Schneider Nachtreiher/40E Steel Haze

Schneider Nachtreiher/40E Steel Haze is the Armored Core used by V.IV Rusty in Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon. Built around lightweight Schneider parts, Steel Haze reflects Rusty’s speed-focused fighting style and his role as one of the most memorable pilots in the game.

The Nachtreiher/40E frame gives Steel Haze a slender, high-mobility silhouette suited to aerial movement, rapid positioning and aggressive close- to mid-range combat. Like other Armored Core machines, it is a modular assembly rather than a single fixed robot design, combining frame parts with weapons and internal components. Its association with Rusty and its sleek, fast profile make Steel Haze one of the standout AC designs from Armored Core VI.
