Jack-2

Jack (ジャック Jakku?, Russian: Джек), sometimes capitalized as JACK, is the name of a series of robots that are upgraded in each main installment in the Tekken series of fighting games. There has been a playable Jack model in every main Tekken game except for Tekken 4. Prototype Jack is seen as separate to the main line.
The first Jack model robot was developed in the former Soviet Union by Doctor Bosconovitch and was designed to be a ruthless killing machine. The Russian military learned of Kazuya Mishima’s plans for a world coup d’etat and dispatched Jack to the tournament to eliminate him.
The original Jack did not complete his mission to kill Kazuya. He was subsequently upgraded with improved AI circuitry and renamed Jack-2.
On a germ warfare mission, Jack-2 abandoned its objective when it came across a young infected girl (whom his system should have identified as an enemy insurgent). He fled from the conflict, taking the girl, Jane, with him. The Russian military kept Jack-2’s desertion from the public and scrambled to find him. Meanwhile, Jack-2 entered The King of Iron Fist Tournament 2 to free Doctor Bosconovitch, his creator, from the Mishima Zaibatsu so that the scientist could make him human.
Unfortunately, Jack-2 was destroyed by a satellite weapon before he could complete his mission. Jane, who was present for Jack-2’s destruction, was haunted by his fate. When she reached her late teens, she dedicated 10 years to restoring Jack-2. She got him back to 90% functionality, but Jack-2 seemed to have lost the AI functionality that gave it emotional capabilities. Jane discovered that the Mishima Zaibatsu’s Mishima Industries subsidiary was responsible for most of Jack-2’s programming. She also discovered a hidden program called Project Gun Jack. She installed the program in Jack-2 and tried to sneak into the Mishima Zaibatsu with the newly dubbed Gun Jack to discover more about the mysterious program.
Her infiltration of Mishima Industries was unsuccessful; she and Gun Jack were discovered by Tekken Force and fired upon. Gun Jack shielded Jane, but was non-functional by the time the gunfire ceased due to extensive damage.
Jane was found and rescued by G Corporation the next day. She joined their robotics division and successfully created a new model, Jack-4. Jack-4 models were mass produced and were used by G Corp in an (unsuccessful) attempt to assassinate Kazuya, who was beginning to cause issues for them.
Using data collected from Jack-4 models, Jane began working on a new model, Jack-5. She entered Jack-5 into The King of Iron Fist Tournament 5. When he had finished collecting fight data from the tournament, he returned to the G Corp laboratories. Jane used the data to craft more sophisticated combat algorithms for him.
As the world became engulfed in war and G Corporation entered combat with the Mishima Zaibatsu, Jack units were mass produced and sent to fight. Jane heard that the Mishima Zaibatsu were manufacturing a copy of the Jack unit and was furious. She sent Jack-6, G Corp’s most sophisticated model, to investigate the truth behind the rumors.
A power struggle emerged in G Corporation relating to the creation of the ultimate next-gen humanoid weapon. Jack-7 was entered into The King of Iron Fist Tournament 7 in an attempt to prove its superiority to G Corp’s other humanoid weapon, Gigas.
