Little about the Jaegers and new techs

Five new Jaegers are going to be featured in the movie , What is a Jaeger? It’s you, x1000. The new Mark VI mech suits represent the pinnacle of human invention.

250-Foot Superhero Suit

Jaegers are powered by Humans. Driven by state-of-the-art Halograph technology, the 25-story tall Jaegers have never responded more precisely to human movement. With rapid real-time movements, a sleeker frame and high octane burst repulsors, the new generation of Jaegers act as a supercharged extension of your body. While velocity has increased, payload has not been sacrificed. Utilizing new lightweight reinforced steel armor plates, the next generation of Jaegers pack a punch powered by 30,000+ pounds of force. The new Jaegers feature the most advanced combat technology ever created: plasma blades, elbow rockets, and the formidable Gravity Sling, a weapon that turns everything into a weapon. The new and improved Dual Nuclear Vortex Turbines power Gipsy Avenger while generating enough energy per hour to power the city of Chicago for an entire year.

Five new Jaegers

GIPSY AVENGER honors the heroic legacy of her namesake as the flagship leader of the Mark VI fleet. More than just a Jaeger, she is a symbol of hope to millions.


BRACER PHOENIX A Mark V brute that can still run with the VI’s, Bracer Phoenix shoots from the chest, with a centrifugal vortex cannon that is as spectacular as it is deadly.

SABER ATHENA The sleekest and most elegant Jaeger ever created, Saber Athena is the fastest in the fleet, wielding twin blades in hyper-acrobatic combat.

TITAN REDEEMER Built for brute force and armed with a seismic morning star, Titan Redeemer is the walking wrecking ball of the new fleet.

GUARDIAN BRAVO Designed for combat at range, Guardian Bravo wields the Elec-16 Arc Whip: a proto-metallic successor to the chainsword, and brings a new sophistication to the chainsword’s whiplash move.

About Pacific Rim 2013


Story Line

In 2013, huge alien monsters called Kaijus emerge from an interdimensional portal called "The Breach" at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. Over the course of three years, the Kaiju wreak havoc upon coastal cities along the Ring of Fire, such as San Francisco, San José del Cabo, Sydney, Manila and Hong Kong. Humanity responds by constructing massive robotic machines called Jaegers, to combat the alien threat. Each Jaeger is piloted by two or more people, who are connected by a neural bridge in a process called "drifting" to share the mental stress of piloting the machine.

In 2020, Gipsy Danger, piloted by brothers Raleigh and Yancy Beckett, defends Anchorage from a Kaiju codenamed Knifehead. They both engage in combat, with Gipsy gaining the upper hand and defeating the Kaiju. Unbeknownst to them, the Kaiju is still alive. The Kaiju ambushes them, critically damages Gipsy and throws Yancy out of the cockpit, killing him. Raleigh manages to pilot Gipsy alone. He then activates the remaining plasma cannon, killing Knifehead. Traumatised by Yancy’s death, Raleigh quits the Jaeger Program. In 2025, the world governments decide to end funding for the continuous construction of Jaegers, in favor of building massive coastal walls, as the Kaijus are growing more powerful, their attacks more frequent and Jaegers are being destroyed faster than they are built. The remaining Jaegers are relocated to Hong Kong under the command of Marshal Stacker Pentecost, who plans to destroy The Breach using a nuclear weapon.

Pentecost tracks down Raleigh at a wall construction site to persuade him to rejoin the program. Traveling to the Hong Kong base, the Shatterdome, Raleigh is introduced to Mako Mori, director of the Jaeger restoration program and Pentecost’s adoptive daughter. Four Jaegers remain in operation – the refurbished Gipsy Danger, the Russian Cherno Alpha, the Chinese Crimson Typhoon, and the Australian Striker Eureka that will carry the bomb, and piloted by father and son Herc and Chuck Hansen.

To find a new co-pilot, Raleigh participates in tryouts, assuming Mako is "drift-compatible", despite Pentecost's protests. During their first test, Raleigh is distracted by the memory of Yancy’s death. Mako, in turn, is lost in the memory of the Kaiju attack on Tokyo that orphaned her, and nearly fires Gipsy's plasma cannon. Mako is promptly relieved of piloting duties, and Raleigh confronts Pentecost and tells him that he is being overprotective of her.

Pentecost consults Kaiju experts Newton Geiszler and Herman Gottlieb. Hermann claims that the Breach will stabilize and the Kaiju will increase in number, but it will allow the assault to succeed, while Newton suggests drifting with a Kaiju’s brain to learn more about them. Newton goes ahead with his plan despite Herman's protests and discovers that the Kaiju are bioweapons grown by alien colonists who plans on wiping out humanity. With Pentecost's permission, Newton searches for black market dealer Hannibal Chau to obtain a fresher Kaiju brain to drift with. However, he soon figures out that since drifting is a two-way link, the Kaiju hive mind gained access to his knowledge just as he did theirs. Soon after, two new Kaijus, Leatherback and Otachi, emerge simultaneously to find Newton.

All Jaegers except Gipsy Danger are dispatched to intervene. Otachi destroys Crimson Typhoon, while Leatherback destroys Cherno Alpha and paralyzes Striker Eureka with an EMP blast. Out of options, Pentecost reluctantly allows Mako and Raleigh to pilot Gipsy Danger. Gipsy successfully kills Leatherback and Otachi, while almost destroying Hong Kong in the process. Examining Otachi's body, Newton and Hannibal find out that it is pregnant. The infant Kaiju bursts out and devours Hannibal but soon dies from being strangled by its own umbilical cord. Newton and Hermann drift with the infant’s brain, discovering that The Breach can only open in the presence of a Kaiju's DNA.

As Herc was injured during the previous fight, Pentecost pilots Striker Eureka with Chuck. Along with Gipsy Danger, they approach The Breach. Three Kaijus emerge from The Breach to defend it, one being the largest ever encountered. The Jaegers kill one Kaiju and injure the others, but Striker is immobilized by the largest Kaiju. Pentecost and Chuck decide to detonate the bomb, as they were easily overwhelmed, depending on Gipsy's nuclear reactor to seal The Breach. After the explosion leaves the largest Kaiju alive, Gipsy kills it and rides its corpse into The Breach. Raleigh overloads the reactor and ejects Mako and himself using escape pods. The reactor explodes, killing several alien creatures and destroying The Breach. Herc, now the Marshal, orders to stop the war clock, indicating mankind's victory.

Raleigh and Mako's escape pods surface in the Pacific Ocean, where they embrace as rescue helicopters arrive. In a mid-credits scene, Hannibal cuts his way out of the Kaiju infant, and looks for his lost shoe.
