The hummingbird mecha suit is a small, nimble machine capable of flying in any direction, including vertical take-off and landing capabilities. Originally conceived by Asami Sato for construction projects, it was developed by her and Varrick in 174 AG for President Raiko to aid in the defense of Republic City against Kuvira and her army. Before they could be deployed, however, all the machines, save for the prototypes stored at Asami's office, were destroyed when Kuvira blew up the Future Industries' factory where they were stationed with her spirit energy cannon.
