It is possible the original design was some form of construction vehicle, like a bull dozer or fork lift, and thus it became a universal design that was not prohibited for the Neosapiens to produce or operate prior to the war. The design itself has been displayed to be highly variable and mounts a variety of weaponry ranging from fusion missiles and machine guns to power fists and flame throwers. Both Sean Napier and Nick Tyree utilize customized models of the DW-240, while early in the war Jinx Madison was assigned to operate a variant that mounted heavier weapons.
