Warning! Spoilers ahead for Hulk Vs. Thor: Banner of War and Hulk #7!
While Iron Man has some of the most technologically advanced weaponry in the entire Marvel Universe, Thor and Hulk's latest battle proves Tony Stark isn't even close to becoming the strongest Avenger yet. Iron Man often designs armors to rival Thor and Hulk specifically, such as the Hulkbuster and Thorbuster suits.

In the last few years, Tony has created armors that can travel at the speed of light, emit limitless amounts of projectile energy, and defend him from almost anything imaginable. It undoubtedly puts him at a much closer rank to Thor and Hulk than other Avengers like Hawkeye, Black Widow, or Captain America. For example, his armor in the Heroic Age, also dubbed the «Bleeding Edge Armor,» resides within his skin and covers him in seconds. On top of that, the Heroic Age suit gave Tony enough energy to defeat the Master of Magnetism himself, Magneto. It virtually makes no sense how a man covered in metal can outmatch Magneto, but Iron Man is so powerful that he's actually defeated the X-Men villain a number of times.

If any Iron Man armor has the ability to dispose of Thor and Hulk with ease, it's this one.
