Creation
Unit-02 is the third Evangelion completed, the first "Production Model" Evangelion. Several mistakes made during the construction of Prototype Unit-00 and Test Type Unit-00 were refined in her design. The first Evangelion built specifically for combat, Eva 02 is a walking tank designed for battle against the Angels.
Purpose
Ostensibly, like all the Evangelions, Unit-02's stated purpose is to defend Tokyo-3 and the whole world from the Angel threat.
Abilities
In addition to incredible size and strength, Unit-02, like all Evangelions, possesses the ability to generate an A.T. Field. Unit-02 does not possess an S^2 organ, and relies on electrical power supplied via her Umbilical Cable and internal batteries.
Unit 02 possesses her own progressive knife, stored internally in her left shoulder pylon. This progressive knife is different from Eva 01's. Eva 01's progressive knife resembles a Bowie knife, while Eva 02's prog knife resembles a giant utility knife; it is capable of replacing the blade with a new one stored in the handle if the existing blade is damaged.
Eva 02 possesses an internal weapons rack of at least 8 missile-spikes in its right shoulder pylon, which can be fired with great force.
Soul
Unit-02's soul is that of Kyoko Zeppelin Soryu. For this reason her daughter, Asuka Langley Soryu was chosen as her pilot. Not all of Kyoko's soul was absorbed into Unit-02; the portion of her soul containing her maternal aspects was absorbed into the Eva. As a result, while Kyoko physically survived her "contact experiment" with Unit 02, she was driven clinically insane and had to be institutionalized, profoundly affecting her young daughter Asuka.
