The Hulkbuster armor is a heavy-duty exo-frame (an add-on to the Mk. XI Modular Armor) designed for maximum strength amplification at the cost of reduced versatility and mobility. As its name suggests, it was specifically designed for hand-to-hand combat with the rampaging Hulk.
The armor was rated with a lift (press) capacity of 175 tons. During its maiden run, the armor enabled its creator Tony Stark to hold his own in sustained physical combat with the Hulk. Its first appearance was in ‘Iron Man’ (vol. 1) #304 (May 1994).
