Description/Overview:
          The last of the long line of exosuits/armors that dominated the urban battlefields of the 2020s to 2040s time period, the USMC-EA-45 was the pinnacle of exo-armor development. Originally built by the USA prior to the Great War, the USMC-EA-45 Paladin was later produced by the USNA and USSN for use as a tank support and space-assault vehicle. It was the inspiration for the MBR-01 later built by the EFR. Many of these units survived the Great War and were used by both the USSN and EFR during the 2060s. The EFR used the Paladin as a defense unit for their lunar and planetoid bases. This exo-armor was put back into mass production during the early years of the 1st Interplanetary War by the Earth Federal Forces to bolster their spacemarine units.
