The amount of swords she used would not have actually fit in a backpack that small.

Of course, her swords also float, and she was capable of dragging down an aircraft with seemingly nothing grounding her, but yes, focus on the backpack. Not the laser she made out of swords.

However look at the swords when they first come out of the backpack. At first it looks like there is only one until the thing splits apart into about 10-15 different blades. Those are some compact swords that could easily fit inside a bag that small if 10 swords can take up the same amount of space as one.

As far as the laser, the swords clearly morph into a gun-type mode when she is charging the blast so that all checks out. As far as dragging a plain down, even if she was a robot that shouldn't work unless she weighed a few hundred tons. However it is possible that even if the backpack was closed at the time, the two swords she fired earlier to brace herself for that laser charge could still be bracing her as she immediately attacks the airjet after that laser.

As far as the original question, it hasn't been confirmed in the series that she is a robot/cyborg/android, but the writers aren't exactly good at hiding things like this (people were saying Blake was a faunus by episode 1)
