The first true Tyrant, the T-002 was created within the depths of the Spencer estate. During the events of the Mansion incident, Albert Wesker programmed it to slay the remaining members of Raccoon City’s Special Tactics And Rescue Service (S.T.A.R.S.). As the Tyrant awoke from its slumber, it attacked Wesker in its initial anger, impaling him and leaving him to "die" (in fact, Wesker's master plan had foreseen this eventuality and had already taken measures against it). The tyrant was able to be subdued and was thought defeated only to break out of the mansion and onto the roof following a mutation. With the help of Brad Vickers, who gave the group a Rocket Launcher; Jill Valentine, Barry Burton, Chris Redfield, and Rebecca Chambers were able to subdue the Tyrant, and destroy the Spencer estate.
This Tyrant could be seen both as a catastrophic failure and a tremendous success. However it failed, because it was originally conceived as an intelligent killing machine that could follow orders and could be able to moderately pass as human (this was ultimately achieved with Umbrella's mass-produced Tyrant, the T-103). Obvious flaws in the model were its grotesque malformations, its unpredictable behavior, and its protruding heart, which provided an obviously vulnerable point. However, the Tyrant performed phenomenally well in other areas, such as resistance. It was able to endure a considerable amount of punishment and still pass through a major mutation. This second mutation was much more resistant to gunfire, and was only killed with a rocket blast, though its raw strength was so considerable it was able to swat incoming rockets aimed at it. Along with this, it had improved reasoning abilities and was much more resistant to small arms fire.
[edit] Trivia
Jill Valentine can summon this tyrant as a hyper combo attack in Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and destroy it with a rocket launcher.
The Tyrant suffers from Dextrocardia. It's heart is on the wrong side of its body.
