Origins[]

Exo-frames or E-frames for short were created by humans in their effort to terraform and colonize Venus and Mars[1] and to protect themselves from any possible aggression from outside of the Solar System. They can be thus divided into two main categories — civilian and military models. However, since the series primarily described the Neosapien War that followed the Second Neosapien Revolt, nearly all E-frames shown in Exo-Squad were battle machines. Another distinction is that between human (Terran) and Neosapien E-frames.

Originally, all E-frames were humanoid exoskeletons (hence the name), but after several decades of extensive development non-humanoid E-frames vehicles based on the same technologies have been introduced. By the time of the Second Neosapien Revolt, all machines steered directly by one or two pilots were considered E-Frames, regardless of their type, purpose or design: walkers, tanks, space fighters, bulldozers, etc.

A common feature of all E-frames is a sophisticated neural interface that backups "normal" manual steering: each pilot had to undergo surgical implantation of a "cyber socket" to the back of one's neck that allowed direct control over the E-frame via a "cyber jack". Since the brain patterns of humans and Neosapiens are slightly different, E-frame interface has to be reconfigured depending on the genetic race of the pilot. All E-frames are powered by fusion packs. Civilian fusion packs generate much less power than military ones, while the latter are (if intelligently applied) a potentially devastating explosive.

After Professor Algernon joined the Exofleet, some of his inventions were implemented into the Able Squad's E-frames, making them truly unique (so-called Algernon Upgrade).
