XII. EXTREMIS ARMOR (cont'd)
SPEED
The main trait in which the Extremis armor outclassed all previous models was pure speed. When battling the Pentagon armor, the Extremis enhancile took him apart methodically not just because he was stronger, but because he was also as fast as a low level speedster. Once Extremis became a part of Stark though, he was now just as fast. From Iron Man vol.4 #6:

They're hand-to-hand combat agility was a near-blur:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...emisSpeed02.jpg
The Iron Man's operational speed had almost always been limited by by his own mind. However, the Extremis armor's motor functions operated in fractions of seconds. "The armor adjusts to the explosion. .004 seconds. . . . I charged a magnetic pulse into the elbow of my arm. .002 seconds." From Iron Man vol.4 #7:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...peed03IMv47.jpg
(please log in to view the image)
Which isn't all that impressive when it is revealed that his mind had been altered by the Extremis armor and functioned at a speed measured by the picosecond. In other words, while the Extremis armor was physically a low level speedster, his mind operated at full superspeeds. From Iron Man vol.4 #31:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...eed09IMv431.jpg
In terms of flying speed, mach-3 is no issue for him in Iron Man vol.4 #8:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...peed04IMv48.jpg
(please log in to view the image)
Neither is mach 8.7 in Iron Man vol.4 #9:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...peed05IMv49.jpg
Even a superspeedster like Sentry remarks, "Damn, he's fast..." From Iron Man vol.4 #10:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...eed06IMv410.jpg
In the space of panels, the Extremis armor speeds Sentry away and past the Earth's horizon in New Avengers #19:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...wAvengers19.jpg
When you put all that together, you get scenes like this: here, an unarmored Tony Stark has a repulsor bomb blow up right next to him but before the heat can even reach him, his undersheath covers his body and his armor (which was in the other room!) flies over and assembles itself fast enough for him to fly out of the heart of the explosion. From Invincible Iron Man #3:

http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...he-Hulkv218.jpg
Not exactly designed for close combat, but the Extremis suit had a wrist-mounted interface knife that was good enough to put down an amped Bloodscream in Iron Man: Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. Annual #1:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...MDoSAnnual1.jpg
FORCE-FIELDS
(please log in to view the image)
The Extremis armor used force-fields as well as the Pentagon armor and then some. He could emit full globular force-fields that were generated by "zero point energy." From Iron Man: The Inevitable #1, Mighty Avengers #8, New Avengers: Illuminati #5, Captain Marvel #3:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...Inevitable4.jpg

OTHER ABILITIES
(please log in to view the image)
As briefly mentioned before, the Extremis virus transformed Tony Stark's body into a biotech physiology. His internal organs were forever modified and redesigned by the virus to enhance the synergy between him and his armor. From Invincible Iron Man #21:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...iologyIIM21.jpg
For example, the autonomous assembly function of the Extremis armor used Tony's own bones to store the undersheath of the suit which was wired directly into his brain. From Iron Man vol.4 #5:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...torageIMv45.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...moteControl.jpg
The Extremis virus gifted Stark with a substantial healing factor. When his internal organs were damaged in his first fight with the Extremis enhancile, he just grew new ones. He could even make a full recovery after 37 minutes of brain death. From Iron Man vol.4 #5, 12:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...alingFactor.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...actorIMv412.jpg
He'd grow back severed pieces of his body like his heel. From Iron Man vol.4 #28:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...actorIMv428.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...alingFactor.jpg
(please log in to view the image)
Not just that, but when Ultron completely transformed his body into a liquid metal Ultron form... his healing factor transformed him back and took care of a series of aneurysms and an acute myocardial infarction. From Mighty Avengers #6:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...tyAvengers6.jpg
The healing factor gave him "a complete immunity to cancer... at least in theory." A theory that was proven when he became infected with an Extremis biotech cancer that assimilated the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier and its crew. Not only did his healing factor reform his body from the assimilation, it also destroyed the Extremis biotech cancer by curing it throughout the Helicarrier. From Iron Man vol.4 #18:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...actorIMv418.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...alingFactor.jpg
The Extremis armor also imbued him with technopathy. He could see through satellites, speak through cell phones, and listen through the global internet. From Iron Man vol.4 #5:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...Technopathy.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...king01IMv45.jpg
(please log in to view the image)
The scale of his technopathy was incredibly precise. Here, a deactivated Extremis armor suit without even reserve power has its individual circuits controlled down to the 1s and 0s. From Iron Man vol.4 #31:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...pathyIMv431.jpg
Naturally, his technopathy permitted him to remote control the suit from a distance. From Iron Man: The Inevitable #2 and Iron Man vol.4 #11:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...Inevitable2.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ntrolIMv411.jpg
Or... his entire arsenal of Iron Man suits... simultaneously. From New Avengers Annual #1 and Invincible Iron Man #6:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...gersAnnual1.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...moteControl.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ControlIIM6.jpg
The Extremis armor even came with full-blown spider-sense and the ability to manipulate it in others. "I isolated its frequency and created a neural net that replicates [Spider-Man's] pheromone-based defenses. Not only was I able to create my own 'spider-sense' but I can neutralize your's completely... or transmit false positives." From Iron Man vol.4 #14:

OTHER ABILITIES
His newfound technopathy considerably increased his hacking abilities. Spymaster even comments, "Not bad, Stark! I've had entire terrorist nations trying to crack those cpu codes." From Iron Man: The Inevitable #6:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...Inevitable6.jpg
He could access North Korean air defense systems to remotely eject their fighter jet pilots, override missile targeting systems and access nuclear power plant facilities. From Iron Man vol.4 #18, 28 and New Avengers: Illuminati #5:

He could engage hacked satellite mainframes, rewrite their code, reroute them and provide anti-viruses simultaneously. Later, he calls on them to fire down on Hulk and Sentry. From World War Hulk #1 and 5:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...cking07WWH1.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...cking09WWH5.jpg
His hacking was good enough to shut down Black Panther's Wakandan tech and hack Cloc, Sentry's robotic assistant designed by Reed Richards. From Iron Man vol.4 #11:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ing04IMv411.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ing05BPv322.jpg

XIII. HYPERVELOCITY ARMOR
At some point before attaining Extremis, Stark built a prototype suit called the Hypervelocity armor.
(please log in to view the image)
The Hypervelocity armor had several defining characteristics. First, it had the ability to upload Stark's consciousness into a digitized form should he be incapacitated. Second, the armor's processors benefited from a radical increase in computing power compared to armors prior to Extremis. Third, it possessed pure speed and maneuverability befitting its namesake.
STRENGTH
(please log in to view the image)
The Hypervelocity armor made use of extra knuckle plating for added striking power. From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #6:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity6.jpg
DURABILITY
The Hypervelocity armor could tank the blunt force of several mechs hammering him with "an average of 15.39 strikes per second." From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #6:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity6.jpg
The Hypervelocity armor had excellent resistance to piercing damage. Anti-aircraft fire doesn't put a dent in it. From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #1:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity1.jpg
Its resistance to energy-based weapons shines through here. Even though the Hypervelocity armor suit was exposed, laser and railgun batteries do not take it down. From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #5:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity5.jpg
The Hypervelocity armor was highly resistant to extreme temperatures. High-intensity fuel-air explosives engulf the Hypervelocity armor but don't slow it down. From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #5:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity5.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity6.jpg
SPEED
The Hypervelocity armor was the fastest suit in terms of flying speed. Here he literally catches "a missile traveling twice as fast as a rifle bullet" and then he boosts its speed further with his own bootjets. From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #2:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...citySpeed04.jpg
(please log in to view the image)
It wasn't just pure flying speed that the Hypervelocity armor excelled in. It was its maneuverability as well. Here, at supersonic speeds, he makes turns at impossible angles, "[c]ompletely redirecting its trajectory at random -- over five times per second -- pulling G forces that would've pulped the organic Tony Stark's brain..." From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #1 and 5:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity1.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...citySpeed02.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity5.jpg
The suit's "electronic analog of a nervous system is capable of far greater reflex speeds than" he was capable of in a traditional suit. From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #2:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity2.jpg
Here, he catches a railgun bullet between his fingers underwater. From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #4:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity4.jpg
(please log in to view the image)
But it was its processing speed that made it even more formidable. The Hypervelocity armor upgraded itself to break the human-level cognitive clockspeed barrier so that it "thinks, reacts and kills ten or fifty or a hundred times as fast as an organic human. . . . To put it in cape terms: Imagine the Hulk moving too fast to see, like that Quicksilver Euro-pansy." From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #3:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity3.jpg

XIII. HYPERVELOCITY ARMOR (cont'd)
ARMOR ABILITIES
The Hypervelocity armor used non-traditional force-fields in the form of "impact-triggered hyper-rigidification field-generating cells." From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #2:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity2.jpg
The scanners were so advanced it could analyze a rail-gun bullet hole in its armor and backtrace "the round's precise velocity, caliber and composition" to the exact make and model of the rail-gun. From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #3:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity3.jpg
(please log in to view the image)
The Hypervelocity armor's greater processing power allowed for potent hacking. In the space of only 7/10ths of a second, the Hypervelocity armor wirelessly cracks the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier's tactical intranet security after 105 attempts. From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #6:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...tyHacking04.jpg
He can override a missile's guidance controls, counter-hack an intrusive virus program and take over enemy mechs. in Iron Man: Hypervelocity #2 and 5-6:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity2.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity5.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity6.jpg
(please log in to view the image)
The Hypervelocity armor also had a cloaking ability with its chameleonware. From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #1:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity1.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity3.jpg
The Hypervelocity was also capable of supercavitation -- a process that surrounds an object with vapor bubbles greatly reducing friction drag underwater -- that permitted it to travel up to near-supersonic speeds underwater. From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #2-4:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity2.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity3.jpg
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity4.jpg
Last but not least, the armor had pre-programmed fighting skills with "a vast arsenal of fighting moves." From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #2:
http://i388.photobucket.com/albums/...ervelocity2.jpg
ORIGIN
In the middle of testing his new Hypervelocity armor, Tony Stark was attacked and grievously injured. The Hypervelocity armor uploaded Tony Stark's consciousness to operate the armor. After seeing Stark to safety, the Hypervelocity armor began investigating who its attackers were, but not before the armor was flagged down and hunted by S.H.I.E.L.D., who had mistaken it for a rogue armor. In addition to all this, an advanced computer virus was attacking Tony 2.0's consciousness.
After wild chases and firefights, the Hypervelocity armor eventually evolved its processing speed well past the human cognitive clockspeed barrier to achieve super sentience, just in time for it to spend fractions of a second -- a lifetime to it -- to disrupt a nuclear warhead's critical mass and save the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier. From Iron Man: Hypervelocity #1-6:
