Sentry Bot

A Sentry Bot is a robot that appears in Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas, Fallout 4 and Fallout 76.

Background
The sentry bot was created to provide security through overwhelming firepower. The sentry bot has a cool down phase after attacking, which results in its fusion core being vulnerable. The combat drone utilizes a variety of heavy weapons systems and explodes upon death. Sentry Bots use a minigun or Gatling laser on the right arm, and a missile launcher on the left. The robots have a combat inhibitor on their back that will cause it to frenzy if damaged. Sentry Bots possess judicial circuits, which are employed when they witness a murder or thievery, and will hand out death sentences to the criminals they find.

Sentry Bot
If engaged in combat for too long, they will eventually enter a cooldown period, blasting steam and flames out of vents on their chest and back while exposing dual fusion cores on their rear. Upon taking terminal damage, the Sentry Bot will initiate a self-destruct sequence. After a few seconds, they will explode. Additionally, the loss of both main weapons will prompt the Sentry Bot to initialize their self-destruct sequence and charge at their target.
