The
only advantage of an Anti-Gravity Pod (considering its poor energy consumption
to performance ratio) is its ability to turn sharply and to "stop on a dime."
Acute maneuvers of this sort can be physically debilitating to anybody but a
Nullifier. These A.G.P. pilots require a six hour weight workout every
day simply to maintain their massive physique and high levels of endurance.
Such training is necessary in order for them to command a vehicle that can
reduce a normal man to a gelatinous pulp during the course of a simple turn.
Nullifiers are fed solely on a diet of high protein
gruel that looks like grey mush and tastes like wet cardboard. Their
muscles are always sore and their nerves are constantly on edge from the
stress. Consequently, a Nullifier usually has the temperament of a rabid
pit-bull.
In 2003, the G.I. Joe operative Heavy Duty was outfitted with a Nullifier uniform for infiltration purposes. This armor was later confirmed on Iron Grenadier Nullifier troops in 2006. In 2004, Cobra deployed the
Strike Team - Urban Division and included the
Nullifier, which
is truly a Flak-Viper with a new
designation. The reason behind designating a Cobra trooper with an
Iron Grenadier code name is still unclear at
this time. With the advent of the Stealth
A.G.P. piloted by Metal-Head, it is obvious
that Nullifiers as pilots are still very much apart of the Iron Grenadier air assault squadron.
