Special Attacks:
Kamen Rider Delta's finishing attack is called the Lucifer's Hammer (ルシファーズハンマー, Rushifāzu hanmā) this finisher is executed when the Photon Stream is shot from the Delta Mover and when it connects, it stuns the adversary, in which the Rider executes either a bicycle kick or a front dropkick into the stream, causing the enemies' destruction.
The Delta Armor has several key features in its design. Unlike the Gear, the armor only exists after the wearer transforms.
- Photon Blood: A glowing substance that provides all of the Rider’s powers and generates all of the physical features of the armor. The Photon Blood is generated from the Delta Driver.
- Sol Foam/Metal: Soft parts of the armor are made of Sol Foam, and the hard parts are made of Sol Metal 228. This substance is generated by the Delta Driver to form complex machinery that is powered by Photon Blood. If the Foam or Metal are damaged, the armor switches off and resets itself.
- Black Shell Met (ブラックシェルメット, Burakku Sheru Metto): The head. It is a reinforced helmet developed by Smart Brain, and has a thin shell layer made out of Sol Metal (ソルメタル, Soru Metaru), a super-metal with a hardness close to that of a diamond. An impact absorption bag is installed inside.
- Receiver Slate (レシーバー・スレート, Reshībā Surēto): The large triangle on the forehead of the Black Shell Met. It receives the Demon's Idea from the Demon's Slate on the chest armor, and is directly connected to its wearer's brain by a capillary cable which has a diameter of 0.52 nanometers.
- Ultimate Finder (アルティメットファインダー, Arutimetto Faindā): The large eyepieces of the Rider give them 180 degrees anterior field of view. They also allow the wearer to have night vision and X-ray vision.
- Global Feeler: The antenna on the Rider’s head can be used to communicate with the Smart Brain Satellite and the Smart Brain computer network.
- Shoulder Sword (ショルダースウォード, Shorudā Suōdo): Delta's shoulder armor. It is made out of Sol Metal 228, a super-metal developed by Smart Brain that has a hardness close to that of a diamond. When used in shoulder tackles, it concentrates Delta's Photon Blood, making it a powerful weapon.
- Demon's Slate (デモンズ・スレート): A strengthening device located directly on the triangle part of the chest plate. It forcibly raises the frequency of Delta's gamma brain waves to increase his fighting instincts. However, it can change the wearer's personality and cause mental breakdown if used for too long.
- Delta Lung (デルタラング, Deruta Rangu): The triangular chest armor found under the Demon's Slate. It is made out of Sol Metal: a super-metal developed by Smart Brain which has a hardness close to that of a diamond. It disperses the force of any sustained impact in a thousandth of a second, and is durable enough to directly take the firepower of a tank. In addition to this extreme durability, the Delta Lung also features a built-in oxygen tank that can supply its user with oxygen for up to 3 hours.
- Bright Streams (ブライトストリーム, Buraito Sutorīmu): The white lines running through Delta's Armor, which carry white photon blood that has the same power output as Faiz's Axel Form. They feature special maneuvers that are not seen on Kamen Rider Faiz or Kamen Rider Kaixa's Photon Streams, dividing into a fork-like formation at key points on the Sol Foam suit. This creates a reverse bottleneck effect, increasing the flow of the Photon Blood.
- Bigger Stream Pattern (ビガーストリームパターン, Bigā Sutorīmu Patān): Delta's unique mechanism which increases the amount of energy flow by dividing the Bright Streams into 3 points at the arms and the legs.
- Photon Terminal (フォトンターミナル, Foton Tāminaru): Where the Photon Streams connect with the gauntlets and greaves. It is twice as strong as Kamen Rider Faiz and Kamen Rider Kaixa's. It has three terminals connected that emit a lot of energy, so this equipment has resistors along the stream so that the suit itself does not self-destruct, and it supplies power to the whole body in a stable manner. There is another Photon Terminal located on the back.
- Power Anklets (パワーアンクレット, Pawā Ankuretto): The ankle armor, which has the role of protecting the wearer from the force generated from powerful kicks.
- Flex Bellows (フレックスベロウズ, Furekkusu Berouzu): They surround the calves as a shock absorbing air bag to protect the legs from the intense impact when kicking or from falling.
- Photon Muzzle (フォトンマズル): Control terminals on the soles of Delta's boots that release concentrated Photon Blood when performing the Lucifer's Hammer. The opening is in the shape of the letter "Δ".
