Gundam ZGMF-X20A Strike Freedom SD 2

freedom-gundam-papercraft.jpg

DOWNLOAD

Like the latest DRAGOON system deployed by ZAFT, Strike Freedom's Super DRAGOON system uses a new quantum computer technology that allow pilots lacking enhanced spatial awareness to operate remote weapons with relative ease. The system has also been further enhanced by Terminal and thanks to the DRAGOONs, Kira Yamato is now able to more freely position Strike Freedom's weapons in various angles and engage multiple targets from multiple directions if needed to. This is a considerable improvement over the Freedom's single forward-direction attacking, now giving the Strike Freedom a full 360 degree attack range.

Like the Freedom, Strike Freedom is design to operate alongside another mobile suit, in this case, the ∞ Justice and is stationed on board the warship Eternal. The suit also has full flight capabilities in the atmosphere, and is equipped with Freedom's Multi Lock-On System, Full Burst Mode, as well as the ability to dock with the METEOR weapon system to augment its already impressive firepower.

Gundam ZGMF-X20A Strike Freedom SD

title.jpg

DOWNLOAD

Strike Freedom's design focuses on mobility rather than armor strength as Kira is rarely hit, and as the beam shields can compensate for the defensive fragility. As a result, the movement range of the joints is increased through the splitting of the armor and its sliding mechanism. To complement this, the internal skeleton also has PS armor. When the internal skeleton phase-shift, the unit possess near human flexibility and through its glowing effect, is able to discharge overflowing residual energy within the body through the joints. This internal PS armor also helps to withstand the high output and Gs caused by Hyper Deuterion and the new propulsion system, playing a role in increasing Strike Freedom's mobility. However, the main contributor to the MS's superior mobility is the mobile weapon wings, which can be deployed in the "High Mobility Aerial Tactics (HiMAT) Mode" to enhance the suit's mobility in the atmosphere or in space. The wings also features a variant of the "Voiture Lumière" propulsion system, which can generate a visual effect called the "Wing of the Skies" similar to ZGMF-X42S Destiny's Wings of Light and is used as a means of high speed movement. This system can only be activated when the Strike Freedom deploys all of its Super DRAGOONs, leaving the thrusters unobstructed in the remote weapons' docking sections to create this effect.

Gundam RX-93-2 Hi-Nu SD 2

The most prolific difference, however, is its distinct back boosters and revised fin funnel system. The fairly standard backpack design of the ν Gundam is replaced with a much more unique dual "long booster" system, with another long booster situated between them and two propellant tanks angled below the dual long boosters.

These boosters were capable of great accelerations, and the propellant tanks extended the duration of time the boosters could remain active. The long boosters also served as the storage area for the unit's fin funnels. Also, unlike the ν Gundam, the Hi-v Gundam could recharge the fin funnel's power supply, extending their performance time.

Gundam RX-78 SD

Complete.jpg

DOWNLOAD

The RX-78's initial concept was that of a powered armor, the primary design for Yoshiyuki Tomino's proposed series Freedom Fighter Gunboy. The series later changed its name to Mobile Suit Gundam and Kunio Okawara was given Tomino's concept to shape into a finalized design for the anime. Okawara did various designs, including the original design on the right, before settling on the current, more samurai-styled design (see below picture). One of the common questions asked is why did the enemies in the series keep referring to the RX-78-2 as White while it is a mix of blue, red, and white. Tomino's response in the novel version of Gundam is that the original design was to be a grayscale machine, made up of mostly white and light gray coloring. However, Sunrise disapproved of the coloring and insisted the unit to be painted in brighter colors to attract attention like other Super Robot anime at that time. As a side note, Katoki Hajime stated in the Gundam Sentinel special edition that, the MSA-0011 S Gundam also went through a similar process but the reason for it is because Bandai authorities thinking the S Gundam did not give a Gundam-ish look until he painted it in the colour scheme of RX-78-2.

Gundam RX-78 NT-1 Alex SD 2

nt1_001.jpg

DOWNLOAD

As the One Year War raged on, the Federation was learning that its greatest weapon, the RX-78-2 Gundam, had a major flaw with how it was working: its pilot. As Gundam pilot Amuro Ray's Newtype powers quickly emerged, the Gundam found itself greatly overworked by its pilot's great reflexes. Wanting to fix that, the Federation set out to develop a brand new prototype, the RX-78NT-1 Gundam "Alex", to make the most of Amuro's Newtype abilities. However, unlike the Newtype Mobile Armors fielded by Zeon, the NT-1 didn't utilize wired pods or bits - due to the fact that the Federation did not have the same Newtype research that Zeon did and wouldn't have it until the end of the One Year War - and instead was developed to be much more responsive to its pilot, utilizing the Magnetic Coating pioneered by the RX-78-3 "G-3" Gundam and the brand new Panoramic monitor. As well, the NT-1 Alex was also outfitted with a brand new set of armor known as the Chobam Armor, transforming the Alex into the Full Armor Alex. However, the use of the armor would set the Gundam's total weight to a whopping 95 tons, effectively killing the speed the Alex was meant to have.

However, Zeon would learn of the creation of the Alex and sent the Cyclops Team to destroy it. The Federation would get it away from its Arctic Base and to Side 6. The Cyclops Team would attack the colony and would finally succeed in critically damaging the suit, thanks to Zeon rookie Bernard Wiseman, who would sacrifice his life to stop a nuclear attack. By this time, the One Year War would come to an end and the Alex project would be dropped in favor of the more common psycommu-based Newtype weaponry.

As the Earth Federation had not researched the extent of Newtype powers (such research would not become available until the acquisition of the Flanagan Institute by the Federation), the RX-78NT-1 Gundam "ALEX" did not have any sort of psycommu control. Instead, the RX-78NT-1 was optimized at every level for the vastly superior reaction time of Newtypes. Test pilot Christina MacKenzie (an Oldtype) noted that the machine was incredibly powerful, almost to the point that it was out of control.

Gundam ZGMF-X56S Impulse SD

impulse1.jpeg

DOWNLOAD

The ZGMF-X56S Impulse is a prototype general purpose combat mobile developed by ZAFT as part of their Second Stage Series. Though with its base armaments the unit serves as a general purpose machine, its true power is similar to the Earth Alliance's GAT-X105 Strike. Using optional equipment packs known as Silhouette packs, that mount on a hardpoint on the machine's back, the Impulse can take on specialized combat roles, such as long range heavy assault or close quarters combat, or receive equipment that boosts its base capabilities. The weaponry of the Impulse is largely identical to the GAT-X105 Strike, although far more advanced. Its armaments include chest-mounted CIWS guns, anti-armor knives, a beam rifle and a shield for defense. Additional armaments are granted through the use of Silhouette packs.

Gundam ZGMF-X42S Destiny SD

destiny-gundam-papercraft.jpg

DOWNLOAD

Developed as a high-performance and versatile machine, the Destiny's design allows for multiple external and internal weaponry. During the design process, it was deemed that a standard MS frame would hinder the overall performance of the Destiny in terms of maneuverability and the ability to operate its weapons quickly. The designers solved the problem by incorporating an armor dividing system similar but different to that used on the ZGMF-X20A Strike Freedom. This system works in conjunction with a sliding mechanism for the dividing armor panels. The internal frame is composed of smaller and flexible components which utilize armor panels that can separate into smaller portions to allow the leg units to move through its full range of motion. The joints are constructed of the same materials found in Phase Shift armor. When activated, it is possible to adjust the stiffness of the joints during motion. The reaction also produces a metallic glow when the joints are active.[1]

The Gundam makes use of the Core Block System implemented in the other V Project units. The torso of the Gundam is mostly hollow so that a FF-X7 Core Fighter can dock with it. This allows the pilot to jettison the legs and torso of the Gundam should the Gundam be too heavily damaged and gives the pilot a chance to escape from battle.

Gundam MSZ-006 Zeta SD 2

The MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam's design was originally used to build three prototypes; the "MSZ-006-X1", the "MSZ-006-X2", and the "MSZ-006-X3" as part of Project Zeta. While these machines can transform, there is too much metal fatigue on the frame. This problem was corrected by Kamille Bidan, a Newtype teenager, incorporating innovations of that time such as the "movable frame" concept extracted by the Anti Earth Union Group from the Titans' RX-178 Gundam Mk-II project (headed by Franklin Bidan), and the Gundarium gamma alloy used in the RMS-099 Rick Dias.

RX-121-2 Gundam TR-1 (Hazel II)

01.jpg

DOWNLOAD

The RX-121-2 Gundam TR-1 [Hazel II] is a RGM-79Q GM Quel (Hazel Reserve Unit) stationed aboard the Titans Test Team mothership Aswan for parts exchanges, which has been equipped with a tri booster unit. This tri booster unit is a device with high thrust for use in assault operations, and the plan was to test it with the Hazel, but when the Hazel Reserve Unit is converted to the Hazel II this equipment is used for its main thrusters. However, because the Hazel II was constructed in a hurry, its balance couldn't be considered entirely satisfactory. The designation "Early Type" refers to the machine in the first stage of its conversion from Hazel Reserve Unit to Hazel II, before a crest-shaped sensor unit is installed in its head. The machine's colors are also the same as those of the RGM-79Q GM Quel on which it is based, and it has not yet been painted with the Titans Test Team's characteristic yellow pinstripes.

While its head remains unchanged from the Hazel Reserve Unit, the Hazel II Early Type is equipped with the same backpack and shoulder units as the original Hazel. However, since it doesn't carry shield boosters, its shoulders are usually fitted with multipurpose launchers rather than holding grips. It also lacks the movable booster pod of the original RX-121 Gundam TR-1 Hazel, since the attachment point is taken up by the tri booster unit.

Gundam RX-121-2A TR-1 [Advanced Hazel] SD

Complete.jpg

DOWNLOAD

Like the RX-78NT-1 Gundam "Alex" developed during the One Year War, the RX-121 Gundam TR-1 [Hazel] is designed to use a Full Armor system. The Hazel is based on the RGM-79Q GM Quel, with enhancement parts added to each section to give it the high performance of a Gundam-type mobile suit. Of these enhancement parts, the "white parts" of the backpack, rear skirt armor, and leg sections are fixed in place, and only the armor on the front of its torso constitutes a detachable Full Armor system. When this detachable bulletproof armor is installed on the front of its torso, the armor damaged in battle can be easily replaced, which is an advantage in terms of maintenance. However, since the extra armor also increases the machine's weight, it has the drawback of impairing the Hazel's maneuverability.

Gundam RX-121-1 TR-1 Hazel Custom SD

gyara06.jpg

DOWNLOAD

The Hazel Custom's basic specs, including its generator and thruster performance, are similar to those of the GM Quel. Its leg sections house thermonuclear rocket engines with an output of 17,500 kg apiece, and its backpack is equipped with the same movable booster pod as the original Hazel. The thermonuclear reactor inside this pod serves as both a supplemental generator and a hybrid jet/rocket engine, with an output of 390 kW and 18,000 kg respectively. The Hazel Custom retains the support actuator units and enhancement parts of the original Hazel, and can carry all the same equipment. A multi weapon latch can be plugged into its center skirt armor to support options like a sub arm unit or a flexible beam rifle unit, and another multipurpose latch is located above its cockpit hatch. While the Hazel Custom's High Mobility Form is identical to that of the original Hazel, its Assault Form is equipped with the same booster pod used by the RMS-117 Galbaldy β High Mobility Type, rather than the Hazel's usual movable booster pod. Two shield boosters are attached to this booster pod, and the mobile suit is also equipped with the Galbaldy β's extendable shield.

Gundam XXXG-00W0 Wing Zero SD

wing-zero-gundam-papercraft.jpg

DOWNLOAD

Wing Zero was designed by the five Gundam engineers fifteen years prior to the events of the Eve Wars. It is the ancestor of the five Operation Meteor Gundams (Wing, Deathscythe, Heavyarms, Sandrock, and Shenlong). Designed with "Perfect Victory" in mind, it boasts exceptional abilities and is one of the two suits which utilize the ZERO System (the other being the Gundam Epyon), but because of this dangerous mental interface, it was ultimately never constructed. The plans remained hidden away until Quatre Raberba Winner desperately built it to carry out his revenge following his father's death. Unlike the gundams constructed based on its design, the Wing Gundam Zero was built to be capable of both ground and space combat from the beginning. Like the Wing Gundam, it can transform into a high-speed flight mode dubbed "Neo-Bird Mode." Furthermore, its signature twin buster rifle has more than twice the output of the Wing Gundam's buster rifle, giving it enough power to destroy an entire space colony or resource satellite in a single shot. It features hidden thrusters in the shoulder armor, where the armor splits open to reveal the nozzles. The feet also house powerful thrusters in order to give the Neo-Bird Mode extreme speed.[1]

Gundam RX-78-4 G04 SD

Complete.JPG

DOWNLOAD

The RX-78-4 Gundam Unit 4, more commmonly referred to as "G04", was more advanced in many ways than its more famous predecessor. While not designated as a space only unit, the G04, along with the RX-78-5, only saw combat in space with the 16th Autonomous Corps after the Battle of Jaburo. As such, it was outfitted with technology that had been developed after the deployment of the RX-78-2 and using knowledge that had been gained by that unit's combat experience. It was equipped with the standard vulcans and 2 beam sabers like the other Gundam units. It was armored with the new Luna Titanium Alloy. It was able to utilize all of the hand armaments of the Federation.

It was also outfitted with several things the older Gundam model was not. It was able to make use of 2 small beam guns attached to the forearms. They were presumably powered by the same E-Cap technology as the other beam weapons but, understandably, would have had fewer shots and lower power than larger beam weapons. The booster pack was larger and included external fuel tanks found on many later OYW mobile suits. It was also more subdued in color than the Unit 2. It was cream rather than white and the torso/shoulders were black with dark blue accents rather than the bright yellow, red, and blue of the White Base Gundam. It was, perhaps, as the RX-78-2 would have been had its development not been stalled by the attack on Side 7.

Gundam Musha SD

080117uu7.jpg

DOWNLOAD

Looking similar to the RX-78-2 Gundam, the Musha Gundam differs from the original due to its Samurai Motif. The mobile suit is armed also with powerful weapons including the Sankoumaru Jumonji Yari, a powerful spear that could pierce through tough mobile armor. It also has its default weapon, the Nichirinmaru Katana and two Denkoumaru Naginata. Aside from its default close combat weaponry, the Musha Gundam is also equipped with the Tanegashima gun for long ranged combat.

Since in the SD Gundam series, the Musha Gundam is a living mobile suit and somehow is like a real warrior, this is the reason why the unit has no pilot of its own.

Gundam RX-178 Mk-II SD

mk2_17.jpg

DOWNLOAD

In both purpose and appearance, aside from its color scheme, the RX-178 Gundam Mk-II is designed to be a direct descendant of the RX-78-2 Gundam.

Weapons-wise, the Gundam Mk-II's armament and optional armament are in essence a reflection the weapons employed by the original Gundam, though those in themselves are a standard set of weaponry for both Earth Federation and AEUG mobile suits. The only fixed weapons of the suit are two beam sabers, but the Mk-II can carry a vulcan pod, a shield, a beam rifle, a hyper bazooka and a clay bazooka if necessary.

It also features what had become the standard 360-degree panoramic screen and linear seat. The multiple panels of the panoramic screen make up a single 360-degree display, which covers the entire inner surface of the spherical cockpit. The image displayed on this screen is a computer simulation constructed from the cameras distributed around the mobile suit's exterior. The viewpoint is that of the mobile suit's head, and the image is carefully edited to remove the mobile suit itself. The linear floating seat is suspended in the center of the cockpit, supported by a linear arm which electromagnetically counters G-forces and impact shocks in order to protect the pilot. When used in conjunction with the 360-degree panoramic screen, the linear floating seat also gives the pilot a larger field of view and eliminates blind spots.
