An Earth Mover.

An Earth Mover is a gigantic machine produced by Stark International. It uses a laser excavation system that Tony Stark designed to aid archaeology and disaster relief.

History[]

In Iron, Forged in Fire Part 1, the Earth Movers are used for an archaeological dig to uncover information on the Makluan Rings. Howard Stark rejects Obadiah Stane's plans to weaponize the Earth Movers because it isn't a company that destroys lives. After the plane crash, however, Stane goes forward with his plan to modify the Earth Movers and sell them to the military in Iron, Forged in Fire Part 2. Stane demonstrates the three Earth Movers to potential buyers, and when Iron Man arrives to put a stop to the demonstration, Obadiah tests the new weapons systems of the modified Earth Movers on him. Iron Man realizes during the fight that the laser arrays are going to overload and have the potential to cause catastrophic destruction if they aren't shut down in time. He overpowers and disables the first Earth Mover, then flies into the power core of the second one and uses the armor to absorb the excess energy. This nearly overwhelms his own systems, until he redirects the energy into a powerful unibeam that destroys the final Earth Mover.

In Ancient History 101, a couple of Earth Movers are seen in Howard Stark's flashback.

Functions[]

The first Earth Movers had powerful lasers on the base, which are used only for tunneling into the ground for archaeological or disaster relief purposes.

After Obadiah Stane modified the Earth Movers, the laser cannons were mounted in the center and could burn through concrete walls and destroy tanks in seconds. They also had four extra laser cannons close to the top and Gatling lasers on the sides of the top of the machine.
