Piloted by the leader of the Drake Pirates, Captain Benjamin Drake, the Blackbeard Hugo is a high-performance machine outfitted with weaponry salvaged from Calamity War era wrecks. Pirates view such treasures as obscenely valuable, and battles over them can be fierce. To that end, this variant of the IPP-66305 carries two pairs of sub-arms. The first pair holds the Highway Powered Missile Launcher, while the second wields the Brigand Powered Gatling. The Hugo's Shot Anchor Claws have been relocated to a second pair of sub-arms, for greater flexibility in combat. In addition, the Hugo's Head Missile's have been replaced with nanolaminate chaff emitters, for quick getaways. At his crew's insistence, the captain fights from the edge of the battlefield, gradually picking off enemies weakened by the vanguard of the Drake Pirates. With their superior teamwork, the group has carved a name for themselves amongst the pirates of the Mars Sphere.
