First issue:
Despite only being considered a test and a project, and being based on an older model armor, the Mk. VI armor improved upon the Mk. I armor but was intended to be a "side-project" while James Rhodes was Iron Man wearing the Mk. V armor. Stark eventually donned the Mk. VII armor (which he was designng for James Rhodes) which replaced the Mk. VI armor.
