Madox Units
The Madox units in the OVA, Madox 00 and Madox 01, are highly advanced machines constructed by the Self Defense Force near Shinjuku; the military term used for the Madox units are "Slave Troopers".
The Madox-00 is armed with a rifle that fires large caliber rounds, a spear in the left hand, and a grapple claw located in the pelvis.
The Madox-01 is equipped with built in chainsaw located in the left & right shoulder binder, a claw hand on the right arm, and by default a laser guided mini-gun mounted on the right arm. During the demo against remote tanks the Madox-01's mini gun is removed and armed with a twin anti-tank rocket system and wing mounted mini missile launchers. The Madox-01 has a large array of addition weapons and is deployable from a Blackhawk Helicopter.
A Madox-02 was referred to by Ellie, although it was said to be in maintenance and is never shown.

Famous quotes containing the words madox and/or units:
“And then I ran to get away,
But when I stopped and turned to see,
The tree was bending to the side
And leaning out to look at me.”
—Elizabeth Madox Roberts (1880–1941)
“Even in harmonious families there is this double life: the group life, which is the one we can observe in our neighbour’s household, and, underneath, another—secret and passionate and intense—which is the real life that stamps the faces and gives character to the voices of our friends. Always in his mind each member of these social units is escaping, running away, trying to break the net which circumstances and his own affections have woven about him.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
