- Capable of lifting 5,000 tonnes at a radius of 40m
- 250m tall in its tallest configuration
- Supported by 52 counterweight containers - weighing 100 tonnes each
- Powered by 12 engines
- Runs on 96 individual wheels as it travels between 3 different lift locations
- Will lift over 700 pieces of prefabrication including the heaviest components for the reactor buildings
