The Series 500, or T-500, is the first true terminator endoskeleton made.[1]. It was superior to the T-400 in every way. On its first deployment, it killed off the surviving population by a tenth. It was the best terminator series of its time, faster and more agile than the previous models.

Characteristics

The T-500 appeared stocky and stood about 6'6" tall. Its processor was powerful and could perform multiple combat calculations in battle. Though its CPU was set to read-only, it had some rudimentary learning capabilities. The 500 Series had extremely fast reaction speed and superhuman strength. It had a hyper-alloy chassis and could perform a full range of human motions. It was also the first of its kind to feature dual optic units, and thus did not require a laser targeting system for depth perception (such as the T-400's shoulder mounted unit).

Variants

  • T-500R -Also known as "Reaver", it has intelligence no better than that of an ape's. It has an extremely grotesque design (similar to a T-600G) where it had its head removed and the cpu and optics placed in the chest. It prefers to use its hands instead of weapons and had elongated talons for fingers.
  • T-500I -Probably the first ever attempt to make an infiltrator series. A crude latex skin was used, which did not perform as well in the field as Skynet had planned.

Appearances

Like its previous model, the T-400, the T-500 series appears in the game Terminator: Dawn of Fate.
