When the government needed a team of pilots to fly/control the twenty-first-century Sentinels (built by Stark Industries; run by SHIELD and the ONE Agency), Tony Stark knew there was only one guy with the combat and armor experience (not to mention ethics) for the job: Jim Rhodes. He made his good friend the commanding officer and combat instructor. And, of course, Rhodey would need a new suit for his fancy new job. Enter the Sentinel Armor (Model I, Mark I), a one-off suit, for any occasion.

Clad in a fresh blue and purple color scheme, no one’s going to mistake Rhodes for Iron Man, but he definitely fits in with the next-gen Sentinels. Little is known about the suit’s capabilities, but given Rhodes’ experience in armor, it is more than likely that it was packed with the full array of modern IM features, gizmos, weapons, and extras.
