Ability
Combat:

CORE: Instead of a Semblance, what the AI's in the series have is a built in special function, designated as a CORE. Umi's CORE in particular, is the "Aegis Defense System". Unlike the rest of the AI in the CANDU series, Umi was designed more for area denial operations, rather than full on combat. Her CORE acts like a very broad-range detection system, tracking heat, movement, even using radar-like systems, all to detect incoming threats. With the data, she may proceed to either bombard the target directly, or transfer the information over to another AI or tracking system. The system also allows Umi to easily track multiple high speed targets, to the point where she can intercept the incoming projectiles with her own weapons.

However, the CORE is only operating at full capacity when Umi is immobile, focusing all her processing capabilities on tracking and interception. Her detection capability drops in negative correlation with increasing speed, as the battlefield is constantly changed with the new locations. Another issue in regards to tracking and interception, is that decoy systems and countermeasures would be a viable option. Chaff, flares, active/passive decoys, they clutter up the data, thus lowering the system's effective potential.
