Self-Repair:The Mark IV Sentinel has modest self-repair mechanisms.
Learning Program: Mark IV Sentinels have a special learning program that gives them an advantage against opponents upon analysis. This data analysis cand be stored for future use against the same opponent, and any other Sentinel can access the information. At the discretion of the government or Shaw, the data can be analyzed to provide a Sentinel with special weaponry against a particular mutant.
Flight: All Sentinels are able to fly.
 
Origins:
 
With the destruction of the Mark III’s, Sentinel technology languished until the attempted assassination of Senator Kelly by the second Brotherhood Of Evil Mutants. Then Sentinel construction was revived by the US Government through it’s “Project Wideawake”. The contract for rebuilding the Sentinels was awarded to Shaw Industries, whose president, Sebastian Shaw, was himself both a mutant and the Black King of the Hellfire Club. He hoped to use the Sentinels to further his own ends.
