Cyclotron Power Core. [19] The AMBAC system is a fundamental technology that allows for thrusterless manoeuvring in the zero-G environment of space by mobile suits by means of precise movement control of their limbs in the Gundam universe. Because Sides sometimes share a single Lagrangian point, it is possible to have two Sides in close orbit to one another. Since the proton is positively charged, it can easily be trapped within a magnetic field. [9] Some older mobile suits, such as the RGM-79SC GM Sniper Custom, were also refitted with linear seats by the time of the Gryps War.[10]. Originally intended for use inside thermonuclear reactors, this alloy's superb strength, durability, heat resistance and radiation-absorbing properties make it an ideal material for mobile suit armor. In case of emergency, the inhabitants of a space colony can escape using small spacecraft stored in the colony's outer walls. The tail stabilator continues to be used on MS developed after U.C.0087, an example is the RGZ-91 Re-GZ. Furthermore, Minovsky also developed the Fluid Pulse system, which utlized the Minovsky Particles to drive the Mobile Suit's system, which allows active attitude control possible. A skilled pilot can use this crude device to deflect enemy attacks, but in the hands of a novice it's little more than dead weight, so designers sometimes opt to omit the shield and devote the equivalent mass to heavier armor for the mobile suit itself. It takes a strong pilot to use the system and even then the newtype girl maybe still against the pilot. The semi-transparent coating is not useful in countering anything other than lasers, thus a new technology has to be developed. Not wanting his rival Amuro Ray to be left with an unsatisfactory unit for their final fight, Char leaked the plans to Anaheim and allowed it to be used for the RX-93 Gundam. Thousands of fluid pipes, finer than human hairs, transmitted these pulses at supersonic speed to the rotary cylinders which drove the joints. Born on December 2, 1923 to Tetter and Ivana Minovsky in Moscow, Yuri was born into a Party family. The shock balloon, an inflatable cushion similar to the airbags in modern automobiles, provides additional protection in the event of violent deceleration. Powerplant: Minovsky type ultracompact fusion reactor, output rated at 3,980 kW Propulsion: . [7] Although it could be viewed as following the Star Wars trend, nothing similar has started before the 1981 publishing of Gundam Century. This is the main reason for his termination of service in the Earth Federation and taking residence in Side 3 prior to the One Year War. Later variants include Funnel missiles that are guided missiles using funnel-like remote control designs employed in the story Mobile Suit Gundam: Hathaway's Flash. This principle is used in the creation of the Minovsky craft system, which allowed a spaceship or heavy ground vehicle to "fly"/hover on Earth. A new type of control lever used in the mobile suits of the U.C. Only if he or she connects with her may the systems true performance come out. It is considered the trademark of Zeonic's famous MS-06 Zaku II. This system yielded a higher operating speed than hydraulics, and lower weight and greater structural simplicity than electric motors. It is a controversial system which seems to be similar to the earlier developed EXAM System. As Newtypes began to grow in number during and following the One Year War, the psycommu (psychic communicator) system was invented, which allowed these Newtypes to control wireless weapons known as bits and funnels, and even mobile suits, through thought alone. By the time of the Gryps Conflict most mobile suits have sealant launchers built into the fingers of their manipulators, as well as utility devices like signal flares, dummy dispensers, and fire extinguishers. Early beam rifles were either taken back to ships for recharging or simply discarded. 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. With the development of a new generation of highly compact mobile suits after U.C. The nuclear equation was: The reactant used a rare isotope of helium known as helium-3 (i.e., 2 protons and 1 neutron in the nucleus). 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. The list of authors can be seen in the page history there. This frame was completely separate from the sensors, thrusters, armor, weapons and propellant tanks. 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. A traditional space suit used for extravehicular activities, so named to distinguish it from mobile suits. Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor Fixed Armaments Beam Vulcans (Mounted on head) GN Micro Missile x24 Heat Claw Palm Busters x2 Handheld Armaments Beam Magnum x1 Beam Saber x2 GN Linear Rifle Remote Armaments Assault Bits x5 Standard Equipment Bioscanner Bit Control System Full Psychoframe I-Field Generator GN Field Newtype Destroyer System 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. It was handed from Phantom V2 Kai and used. 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. A method of preserving one's personality and memories developed by the Jupiter Empire. The fin nozzles, which project laterally from the Vigna Ghina's backpack, are connected directly to the mobile suit's generator for better energy transmission efficiency. This allowed the Pegasus-class to enter and exit earth's atmosphere and to fly while inside the atmosphere. Thanks to the effects of Minovsky particle interference, radar sensors are virtually useless in the battlefields of the Universal Century, and optical cameras are the primary means of detecting and targeting enemy vessels. By doing this, a Mobile Suit's reaction time is increased by 20-30%. These technological settings have also since then impacted a lot of anime and manga to have their own technological background to a certain degree[1]. These tanks use a two-layered construction, with one layer containing propellant, and the other holding extra coolant. These technological settings have also since influenced a lot of anime and manga to have their own technological background to a certain degree. 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. These devices give the mobile suit unparalleled versatility, and their built-in touch sensors provide immediate feedback for precise operation. 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 During the Zanscare War of the U.C.0150s, mobile suits deployed on Earth by Zanscare Empire used beam rotor (which could also be used as a beam shield or a rotary saw) to achieve long-distance atmospheric flight. The power output of a mobile suit's generator, although far lower than that of a warship, is sufficient to complete this process and form mega particles. Computer control system that takes over some of the basic tasks that a pilot normally does, and allows him or her to focus on other tasks. In addition to providing protection, the F91's armor also incorporates circuitry and cooling systems, allowing this highly compact mobile suit to make more efficient use of its limited internal space. The nuclear equation was: This is essentially the same equation as used in classical physics, with the addition of the fictional Minovsky particle as a catalyst, instead of a muon. This is the primary reason for the birth of the Zeon close-combat weapon: the mobile suit. 2, Sun in a box, Kofu Culture Imagine Publish, Inc., , Gundam "Weapons, Defensive measures" biography, PHP publication, Learn how and when to remove these template messages, Learn how and when to remove this template message, explain the fiction more clearly and provide non-fictional perspective, The High Frontier: Human Colonies in Space, "Comparing Gundam Technology! He aspired from his youngest memory to become a scientists. As described in the manga, Mobile Suit Crossbone Gundam, and MS Encyclopedia 2003, in U.C.0133, the anti-beam coating mantle is used to provide easily restored protection against beam weapon attacks. Zeon would try this with their MS-11 Act Zaku, but the suit wouldn't see the light of day until the Gryps Conflict. However, as the years went on, development into the I-field Generator would lead to interesting creations. Beam barriers generated in Flight Form allowed the Gundam to achieve supersonic . A design concept conceived in the early UC 120s through the development of the Formula 91 Gundam. [3] In the Cosmic Era timeline, one of the authors of Gundam Century articles (while still a high school student at that time), Shigeru Morita, who had became a regular employee of Bandai, was assigned to write these kind of technological articles, possibly a method used by the company to attract Universal Century techno fans to watch the new series.[4]. The process has the joints of a suit coated with a special material that, when energized, repels the joints to the point where there is zero friction. A shock-absorbing device which becomes a standard feature of mobile suit cockpits around U.C. 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 or "M" particle. When scattered in open space or in the air, the repulsive forces between charged Minovsky particles cause them to spontaneously align into a regular cubic lattice structure called an I-field. In this approach, a variety of functions are incorporated into the mobile suit's armor layers. In the closed environment of a space colony or lunar city, atmospheric pollution must be kept to an absolute minimum, so electric cars (often shortened to "elecar") are used for personal transportation. Technical specifications: + Pilot: Anna Hindenburg + Classification: Mass produced prototype Gundam- Special Operations Multipurpose Mobile suit + Height: 71.32 ft tall + Weight: 67.2 Tons + Developed From: MSZ-010 ZZ Gundam & RGM-96X Jesta + Armor material: Titanium alloy ceramic composite, and Gundarium alloy + and claimed that he did not think of Engineering and Electronics at all. This technology is also used in the colony laser Solar Ray, deployed by Zeon forces before the Battle of A Baoa Qu. This system was latter used by the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam. However, the system can be used to dodge incoming projectiles or small objects as the arms and legs of a mobile suit account for a significant portion of its total mass. [7][8] The first mass production mobile suit that adopted the linear seat was the RMS-106 Hizack. Dimensions: head height 23.0 meters Weight: empty 23.6 metric tons; max gross 52.4 metric tons Armor materials: Gundarium alloy Powerplant: Minovsky type ultracompact fusion reactor, output rated at 3,340 kW Propulsion: rocket thrusters: 56,000 kg total Performance: unknown Equipment and design features: sensors, range 19,300 meters In U.C. 150K subscribers in the Gundam community. The system is similar in principle to the momentum wheel system used in present-day satellites, though obviously more complex and allows the centre of mass move outside of the unit.[22]. Although these laser signals are limited to relatively short ranges, this is the standard means of communication in the battlefield, and these messages are very difficult for enemies to intercept. Special Equipment & Features Phantom Mane The propulsion system based on the Minovsky Drive used by the Phantom. 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. When scattered in open space or in the air, the repulsive forces between charged Minovsky particles cause them to spontaneously align into a regular cubic lattice structure called an I-field. Add to Favourites. The Minovsky-Ionesco reactor was named after its fictional inventor. In addition to an optical camera, this compound device also incorporates laser and infra-red sensors for precision targeting. | Anime Amino", Beyond the Time ~Mbius no Sora wo Koete~, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gundam_Universal_Century_technology&oldid=1129940757, Short description is different from Wikidata, Wikipedia articles that are excessively detailed from April 2012, All articles that are excessively detailed, Wikipedia articles with style issues from April 2012, Wikipedia introduction cleanup from April 2012, Articles covered by WikiProject Wikify from April 2012, All articles covered by WikiProject Wikify, Articles that need to differentiate between fact and fiction from April 2012, All articles that need to differentiate between fact and fiction, Articles with multiple maintenance issues, Articles with unsourced statements from July 2022, Articles containing Japanese-language text, Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License 3.0. 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, seeing the horror of the Zabi family's militaristic regime, Minovsky defected back and offered his expertise to the Federation. This design allowed for better energy efficiency, easier repair, maintenance, and modification of mobile suits, as well as increased maneuverability and fluidity of movements. 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". 1, Cities in the sky, Kofu Culture Imagine Publish, Inc., Hobby Japan Feb, 2005 issue, Ball special, Mobile Suit Gundam 00 Special report, Gundam Kyrios section, Gundam Sentinel special edition Gundam Wars III, ASIN: 4499205301, (Dai Nippon Kaiga Co. Ltd.), Sept, 1989. The new DACS (Divert & Attitude Control System) created by the Japan Self-Defense Forces in December, 2006 was quoted as an attempt to create a funnel system in real life by Gizmodo Japan.[27]. Main article: CloneSome individuals in the Universal Century are artificially-produced, genetically identical (or nearly identical) copies of others. Powerplant: Minovsky type ultracompact fusion reactor, output rated at 4,050 kW Propulsion: rocket thrusters: 168,000 kg total Performance: unknown Equipment and design features: sensors, range unknown; psycommu or quasi-psycommu system; FF (Fixed Flight) Unit, includes Minovsky Flight Unit, can generate beam barrier 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. 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 second use of the I-field (and Minovsky particles in general) was the repulsion of charged plasma and chargeless mega-particles from an I-field surface, which was of use both in power generation and armament technology. An extra plate of armor carried on a mobile suit's arm. While functionally similar to the psycommu system, the bio-computer places less strain on its human operator. According to the official guide of Mobile Suit Gundam, Gundam Century and Gundam Officials, the Minovsky Physics Society, while working on the reactor, encountered a strange electromagnetic wave effect in U.C.0065 within the Minovsky-Ionesco reactor that could not be explained by conventional physics. Individual sections are also automatically deactivated whenever they're in danger of coming into contact with the mobile suit itself. When the pilot grasps the spherical controller, he can use his fingers to operate the individual control switches, while moving the sphere itself to maneuver the mobile suit. The process was first tested on the RX-78-3 "G-3" Gundam, then applied to the original RX-78-2 Gundam, later being added to all future Mobile Suits. Developed by Char Aznable's Neo-Zeon, the Psycoframe allowed a Mobile Suit to be controlled by a Newtype pilot as if it were an extension of their own body, giving it greater response time. 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. 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.
