 Item Number SCP-1517-JP Object Class Safe Euclid, Provisional Special Containment Procedures All discovered SCP-1517-JP instances are to be brought into containment by a mobile task force from a nearby containment site. Following this, the entity is to be contained in a nearby site's reinforced humanoid containment unit and constantly monitored by means of video recording. Archived Containment Procedures Special Containment Procedures SCP-1517-JP is to be contained in a reinforced humanoid containment unit at Site-DE ██████. Constant monitoring is to be carried out by means of video recording. Description SCP-1517-JP is a group of military combat humanoid droids measured 1.81 meters in height and massing 155 kilograms. Currently, the Foundation has contained two instances, respectively designated Dash 1 and Dash 2. See Addendum 5 While obscured to the age of wear, the remnants of a Hakenkreuz painted on the SCP-1517-JP's right shoulder are recognizable. The form of the Swastika used by Nazi Germany. The following inscription is present on the back of each object. W-200 Ross, 1940 Based on the contents, it can be determined that these objects were created by Mr. Ross, the leader of the group of interests, Forth Reich, during his work for the Third Reich. SCP-1517-JP are primarily composed of an alloy, closely similar to high-grade Duralumin. The object's eyes are made of glass, and are suspected to be capable of sight. SCP-1517-JP is entirely mechanical, and active entities are capable of autonomous movement. As SCP-1517-JP instances are highly resilient, inspection of their internals is difficult. In addition, as they possess a slow-acting ability for self-repair, the object is impossible to fully neutralize. Some of the SCP-1517-JP currently in containment are in an inactive state. Inspection of the interior of these entities has shown that there is an empty space in their chest, which indicates that their power source has been removed. Under the feet of Nazi Germany in 1945, SCP-1517-JP-1 in an inactive state was retrieved by the main foundation. Up until the discovery of SCP-1517-JP-2, SCP-1517-JP-1 was thought to be an isolated anomaly. Addendum 1 From the retrieved documentation, prior to becoming active, SCP-1517-JP-1 possessed the following abilities, artificial intelligence, the ability to fire machine guns attached to both arms, a high degree of physical ability, further resurgence of the object is planned. Addendum 2 On 1946, while investigating post-war Japan, the Foundation discovered a similar object to SCP-1517-JP-1 in a forest in Iwo Jima and moved to Site-81AZ. Now a part of Ogasawara's subprefecture, Tokyo. Following this, the entity discovered in Germany was designated SCP-1517-JP-1 and the newly discovered instance in Japan was designated Dash-2. SCP-1517-JP-2 was discovered to possess traces of an Nishoki painted on its left shoulder and was in an inactive state similar to SCP-1517-JP-1. The Rising Sun Flag of Imperial Japan Based on the area surrounding its retrieval location, it is suspected that SCP-1517-JP-2 was in use in a combat capacity. Investigations ongoing Between February 19, 1945 and March 26, 1945, the island was a site of a battle Iwo Jima between the Japanese and American armies. Addendum 3 Following investigation revealed that SCP-1517-JP-2 was sent to the Empire of Japan at the signing of the tripartite pact between Germany, Italy, and Japan. Following this, SCP-1517-JP-2 was under the management of the Imperial Japanese army and was used in combat multiple times. Addendum 4 With this discovery, the Foundation carried out an interview with a former Nazi scientist. Interview E. Vladimir Holman Interviewer. Agent. Marks. Note, Vladimir Holman was involved with Nazi scientific research projects. Following the arrival of the Foundation, he was taken into custody as he was thought to be involved in the creation of various anomalous objects. Begin recording. Agent. Marks. Let's start the interview. Holman. Understood. Do you know about SCP-1517-JP, or rather, I believe you called it W-200? Yes, in fact it was a collaboration between Ross and myself. Please tell me more. At 1940, Julian from the Toltenkamp asked me to make a duplicate of a robot for him. The same year, I reported that I had successfully duplicated it, and the same day it was decided that I'd work with Ross. Cassius Julian, a member of the 3rd SS Panzer Division, who is close to Mr. Ross, appears to have surrendered to the Allies on May 2, 1945, but information on this is unclear. Refers to the 3rd SS Panzer Division. The same day? Yes, either way, Ross seemed to be involved in making droids for a decent while before that. However, in order to do that, he needed people, experience, and a prototype, and at that point he was looking for people. Though I don't know if it's just my conceit, he might have marked me since long ago. Go on. After that, Ross and I made the W-200. Ross had put a duplication mechanism on them, so that they could be manufactured infinitely. After the practical test, though it was just a prototype, we started to use them as disposable weapons. Perhaps we produced them in the right numbers. I see. But if you were to make so many of them, it drained the country's coffers, no? Would that not be a problem? No, the party immediately saw that. However, Ross immediately started work on another kind of droid. At that point, Julian had another idea. Go on. He suggested we sell the W-200 to other groups, and we took his idea. Who did you sell them to? There weren't that many of them, but they were quite large-scale. The main ones were Vermetius and Marshall, Carter, and Dark. But we also made sales of smaller ones. When sales were hard, we had to sell them off via hearsay and hide their origins. And also, when we made the pact with Japan and Italy, as a gift of good will, we sent a W-200 each company. Soon enough, the W-200 were not used for much, other than as a product. And did that help the combat prospects of the Nazis? It let us expand our territory in 41, I believe. After that, we used the money from sales to fund more robot production and droid research. That proposal really gave the higher-ups a lot of material to do that. But in the end, we failed. We were attacked by the Soviets, and the droids were destroyed. There can't be too many of them left. That's all I know. As for where the last W-200 went, I'm sorry, but I don't know. Thank you for the information. We'll end it here. End recording. From the information obtained, it was later determined that the object was used to project reverse in the reversal. Project reverse in the reversal was a project under the direct leadership of Hitler to create robot squadrons in order to protect important bases and higher-ranking Nazi officials, as well as for rapid maneuverability and combat. Addendum 5 Following the interview, the Foundation conducted a further investigation of the information retrieved from the Nazi science program. Following this, suppression of various groups of interest indicated in the documents led to the retrieval of 17 further SCP-1517-JP instances, both active and inactive, which have been designated SCP-1517-JP-3 through 19 and stored in nearby containment sites. As active instances are confirmed to exist, the containment procedures have been revised and the object class has been raised to Euclid. Further changes of object class are in consideration.
