warfare. If even the heavy iron hammer of a frontal assault shattered beneath the bugs' claws and fangs, then the long needle used for harassment became laughably childish.
They had to thank Oedmeir for taking time out of her busy schedule to visit the T'au Empire. This serious workaholic had casually solved the radiation problem of plasma rifles, the instability of the T'au Empire's Warp engines, and every technical problem of the KX939 Supreme Armor.
"Observe more, think more, learn more. If you truly don't understand something, send someone to ask me." Oedmeir tossed down several books and left without a trace of reluctance.
From then on, the T'au Empire's research direction became incomparably clear. Every research institute and central factory diligently studied the books Oedmeir
