Horizon Brave (地平线勇士) is a Mark-1 Chinese Jaeger, launched December 22, 2015.
History
As a Mark-1 series Jaeger, Horizon Brave is among the first Jaegers constructed on Kodiak Island, Alaska when the Jaeger Program is greenlit by the Pan Pacific Defense Corps.[4] Horizon Brave is deployed in combat alongside Romeo Blue, Tacit Ronin, and Coyote Tango.
In 2019, Horizon Brave accompanies Gipsy Danger and Lucky Seven to Manila to stop a Kaiju.[5][note 1]
Horizon Brave held a record of two Kaiju kills before its destruction in battle in Lima, Peru.[1][6][5]
Features
Horizon Brave is armed with shoulder-mounted Cryo-cannons, used to freeze Kaiju in battle or power its melee attacks. "Sub-zero suckerpunch" and "Flash freeze" are two of its signature attacks. Like all Mark-1 Jaegers, Horizon Brave is powered by a nuclear reactor.
