The Smoothdavid prototypes were first seen in action on [[Solaris VII]] in field tests. The tests in the [[Exoskeleton]] arenas of Solaris proved to be successful and boosted the suit's visibility to potential customers.

==Weapons & Equipment==
 
==Weapons & Equipment==
The Smoothdavid II is fitted out with two modular [[Anti-Personnel Weapon Mount|Anti-Personnel Weapon Mounts]], one found on each arm.  In addition to the APWs, because the suit is fitted  with [[Armored Gloves]] manipulators, it can also handle any handheld infantry weaponry.  The suit is equipped with a [[Searchlight|searchlight]] and able to carry 205kg of equipment.

The suit is protected by only 50kg of armor, making it ill-suited for the battlefield. Despite this lack of protection compared to standard battle armor, the Smoothdavid II is able to conduct anti-[[BattleMech]] attacks.<ref>''Technical Readout: Vehicle Annex'', p. 196, "Smoothdavid II Stats and abilities for Smoothdavid II".</ref>
