If the [[Stormsurge Ballistic Suit]] was considered the [[Tau]]'s first foray into Imperial Knight death machines, the KX139 Ta'Unar Supremacy Armour would be the Tau's first attempt at mass producing a Tau ''Titan''.

The Ta'Unar Supremacy Armour truly is, the [[Metal Gear]] Rex of the army.

== Overview ==

The largest class of [[Battlesuit]] in the Tau inventory at almost twice the height of the already chonky [[Stormsurge Ballistic Suit]], it is intended to meet a threat that the Tau Empire has not yet prepared for; the defense of worlds within their growing domain from the threat of other galactic races. Designed to counter anything from [[Imperial Knight]]s to monstrous [[Tyranid]] bio-titans, the KX139 lacks the maneuverability of other battlesuits, and is instead intended for balls out [[MOAR DAKKA|''firepower'']]. Earth Caste engineer Fio’o Ke’lshan Sho’aun developed the KX139 to mount a dynamic yet stoic defense against the enemies of the Tau Empire. Development began after it was found that Tau heavy flyers such as the [[Manta]] were often outclassed in the form of a gratuitous amount of Flakk cannons.

The KX139 bristles with weaponry, with its primary armament being a back-mounted [[Pulse Ordnance Multi-Driver]] or [[Nexus Meteor Missile System]]. Additional weaponry includes triple [[Ion Cannon]]s or [[Fusion Eradicator]]s on each arm and two chest-mounted stations known as the Vigilence Defence System with [[Burst Cannon]]s and [[Missile Pod]]s. Other weapons options include a [[Heavy Rail Cannon Array]] with [[Fragmentation Cluster Shell Launcher]]. Protection is provided by a Barrier Shield Generator, which can withstand even Titan-class weaponry.

== Crunch ==

When it comes to 9th Edition, this Metal Gear comes with 4 Smart Missile Systems, 4 Burst Cannons, 1 Pulse Ordnance System (that can be swapped for a Nexus Meteor Missile System or a Heavy Rail Cannon with Cluster Shells ability), and 2 Tri-Axis Ion Cannons (that can be swapped for Fusion Eradicators). T8, 30W, 3+/5++ makes it a bit more durable than a Knight. It can fire all it's weaponry while in melee. It can move through any unit without Monster or Vehicle.
