Starship troopers?

This looks more like a Tomahawk Destroid from Macross

Looking at the Destroid, looks like this art may actually be a fusion of the both or an original design. The feet and helmet are slightly different, and the Tomahawk doesn't have hands

I noted that after making the post but the shoulders pods and the arm cannons even with hands are still the "trademark" kit for the Tomahawk

The google translation of the commentary says it's "mobile infantry heavy artillery type," so I'm gonna tag it as a fusion of the two since the Tomahawk influence is so clear.

Creator connection.

Miyatake Kazutaka of Studio Nue created both visual designs in the early 80s.

I mean back before the copyright reworks this also literally what the Tomahawk looked like in Battletech/Mechwarrior as well.
