The page is about the TS-300 Stealth Terminator, which should not be confused with T-300 Terminator.

The TS-300 Endoskeleton

The Cyberdyne Systems TS Series 300 Stealth Terminator Infiltration Unit[1] or TS-300 , known among the Resistance as "Break'n'Buy"[1], is a stealth Infiltrator featuring ceramic endoskeletons, and personality transfer software to create undetectable one-off copies of real human beings.

Specification[]

A stealth series variant utilizing the most successful traits of the T-800 series, the TS-300 is MIR’s attempt to create its own Terminators and use them to replace key members of the Resistance.

Designed in the MIR Research Complex on the Kolya Peninsula, Russia, the TS-300 has a number of differences that have resulted in it having its own series designation. They have a ceramic endoskeleton that mimics human weight and physiology; this skeleton, however, is only as strong as human bone. They have complete with organ-systems, lifelike pheromones that even deceives animal detection, and built-in EM sensor masking allows them to deceive electronic detection systems. Its improved musculature means it has faster reactions, and is stronger than a T-8xx.

Personality transfer software from captive humans known as Custom Skill Mapping (CMS)[1] allows for a full infiltration capability by replacing specific humans. Earlier models had personality conflicts with MIR/Skynet directives, allowing original human personalities to override, resulting in Terminators who believe they are the humans they were templated from, since overcome with more stringent programming: within 100 milliseconds, a TS-300 can assert dominance over an upstart personality template, and purge it if required. TS-300 are capable of wireless communication with MIR and Skynet and other Terminators, and when needed they can physically link to computers with cables contained in their hips.

In The Terminator RPG timeline, Skynet 2.0 appropriates the design and sends multiple TS-300s back in in time to replace specific people throughout the timeline, often serving as sleeper agents unaware they are Terminators until they are activated.[1]

Early models had significant personality conflicts with MIR/SKYNET directives, allowing the original human personality to override the Terminator, resulting in units who believe they are their human-templates.

Captain Sergey Pavlichenko, the leader of the Spetsnaz cell, discovers these TS-300s are the escaped "Beta test" prototypes. These defective units believe that they escaped a MIR Concentration Camp, and work against the machines for humanity. However, sufficient damage to a Beta model can eliminate its human-personality, allowing the MIR/Skynet infiltrator protocols to reassert dominance, and convert the unit back into a Skynet-controlled terminator.

TS-300's are strictly limited in production quantities as they are intended to replace targeted individuals. Multiple copies of the same template are detrimental to infiltration success.

TS-300's are capable of wireless communication with both MIR and Skynet HK, and terminator units on discrete channels. MIR only releases nominal control of TS-300's to Skynet during joint operations, leaving them able to pursue MIR's unique agenda in opposition to Skynet covertly. Skynet is suspicious, but underestimates the threat posed by TS-300's in the field.

The Series TS-300 was discovered during a Spetsnaz rescue/raid in eastern Siberia.
