IB-C03: HAL 826

A mecha that appears in Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon and a Coral-powered C-weapon developed by the Rubicon Research Institute.

While it is part of the Ibis Series, HAL 826 is the only one compatible with other AC parts among them and the only known C-weapon intended with manned use.

As an AC, it can be classified as a semi-heavyweight bipedal model. It comes equipped with entirely Coral-based weaponry, each being rifle, blade, missile and shield.

Its design elements pay homage to various iconic ACs from previous series. Its head's overall shape is reminiscent of Nine-Ball and Vixen, where core and leg parts look similar to that of White Glint. Its default color scheme also seems to be inspired by Nine-Ball as well.

It is piloted by Handler Walter.
