So this plus copies of itself can help with Cyber Dragons as a power up card / Link set up. In addition with multiple of this on the field this can max out at 3600 ATK with all 3 on the field. Finally the fact its states that when a attack is made involving your monster and an opponents means you can summon this while your attacking with a Cydra to not only boost its ATK but also be able to push for additional damage with this if you clear the field of monsters with the first attack.

I know B.E.S. got support not too long ago, but I never expected Gradius and co to get support. This being since they didn't really get anything past the GX era. I like it. It's like a Machine Juragedo. While the ATK boost is limited to Machines, unlike Juragedo it can Special Summon from the GY. So I guess you could use Scrap Recycler to drop this in the GY.

As the owner of a spaceships deck IRL that struggles with ATK stats, this is an interesting thing to find.
The deck has to run stuff like Honest or Solidarity as it is, or Prideful Roar, to take over anything.

I like how Ties of the Brethren and Falcon Beta can recruit it, but I wish the effect (2) increased "during damage calculation only" as a continuous effect, otherwise Jade Knight becomes pretty unusable for its immunity to Traps again....
