It is most likely the final version of the Mark VII's design. The Mark VII was in prototype status when Stark deployed it to save himself and then join the battle with the Chitauri. Mark VII itself was destroyed when the mansion in Malibu was crashed into the sea along with Mark I, rebuilt Mark II, III, IV, V, and VI.
