Telepathically-controlled Array of Rapid Action WeAponry (TARAWA)
Designed as a method of giving SDA psions more offensive potential both in in the wake of the growing tide of war facing the Terran Alliance, and the need for SDA-managed fire support against Spirit Beasts, the TARAWA System was conceived as a combination armament and mobility platform that could be mentally controlled by psionically-talented individuals. Developed in secret on Mars with the help of the Teuthidoids in late 2029 and early 2030, the TARAWA Initiative was an experiment aiming to combine Human drone platform tech, Soft AI, Teuthidoid biotech, and advances in Human weapons technology in order to give psionically-talented humans the ability to deal with a variety of different combat and threat environments.
Level 1

At level 1 a user of the TARAWA System is only able to to control two wings at once. This increases by two every four levels thereafter, maxing out at 10 wings at level 17.
