space), and ask him to place his left arm to his chest then swing it out to the side, the resulting inertia of the arm movement would result in the rest of his body turning the other direction in order to conserve angular momentum. A variant of the psycommu system, developed by Anaheim Electronics and experimentally installed in the MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam in attempt to build a smaller-scale, more economical psycommu system. Only a handful of reckless pilots, like Char Aznable, Paptimus Scirocco and Haman Karn, are willing to forfeit the protection of the pilot suit in order to avoid this minor inconvenience. It is said that this type of control lever was actually much more simplistic to use over the switches and computers used by past Mobile Suits. The linear rail contains actuators, which are controlled by a computer to mitigate the g-force from acceleration and impact. Perfect Grade, Master Grade, High Grade Model Instruction Manual, Bandai. A shock-absorbing device which becomes a standard feature of mobile suit cockpits around U.C. This field has difficulty permeating conductive materials like metal, water, and plasma, and it exerts a repulsive force against mega particles. MAHQ has the line art of the weapons for most of the Mobile Suits. When under the influence of the system, the mobile suit's visor glows red and all of its exhaust vents glow yellow. For example, if we place a person in a micro-gravity environment where friction is negligible (i.e. [9] In the Cosmic Era time line, one of the authors of Gundam Century articles (while still a high school student at that time), Shigeru Morita, who had become a regular employee of Bandai, was assigned to write these kinds of technological articles, possibly a method used by the company to attract Universal Century techno fans to watch the new series. The protons and helium ions produced by these fusion reactions can then be directed by a magnetic field to generate thrust. An I-field is used to deflect enemy mega particle beams. The Minovsky-Ionesco reactor was named after its fictional inventors, Dr. Y.T. Name: MSN-04 Sazabi Origin: Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack Pilot: Char Aznable Height: 25.6 meters (overall height), 23 meters (head height) Weight: 71.2 metric tons (max weight), 30.5 metric tons (standard weight) Powered By: Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor Destructive Capacity: Town level+ with beam weaponry (at least 83 kilotons), multi city block level with missiles The mono-eye is mounted on rails, and can slide back and forth to cover a wide field of view. Corodal Carbon. Mobile suit pilots have to endure much higher acceleration forces than aircraft pilots, caused by maneuvering and engaging in close combat in a mobile suit. This strengthening of the pilot's abilities is done by forcibly increasing and speeding up the neurotransmissions in the pilot's brain. Using this interface a Newtype pilot can direct remote weapons, and operate huge mobile armors, by thought alone. The semi-transparent coating is not useful in countering anything other than lasers, thus a new technology has to be developed. During the events of mobile suit Zeta Gundam; when the AEUG were making a drop on Jaburo, their mobile suits used balloon like devices called ballutes to slow their decent down and prevent burning up. When this propellant is discharged through the rocket nozzles, it creates a counter-force in the opposite direction, generating thrust. This principle is used in the flying armor employed by the RX-178 Gundam Mk-II, and in the transforming MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam. The Minovsky-Ionesco reactor was named after its fictional inventor. CP-01 Buster Sword (Newtype Series) Creation Particle Research (Newtype Series) Creation Particles Research (GS:E) Crystal Field Generator. Despite being set in the distant future, the Universal Century has several takes on modern weapons such as the twin gunned Type 61 main battle tank that bears a striking resemblance to the Israeli Merkava, the "Calt" M-72A1 assault rifle that is near identical to the British L-85, anti mobile suit weapons reminiscent of the BGM-71 TOW and Kornet, and even light utility vehicles similar to World War II era Jeeps. This diffraction and polarization process disrupts the electromagnetic waves. One of the most famous rationale being used is the Active Mass Balance Auto-Control (AMBAC) system, referenced also in various other series including Macross. Born on December 2, 1923 to Tetter and Ivana Minovsky in Moscow, Yuri was born into a Party family. This frame was completely separate from the sensors, thrusters, armor, weapons and propellant tanks. After the war, the Earth Federation Forces refine this concept into a dedicated mobile suit support device, substantially reducing its cost. The technology coats multiple layers of high specific heat capacity material on top of the armour that evaporates in high temperature. Unlike an I-field generator, which is effective only against beam attacks, the beam shield blocks both beam and projectile weapons. The HADES was created by the Augusta Newtype Lab with the data they requested from Chlust Moses regarding the EXAM system. 0100, designers begin to consider shifting systems like generators and thrusters outside the mobile suit itself. The Minovsky-Ionesco reactor was named after its fictional inventor. When Minovsky particles are released into the air or into open space, the positive and negative particles spontaneously align themselves into a three-dimensional cubic lattice. A Psychoframe can project a Psychofield, which can happen when two Psychoframes are near, this Psychofield is a space where the human consciousness can manipulate the world regardless of the laws of psychics. On Earth, other options for detecting enemies include sonar and magnetic anomaly detectors - the latter devices, used in the modern era for locating submarines, sense the magnetic distortions caused by metallic objects. meters62.992 ft 755.906 in Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor 1870 kW2,507.711 hp 16800 meters55,118.11 ft Pilot only (in panoramic monitor/linear seat cockpit in torso) Titanium Alloy Ceramic Composite 76600 kg168,874.045 lb 84.437 tons 0-4 x Beam Saber OR Grenade Launcher2 x Dummy Firing Port Beam RifleBeam Rifle (GM III's Several years after the ship's destruction SNRI would take the Minovsky Drive and improve it, reducing the size and installing onto three mobile suits, the F99 Record Breaker, as the "wings of light". The shelf nozzles installed on Crossbone Vanguard command mobile suits like the XM-04 Berga Dalas and XM-05 Berga Giros are examples of this external device concept. This device automatically adjusts to the terrain the mobile suit is walking along in. The shock balloon, an inflatable cushion similar to the airbags in modern automobiles, provides additional protection in the event of violent deceleration. Likewise, the lift-generating Minovsky craft system, which vehicles like the White Base use to float in Earth's atmosphere, isn't a true anti-gravity system. The Minovsky particle has near-zero rest mass - though, like any particle, its mass increases to reflect its potential or kinetic energy - and can carry either a positive or negative electrical charge. When the Hyaku Shiki's transformation system fails, the mobile suit was retooled into a non-transformable unit and the wing binders were kept as they can serve as additional AMBAC limbs. Designed by the scientific team of Zeon's Living Dead Division, the Reuse "P" Device was meant to improve the performance of soldiers significantly injured during the One Year War. An electromagnetic catapult installed on the surface of a planet, moon, or other celestial body, which is used to accelerate objects to escape velocity. Without such a field, a pilot would be boiled alive in a few nanoseconds and the suit would burst into superheated gasses, thus explaining many of the series' casualties when the reactor of a mobile suit is pierced with a beam weapon powerful enough to disperse this I-field. However, the full latent potential of this system can only be tapped by a Newtype pilot. 0081 -The Wrath of Varuna-, Stampede: The Story of Professor Minovsky, Mobile Suit Gundam F91: Formula Report 0122. According to the timeline deduced by the Gundam Officials, in UC 0071, Zeon researchers created the Minovsky ultracompact fusion reactor . A Newtype pilot is able to control these funnels with great precision via a psycommu system, allowing the user to conduct BVR attacks on a target from almost all directions without having to establish visual contact, making a funnel-equipped mobile suit extremely deadly. However, the high cost of both raw materials and processing limit their use to military applications, aircraft, spacecraft, medical devices, connecting rods on expensive sports cars and some premium sports equipment and consumer electronics.In the Universal Century, Titanium Alloy is used as the standard armor material for most mass-produced mobile suits. A prototype transformable Man-Machine developed by Metatron, the Gaia Gear is a ultra high-performance unit built during the pinnacle of Universal Century era technology. However, his inventions were applied very differently by the Earth Federation. AMBAC is by its nature limited to re-orienting the unit about its center of mass, and is not a substitute for propulsion. Each reactor is even further miniaturized A Ata Geta 617 followers More information A device that generates lift from shock waves like those produced during atmospheric entry. Minovsky in his earlier days when he was serving the Earth Federation, was still a piece of black box technology and rendered him a heretic in the classical physics community (where classical in the Universal Century includes the modern physics of today). However, due to massive use of mega-particle/beam weapons and the necessity of developing an anti-beam armor, this technology is no longer a basic requirement on mobile weapons. However, it had the same weakness as all other I-field Generators - the generators tend to overheat and thus force cooldowns. Should one be found, the NT-D System activates and turns the Unicorn Gundam into its "Destroy mode", improving its stats overall and allowing it to take control of Newtype weaponry used by others and turn them against them. The Minovsky particle also interferes with the operations of electronic circuitry and destroys unprotected circuits due to the particles' high electrical charge which act like a continuous electromagnetic pulse on metal objects. Universal Century technology refers to technology created in the fictional Universal Century timeline of the Gundam anime media mix. However, it is not as effective as the later anti-beam coating, and the armour will still be damaged if the beam weapon is fired in close range or has a high enough power. However, since these devices are unable to survive the explosion of a mobile suit's main reactor, research continues into the core block system and other escape mechanisms. Thanks to this interference, warfare in the Universal Century era relies heavily on visual sensors, which can be tricked by inflatable decoys. Beam barriers generated in Flight Form allowed the Gundam to achieve supersonic . This became known as the "Minovsky Effect". The Minovsky Drive allowed the ship to reach incredible speeds, such that it could travel between Earth and Jupiter over the course of a few weeks instead of the months it takes other ships. According to the Gundam Century, MS encyclopedia 2003 and Gundam Officials, the Minovsky Physics all started from the invention of the then seemingly impossible idea of a nuclear fusion reactor that has a higher theoretical efficiency than classical physics, due to the Minovsky particle. Also allows the user to use wire-guided weapons. If controlled, the particles can form fringes of different widths and further interfere with electromagnetic waves of shorter wavelengths. This system permits the use of simple remote weapons like incoms, but even with computer support, these devices are capable only of two-dimensional movement. [1] Although they are only fictional technologies, they form a base that of the Real Robot genre of anime originates from. However, seeing the horror of the Zabi family's militaristic regime, Minovsky defected back and offered his expertise to the Federation. It is equipped with high-power thrusters that allow atmospheric flight under gravity for a short period of time. The AMBAC system coordinates movements and micro-movements precisely, allowing a continuous balance and stability without expending reaction mass. Within the next few years, they identified the cause: a new elementary particle generated by the helium-3 reaction on the inner wall of the reactor, which was named the Minovsky particle (, Minofusuk ryshi) or "M" particle. As described in the Gundam Officials and Mobile Suit Gundam the novel appendix, the semi-transparent coating () is originally used as the laser medium, mirror and partial mirror of laser weapons in the Universal Century timeline. This system uses an external power source - namely, a powerful laser - to heat a spacecraft's propellant. Minovsky and Dr. Ionesco. Most colonies in the Universal Century are O'Neill "Island 3" type colony cylinders, yet a few early built Bernal sphere (Island 1) and Stanford torus colonies are still in function, but most are changed to space stations or discarded. 0050, these space colonies are home to 80% of the human race. This extra propellant greatly extends a mobile suit's operating range, and enables it to stay in combat longer. The Minovsky particle has near-zero rest mass - though, like any particle, its mass increases to reflect its potential or kinetic energy - and can carry either a positive or negative electrical charge. Dimensions: head height 23.0 meters Weight: empty 29.1 metric tons; max gross 65.4 metric tons Armor materials: Gundarium alloy Powerplant: Minovsky type ultracompact fusion reactor, output rated at 3,340 kW Propulsion: rocket thrusters: 80,000 kg total Performance: unknown Equipment and design features: sensors, range 19,300 meters This technology served as the basis of the beam-resistant coating and anti-beam coating although the only common factor is the multiple layers. Another version of the I-Field Generator but allows the user to redirect incoming beam weapons fire back at targets. This system could not be miniaturized to fit on a mobile suit until after U.C.0100. It provides a type of sacrificial protection against any type of beam weapon. However, in March 2012, the life-sized Gundam statue at Gundam Front Tokyo was upgraded with sealed joint parts to represent having received magnet coating,[5] and sealed joints were later used to indicate the magnet coating upgrade in several Gunpla model kits, such as the Master Grade RX-78-2 Gundam 3.0. Ultracompact Minovsky Fusion Reactor | The Gundam Wiki | Fandom Wikis Advertisement GUNDAM WIKI 8,964 pages Explore Characters Mechanic Series Community in: Soft redirects Ultracompact Minovsky Fusion Reactor Log in to edit Gundam Wiki:Technology#Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor This page is a soft redirect . This has influenced later series to include their own reasoning to rationalize the existence of humanoid fighting vehicles. It is considered the trademark of Zeonic's famous MS-06 Zaku II. The idea is simple: "If four limbs can maneuver the unit better than none, why not equip them with 5 or more?" Propellant is the reaction mass used in the rocket engines of mobile suits and other spacecraft. Then when the motion of the arm stopped, the rotation of the body would also stop. While on the Earth heat can be transferred to water or air, space is a vacuum which means the heat must be given off through radiation, an extremely slow process. Powerplant: Minovsky type ultracompact fusion reactor, output rated at 1,400 kW Propulsion: rocket thrusters: output unknown; Minovsky craft system: output unknown. Written by mechanical designer Hajime Katoki, summarized both in and out of universe technologies of the Universal Century, sourcing from Gundam Century, Gun Sight, VF-1 Valkyrie, MS Graphical Guide 1~3, MSV Technical & History 1~3. It is often used in conjunction with the propulsion system to quickly turn the unit and shorten aiming speed as well as directing the main thrusters. This system is used to deliver resources mined from the lunar surface to the Lagrange points, where they can be used for space colony construction. However, the difficulty and expense of producing this alloy preclude its use in mass-produced mobile suits like the RGM-79 GM. Mobile suits performing AMBAC motions would presumably move similarly to present-day astronauts performing extra-vehicular activity: both typically having roughly similar body structure, their use of that mass to control their rotation would presumably be similar, even if calculated by different means. The bio brain is an artificial mass of brain matter collected in glass cylinders, acting as a biological computer in which one can upload a copy of their personality and memories, without deleting those in the original brain. The JEF would travel from Earth to Jupiter, which has a high level of helium-3 in its atmosphere, and then come back to Earth with the gas fuel. However All Record Breaker units, their spare parts, and all data on the "wings of light" were lost. The resulting advancement is the tail binder. A method of preserving one's personality and memories developed by the Jupiter Empire. Power Source: Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor Armor Material: Gundarium Alloy Pilot Accommodations: Pilot only (in panoramic monitor/linear seat cockpit in torso) Manufacturer: Anaheim Electronics Operator: [REDACTED] Weapons: - 2x 60mm Vulcan Gun: Head-mounted projectile weaponry that is utilized against missiles and light-armored vehicles. The Minovsky particles produced as a byproduct of the helium-3 fusion reaction were recycled to keep that reaction going. [10] The series' technology is now serving as the inspiration for academic research in different fields, which could include moon settlements and mega-particle cannon. This diffraction and polarization process disrupts the electromagnetic waves. While the X3 I-field acted like a normal I-field, it also had the added bonus of being able to let the Gundam grab beam sabers with its hands without destroying them. The tail binder is also seen on later models of military aircraft and space fighters in U.C.0088, on the FF-08 Wyvern.[22]. In some cases weapons and shields are also integrated into these manipulators, but their primary functions are carrying equipment and manipulating objects. The Mobile Suit Epoch Vol. Later, following the trend of militaristic and technological interest in the community, Gundam Sentinel Special Edition included a section called imidam 0093 (Innovative Mobile Suit Information Dictionary, Annual Series, intentionally using an m at the end to reference Gundam), subtitled Basic Knowledge of Gundam Mechanics. In the original show, the magnet coating process has no visible indication. The device detects and amplifies the user's brainwaves, and a sophisticated computer system enables the user to manipulate weapons by using their mind. Technical & Historical Notes: A further development of the RX-77-3 Guncannon, the RX-77-3F Guncannon Heavy Type F fixed all of its predecessor's issues & had far better operational capability. This provides the basis for the miniaturizing of fusion reactors installed in mobile suits since a controlled I-field can block the infra-red waves. However, they are vulnerable to weapon fire, as Kacricon Cooler (And many other pilots both AEUG and Titan) later found out the hard way that his ballute was set on auto-leaving him vulnerable; Kamille Bidan took advantage of this and shot at it. Due to internal space limitations, some mobile suits carry additional propellant in external When the funnels are not in use, they are attached to the mother suit's surface hardpoints for recharging. These tanks use a two-layered construction, with one layer containing propellant, and the other holding extra coolant. According to the Gundam Century, MS encyclopedia 2003 and Gundam Officials, the Minovsky Physics Society was formed in U.C.0045 at the space colony Side 3. Binders are technological instruments that provide extra control for the AMBAC systems. Among them being having a five minute time usage so it wouldn't kill its pilot and the fact that it doesn't discriminate against real Newtypes and Cyber-Newtypes. However, due to its nature of ablating when defending against great heat, ABC can only tolerate a few hits to the same spot. The first variant to Titanium Alloy, this version is both stronger and lighter than titanium alloy. This article needs to be cleaned up to conform to a higher standard of quality. As its name implies, the bio-computer is similar in structure to a human brain, and its operating processes resemble human thoughts and feelings. [24], Smaller versions of the mega particle cannon are presented in the series, the most famous being the Beam rifle used by the titular mobile suit RX-78 Gundam, which utilizes a technology called E-cap. 0065, Minovsky noticed a unique electromagnetic effect within the completed reactor, which he attributed to a new kind of subatomic particle. These space boats can hold more than a dozen passengers each, in addition to two pilots, and are equipped with handy manipulator arms. Although most can argue fictional technologies carry no real-life impact, these technologies are referred to in almost all of the series of Universal Century. When the Minovsky particle is spread in large numbers in the open air or in open space, the particles disrupt low-frequency electromagnetic radiation, such as microwaves and radio waves. The Axis researchers develop an improved lightweight version called Gundarium Gamma, which is introduced in the RMS-099 Rick Dias and widely used throughout the Gryps Conflict. A technology similar to the later well-known anti-beam coating called beam-resistant coating () was developed and became a standard after applying on the MS-07B-3 Gouf Custom. [5] Gundam Officials has collected this information and has presented it along with plot history and character summaries in an encyclopedic form, and MS Encyclopedia 2003 has a short technical summary of these technologies in its first section before going into the lists of mobile weapons in different series, which earlier editions only have.
