Hammer Drones

The Hammer Drones were remote-controlled military drones designed by Ivan Vanko from Justin Hammer's previous failed attempts. Hammer intended them to replace Iron Man, while Vanko used them to take his revenge on Hammer and Tony Stark.
There are four different lines of drones, all inspired by branches from the United States Armed Forces.
==History==
===Ivan Vanko's Plan===
Justin Hammer wanted the Hammer Drones for display at the Stark Expo so that he could regain his contract with the government. Originally, they were supposed to be manned suits, but when Ivan Vanko worked on the suits, he changed them to remote-controlled drones. Vanko intended them to be used to attack Tony Stark.
Hammer was angry with Vanko, so he betrayed him and took the drones to the Expo. Vanko escaped and activated the drones and a remotely-controled War Machine armor to cause destruction. The Air Force Drones and War Machine began to chase Iron Man, only for some drones to crash and become destroyed. With the help of Black Widow, War Machine broke free of Vanko's control, and he helped Iron Man fight upcoming swarms of Hammer Drones. Iron Man defeated the last ones standing with a powerful laser beam, only to encounter Vanko in his own suit. After Vanko was defeated, he activated a self-destruct program that had all the destroyed or damaged drones explode, which created a spectacle of explosions all across the Expo.
===Alternate Universe Versions===
====Sold by Hammer Industries====
In an alternate universe, Hammer Industries produced and sold combat drones. However, the company was then bought out by Roxxon Energy Corporation, ending the production of Hammer Drones and giving Roxxon a monopoly on the product.Iron Man 2
====Produced by Whiplash====
In an alternate universe, Whiplash found an abandoned warehouse from which to produce a series of drones. He brought them to a technology demonstration and used them to attack. Iron Man then arrived and fought the drones while Natasha Romanoff left to find Whiplash. However, Whiplash was not at the warehouse, so Romanoff returned to help Stark fight the drones.Iron Man 2: Meet the Black Widow
