History
This armor underwent several overhauls and was one of the longest models used.
James Rhodes replaced Stark as Iron Man for a considerable time using this armor. Happy Hogan, Eddie March, and Force also wore it on different occasions.
Notes
Some have argued that the various modifications (depolarization etc.) are different enough to be considered their own separate model.- ↑ Iron Man Vol 4 23

Capabilities
Armor structure was improved with 3D knitting. In addition, a forcefield helps keep the armor rigid.
The armor uses solar power and integrated microcircuitry. A thermocouple is used to handle extreme temperature and convert it to usable power, but it could be overloaded.
Repulsors were standard weaponry. The variobeam/uni-beam was capable of various effects. A tractor beam could be used to pull or tow objects. The most recent version of the armor is able to use pulse bolts. [1]
Gyro-stabilizers were used in the boot jets.
Power pods were capable of various functions such as boosting other systems or being set to detonate.
ECM jamming was used to evade detection.
A hologram emitter created multiple images to make the armor harder to target.
In addition to the sonic emitter, a voice distorter helped protect Stark's identity and could also be used to duplicate sounds.
The armor could travel subterraneanly.
Freon could be emitted and a built-in fire extinguisher handled internal and external fire.
Finger lasers and a "sabresaw" were available for cutting through objects.
Life support was improved; the pacemaker was no longer needed after successful heart surgery.
A slave circuit was added to control older suits after the incident with Weasel Willis. However, this was a weakness when Midas attempted to gain control of the armors.
Sensors were upgraded with a full-band transceiver, infrared, and a 'life detector' that was keyed to several important personnel.
