Siren Echo

This is my take on a jaeger robot that my wife & I would pilot together; it's inspired by the mechs from the "Pacific Rim" films.

The name is a reference to the ocean, a place where we both grew up (albeit on different coasts). This robot is built primarily for reconnaissance, patrolling rural coasts & sounding the alarm of incoming kaiju attacks.

Siren Echo armaments include the following:
- Reinforced "dredger arm"
- Electro-shock trident, with deployable probes that can lock on to a kaiju body's structural resonance
- Back-mounted sonic blast cannon
- A trio of "eyes" that double as pilot viewports & pulsating signal lights, useful in luring kaiju away from civilians
- Mist generators, for providing temporary cloud cover & reducing thermal signature
- Legs that can magnetize together into a tail-like apparatus, for improved submerged mobility
