Project P.R.O.T.E.A.N.

Project Picotech Regenerative Ordnance with a Tactically Evolving Adaptation Network,Iron Man 2 DS Version abbreviated as Project P.R.O.T.E.A.N., was a project developed by Stark Industries. The aim of the project was to create intelligent machines that could regenerate or modify whatever they were built for. It was shut down after being categorized as questionable and dangerous. After his dismissal from Stark Industries, Kearson DeWitt revived the project at A.I.M.
==History==
===Early Days===
Stark Industries developed Project P.R.O.T.E.A.N. with the intention of creating intelligent machines that could regenerate or modify whatever they were built for. At the time, this was weapons. However, the project was later deemed questionable and dangerous, and was shut down. Kearson DeWitt, who had worked in the Theoretical Weapons Division of Stark Industries and been one of the original engineers on the Arc Reactor prototype, continued to work on Project P.R.O.T.E.A.N. and refused to stop allocating resources to it. For this reason, he was fired by Tony Stark.Iron Man 2
===Revival===
DeWitt was recruited by A.I.M., who tasked him to create their own Iron Man project. Using their resources, he revived Project P.R.O.T.E.A.N. and evolved it into Project Ultimo and Operation Daybreak. However, despite the overwhelming regenerative capabilities of P.R.O.T.E.A.N. Hybrids, even A.I.M. were not stupid enough not to build a kill switch. Stark and J.A.R.V.I.S., upon encountering and fleeing from a Hybrid, notice the base's pylon towers use the Shock Point energy and, if unified together, would output in excess of 50 petajoules; a pocket sun, capable of exceeding the P.R.O.T.E.A.N regeneration. Stark used the pylons to destroy the P.R.O.T.E.A.N. Hybrid, and ordered J.A.R.V.I.S to access his own files on Shock Point energy to upgrade their weaponry in order to handle Hybrids in the future.
