The Mark 48 (Mark XLVIII), also known as "Hulkbuster Mark II", is an extra heavy modular armor, created by Tony Stark and Bruce Banner as a security guarantee in the event of an uncontrollable Hulk uproar or other possibilities.
The armor was featured in Avengers: Infinity War, and it was used to fight against The Outriders and Thanos' Black Order.
Its design was based entirely on the previous Hulkbuster, only with updated and more streamlined armor plates. The Mark 48 is extremely large in size. The armor has a dark red hue as its general coating color, along with the gold and silver plates in various areas of its structure. It is covered with layered dense gold-titanium pieces and has several arc reactors around its body.
The Mark 48 is also 11 feet high, like the previous Hulkbuster, and 3 feet higher than the Hulk. Apart from its height, it is also the second heaviest armor that exists in the MCU.
The Hulkbuster Mark II is a Modular Armor Bruce Banner used it in the Battle of Wakanda.

Capabilities[]
- "Whoa! This is amazing! It's like being the Hulk, but not actually."
- ―Bruce Banner[src]
- Superhuman Strength: The suit was built to match the incredible superhuman strength of Hulk. It has several Arc Reactors all over the suit. It was strong enough to kill many Outriders and despite sustaining heavy damage and losing the left arm, was still able to take on Cull Obsidian and eventually overpower him. It was even able to push the Mad Titan Thanos to the ground and deliver a blow to his face, although it should be noted that Thanos was greatly weakened due to the injuries on half of his body and his recently severed left arm.
- Superhuman Durability: Built to withstand and overpower Hulk, this armor is able to withstand massive amounts of damage, such as direct attacks from several outriders and Cull Obsidian.
- Superhuman Speed: Despite the armor's large size, it is powerful enough to run at high speeds, easily keeping up with Wakandan skiffs.
- Superhuman Stamina: To be added
- Superhuman Reflexes: Like the rest of Stark's armors, this suit has an onboard AI that assists its user in fighting and reacting to threats.
- Flight: Like all the other armors, the Mark XLVIII has flight capabilities, although given its size, its speed, range and mobility are reduced.
- Heads Up Display (HUD): The suit contains a heads-up display within the helmet that can display various metrics and includes a targeting system used during combat situations.
- Self-Contained Life-Support System and Environmental Protection: To be added
- Collapsible Plating: Like many of its immediate predecessors, including the previous Hulkbuster armor, the suit's various parts, such as the helmet, are capable of collapsing and allowing the user to step in and out of the suit at will.
- Autonomic Prehensile Propulsion: Like its predecessor, certain sections can fly independently, mainly used to repair the Hulkbuster through attaching new parts. The forearm part is seen that it can attach to anything else, and it can lift them to the sky instantly.
- Repulsors: Unlike the other armors, the repulsors from this armor are red. They are capable of easily killing Outriders and stunning Cull Obsidian.
