[20][21] AMBAC works by leveraging Isaac Newton's Third Law of Motion (when there's an action there is an equal and opposite reaction) with regard to inertia to effect changes in direction. An extra plate of armor carried on a mobile suit's arm. Although its full capabilities are unknown, its primary purpose was to allow a Newtype pilot to more easily interface with his mobile suit via mental commands. When under the influence of the system, the mobile suit's visor glows red and all of its exhaust vents glow yellow. 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 . 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, in the weightless environment of space, the centrifugal force produced within a rotating cylinder can be used to simulate Earth's gravity. After the One Year War, the material is further refined by renegade Principality of Zeon soldiers at the asteroid base Axisand later given to Anaheim Electronics. Welcome to r/Gundam! This allowed the Pegasus-class to enter and exit earth's atmosphere and to fly while inside the atmosphere. While early mobile suits use solid-fuel motors for maneuvering, later models often use liquid-fuel rockets for better performance. Which one you would use if you're to make your own mobile suit/armor/doll? Two leaders of the Jupiter Empire, Crux Dogatie and Callisto's Shadow, upload their minds into bio brains, allowing them to continue fighting and piloting Mobile Suits even after the deaths of their physical bodies. Thus, an unlimited number of copies of the user's mind can be made, allowing for an immortality of will, if not consciousness as well. Thanks to his massive intellect and high . Paptimus Scirocco's custom-made mobile suit PMX-003 The O is also equipped with this device as is Judau Ashta's MSZ-010 ZZ Gundam. A design concept conceived in the early UC 120s through the development of the Formula 91 Gundam. A new type of cockpit display, typically used in conjunction with a linear floating seat. This field has difficulty permeating conductive materials like metal, water, and plasma, and it exerts a repulsive force against mega particles. It provides a type of sacrificial protection against any type of beam weapon. The Minovsky-Ionesco reactor was named after its fictional inventors, Dr. Y.T. The Minovsky physics is the fundamental technological advancement in the Universal Century series, as all Beam weaponry (including the lightsaber-like Beam Sabers), nuclear technology and defensive measures are based upon this fictional physics. Comment. This is the principle used in the space colonies, and smaller centrifugal devices are sometimes installed in spacecraft like the assault carrier White Base. Added to a layer of armor to increase durability. For example, if we place a person in a micro-gravity environment where friction is negligible (i.e. 150K subscribers in the Gundam community. The exposed power cables seen on some Zeon mobile suits, such as the Zaku II series, are part of the fluid pulse system, connecting the reactor to each joint. 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 Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor: : Pilot Only, Cockpit on Chest: : Nanomachine Infused Gundanium Alloy: ; : Relum Dominatus; Field Imperium; Deus ex Machina (Imperator and Centurio Tria only) ; (Centurio) Blade Luminarium; Launcher Geminus (Centurio Auxilius) 3 x Wing Unit Blade Luminarium . This reactor was "radical" due to the fact that it was the first "clean" nuclear reactor, emitting zero neutron radiation. This super-efficient design was only a fifth as large as an equivalently powerful Minovsky-Ionesco reactor; for this reason, it was adopted for use on mobile suits as the standard power plant. CP-01 Buster Sword (Newtype Series) Creation Particle Research (Newtype Series) Creation Particles Research (GS:E) Crystal Field Generator. Ginias Sahalin's Apsaras II featured a perfected Minovsky craft system that was much more stable in atmospheric flight. 9.2 Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor 9.3 Energy capacitor (E-CAP) 9.4 Minovsky Craft System 10 Mobile Suit Technology - Unique control/interface systems 10.1 Psycommu System 10.2 Quasi-Psycommu System 10.3 Half Control System 10.4 Neo-Psycommu System 10.5 EXAM System 10.6 HADES 10.7 n_i_t_r_o System 10.8 Psyco-control system 10.9 Combat system According to Gundam Officials, in the latter half of the One Year War, Zeon mobile suits suffered heavy damage from Earth Federation Forces' beam weaponry-equipped mobile suits. 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 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. A new kind of man-machine interface which allows machines to be controlled by human thoughts. E-cap technology appears outside of UC continuity in MS Saga: A New Dawn. Once their propellant is exhausted, the sturm thruster units are detached and discarded as dead weight. However, due to its nature of ablating when defending against great heat, ABC can only tolerate a few hits to the same spot. 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. They became a normal reference of the serial story and attracted publishers to publish books on them. 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. A unique type of sensor used in the heads of Crossbone Vanguard mobile suits, which consists of a pair of compound sensors installed behind two goggle-like lenses. An I-field is used to deflect enemy mega particle beams. AMBAC works by leveraging Isaac Newton's Third Law of Motion (When there's an action there is an equal and opposite reaction) with regard to inertia to effect changes in direction. OPERATOR: Principality of Zeon 603 Technical Evaluation Unit Mass-Divers The mobile suit's internal cooling systems must also be engaged to deal with the heat that penetrates the air field. (May, 2006, 11th edition). Their research was devoted to the development of a nuclear fusion reactor. At the dawn of the Universal Century, a massive space settlement program is launched to address Earth's energy, environmental, and population problems. This plane is divided into multiple sections, which can be turned on or off as needed to conserve energy. Universal Century technology refers to technology created in the fictional Universal Century timeline of the Gundam anime media mix. The semi-transparent coating is not useful in countering anything other than lasers, thus a new technology has to be developed. Another version of the I-Field Generator but allows the user to redirect incoming beam weapons fire back at targets. Due to its high power requirements, the I-field generator originally could only be installed in large mobile weapons. Also, significant quantities of helium-3 were recently discovered on the moon, although there is certainly much more on Jupiter. The space colony (precisely space habitat) technology in Universal Century is referenced from the real world projects proposed by Gerard K. O'Neill in his book The High Frontier: Human Colonies in Space. It also incorporated an extremely . This reactor, although designed by Dr. T.Y. 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. 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. 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. The machine was codenamed "Icarus" by SNRI who observed the machine fall into the atmosphere of Earth, but it was later discovered that the mobile suit had used its "wings of light" as a shield to protect itself during reentry. An I-field generator consumes a large amount of energy and overheats in around 15-20 minutes. [14] Side 3's colonies are identical in size and shape to the Island 3 design, but doubled the habitable area by removing the large window strips of the Island 3.[15][16][17]. 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. This mechanism has far better fuel efficiency than a thermonuclear rocket engine or a chemical rocket, but due to its relatively low thrust it's best suited for massive, slow-moving objects such as the asteroid Axis. [6], Although fictional technologies seems to carry no real-life significance, these technologies are referred to in almost all of the series of Universal Century. Propellant is the reaction mass used in the rocket engines of mobile suits and other spacecraft. 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. A device that generates lift from shock waves like those produced during atmospheric entry. Numerous shock absorbers are installed throughout a mobile suit's body, and the linear floating seat where the pilot sits is itself mounted on an electromagnetic shock absorber. 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. Add to Favourites. He aspired from his youngest memory to become a scientists. The visual data provided by the mono-eye is supplemented by ten or more secondary cameras, which are distributed around the exterior of the mobile suit. During the One Year War, the researchers of the Flanagan Institute discover that Newtypes emit powerful thoughtwaves - similar to regular brainwaves, but not electrical in nature - which they call psycho-waves. The Federation Forces, meanwhile, concentrate on developing artificially enhanced cyber-Newtypes to operate their psycommu weapons. 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. 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. Thankfully, those with strong wills can overpower the system and determine when it can activate. Instead of the conventional magnetic field, this improved version of the Minovsky-Ionesco reactor used an I-field to confine and compress the reactor fuel, triggering a fusion reaction. The Flanagan Institute goes on to develop a mind-machine interface called the psycommu (psycho-communicator) system, which receives these thoughtwaves and translates them into computer commands. Power Plant: Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor Armaments: Hyper Mega Bazooka Launcher and Arondight Beam Sword Special Armaments: Absorb Shield Special Systems/Feature: Detachable Body Bits 1 Reply LostDepths 1 yr. ago LostDepths's personal Mobile Suit: Primary Color: Yellow Secondary Color: Orange Power Plant: GN Drive (Trans-Am capable) The AMBAC system coordinates movements and micro-movements precisely, allowing a continuous balance and stability without expending reaction mass. However, the system has a number of flaws to it. Each reactor is even further miniaturized A Ata Geta 617 followers More information The need for this process came as the higher-ups realized that, despite the RX-78-2 Gundam's amazingly continued performance, there was one major flaw to it - its pilot, Amuro Ray, whose Newtype abilities were overwhelming the unit. Corodal Carbon. Gundam Officials has collected these information and has presented them alone 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. 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 case of emergency, the inhabitants of a space colony can escape using small spacecraft stored in the colony's outer walls. The idea is simple: "If four limbs can maneuver the unit better than none, why not equip them with 5 or more?" 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. 0050, these space colonies are home to 80% of the human race. [24], According to the timeline deduced by the Gundam Officials, in UC 0071, Zeon researchers created the Minovsky ultracompact fusion reactor. The Minovsky-Ionesco reactor was named after its fictional inventor. 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. In the Universal Century era, most of Earth's electricity supply is provided by solar power stations placed in a satellite orbit around the planet. The Psycoframe is a powerful variation of the psycommu system. The idea is simple the ABC is applied on a piece of cloth instead of the unit itself. However, seeing the horror of the Zabi family's militaristic regime, Minovsky defected back and offered his expertise to the Federation. 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. 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. This substance can be used to seal ruptures in spacecraft and space colony exteriors. 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. These shelf nozzles are movable thrusters attached to the mobile suit's backpack, whose flexibility also allows them to be used for AMBAC maneuvering. This is the primary reason for the birth of the Zeon close-combat weapon: the mobile suit. Thanks to this interference, warfare in the Universal Century era relies heavily on visual sensors, which can be tricked by inflatable decoys. Category:Cosmic Century Technology. A helium-3 atom is fused with a deuterium atom (heavy hydrogen) to form the stable helium-4 and a single proton. This diffraction and polarization process disrupts the electromagnetic waves. At the same time Anaheim Electronics had scavenged the Minovsky Drive from the remains of the Mother Vanguard and used it do design their own mobile suit with a "wings of light" system. In the original show, the magnet coating process has no visible indication. Using this mind-machine interface, Iron Mask can operate the Rafflesia via thought alone, without the use of any conventional levers, pedals, or manual controls. (Birth of Giant Robot - Latest Robotics Engineering birth from Gundam). Active Mass Balance Auto-Control (AMBAC) 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 as said in the Gundam Century and Gundam Officials. 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". An I-field lattice will slowly expand and scatter into space; however, after dense interference it will take approximately 29 days before the region can support normal electromagnetic communication again. Upon reaching its destination, the mass driver's payload can be collected by a giant net known as a mass catcher. [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. 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. Although most units are equipped with beam shields already, the ABC mantle provides stealth compared to the brightly glowing beam shields, which renders the units a visible target. When in direct physical contact, it's also possible to communicate via a contact link. 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. Early beam rifles were either taken back to ships for recharging or simply discarded. 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. The Minovsky-Ionesco reactor was named after its fictional inventor. 0085. 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. Perfect Grade, Master Grade, High Grade Model Instruction Manual, Bandai. In the original Mobile Suit Gundam series, Char Aznable commented that the way to avoid a beam rifle is to avoid its being pointed at you. It is the device that enables the machine the ability to walk like a human being. This reduces the heat from the thermonuclear reaction and reduces the need for coolant and shielding for the fusion reactors. Powerplant: Minovsky type ultracompact fusion reactor, output rated at 1,400 kW Propulsion: rocket thrusters: output unknown; Minovsky craft system: output unknown. Because Sides sometimes share a single Lagrangian point, it is possible to have two Sides in close orbit to one another. RX-105 Gundam which appeared in the same series also equipped the device, however it is fully integrated into its structure. Even in the Universal Century, it remains impossible to artificially nullify or generate gravity. During the One Year War, there were many cases of pilots being wounded in the cockpit while their mobile suits remained relatively intact. Its most ironic flaw is that, because of the massive stress to gives its pilots, a Newtype is the best pilot for the unit. For the most part, AMBAC is invisible to the naked eye, as the shifts are slight. Why? Instead, it uses a cubic lattice of Minovsky particles to push the vessel away from the Earth's surface. [6], Prototypes for the linear seat were installed in the RX-78NT-1 Gundam "Alex" and the RX-78GP03S Gundam "Stamen". A mind control system installed in the MRX-009 Psyco Gundam, which compels its cyber-Newtype pilot to fight in battle. 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. Eventually the Minovsky Craft System design would be overhauled and upgraded into the Minovsky Drive, the first of its kind being built into the ship Mother Vanguard of the Crossbone Vanguard as a system nicknamed the "Sail of Light". Gundam and World War II, Doitsu Suzuki, Kosaido Shuppan. The Gundam Wiki is a FANDOM Anime Community. This extra propellant greatly extends a mobile suit's operating range, and enables it to stay in combat longer. 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. Ultracompact Minovsky Fusion Reactor 0 0120 era. This system is introduced during the One Year War and experimentally employed in the RX-78NT-1 Gundam "Alex", but it doesn't enter mass production until U.C. [8] Bandai (with its branch Sunrise) noticed the tradition and has hired writers to write articles for other Gundam series too. The first MS equipping such a device is RX-104FF Penelope from Hathaway's Flash, which is comprised of the RX-104 Odysseus Gundam combined with its Fixed Flight support unit. While researcher (associate professor in the University of Tsukuba) and media artist Yoichi Ochiai viewed this in the science angle and said that even currently, if computers are not working right, things will get really weak, mixing in analogue in the machine is a correct choice and the setting is excellent. 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. According to Gundam Sentinel Special Edition, the beam smart gun is designed to bend the output beam by up to 20 degrees. Another weakness is that the I-field generator has an operating limit. Although Minovsky particle interference does have some effect at infra-red wavelengths, enemy warships and mobile armors still register as heat sources. The flying armor functions as a wave rider, allowing the Gundam Mk-II to enter Earth's atmosphere from orbit, and also serves as a hovercraft once it reaches the ground. Due to this, the military use of Minovsky particles ushered in a new era of close-range combat. These tanks use a two-layered construction, with one layer containing propellant, and the other holding extra coolant. [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. 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]. 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. Semi-transparent coating protect the unit by having multiple layers all reflecting a certain wavelength of light and thus effectively reduces the energy of different laser weapons. New MS Encyclopedia, ISBN / 4-89189-050-9, Bandai, 1st Oct, 1988. propellant tank. The RX-77-3F was the highest-performance iteration & was comparable performance wise RGM-79SC GM Sniper Customs, incorporating lessons learned from all . This super-efficient design was only a fifth as large as an equivalently powerful Minovsky-Ionesco reactor, allowing the reactor to be mounted within the mobile suit instead of an external backpack. 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. The nuclear equation was: (energy released: 18.35 MeV) The linear seat technology was invented to address this issue. Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor: GENERATOR OUTPUT: ARMOR MATERIAL: Super Hard Steel Alloy: TOTAL THRUST: CREW: Pilot only (in standard cockpit in chest) MANUFACTURER: Zeonic DEVELOPED FROM: RGM-79 GM FIRST DEPLOYMENT: November, 0079 U.C. Another is the X3 I-field, a special, miniaturized I-field Generator built into the hands of the XM-X3 Crossbone Gundam X-3 and later the XM-X1 Crossbone Gundam X-1 Kai Kai "Skull Heart". A method of preserving one's personality and memories developed by the Jupiter Empire. The system is similar in principle to the momentum wheel system used in present day satellites, though obviously more complex. It emits high-energy Minovsky particles to form a blade-shaped I-field (via manipulation of electromagnetic fields), and then fills this I-field shell with superheated Minovsky particle plasma to produce an effective cutting blade. 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. This became known as the "Minovsky Effect". Cyclotron Power Core. These devices, distributed across the machine's outer surface, are used for changing direction and performing fine movements - or attitude control, in technical jargon. These devices give the mobile suit unparalleled versatility, and their built-in touch sensors provide immediate feedback for precise operation. 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. When these particles are scattered in high densities, they render radio communication impossible. 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 In this fashion, the reactor provides the mobile suit with an abundant supply of electricity. The E-CAP stores Minovsky particles in a compressed, high-energy state, just short of fusing into mega particles. Thus, at low altitudes it is possible to generate an I-field cushion between the underside of a vessel and the ground, yielding a gravity-countering buoyancy. This reactor was "radical" because it was the first "clean" nuclear reactor, emitting zero neutron radiation. Thus, they are immune to effects of N-jammers, as fusion reactors lack free neutron to disrupt! These issues are addressed with the development of the energy capacitor, which makes it possible to create compact beam weapons with greatly reduced power and energy requirements. However, it should not be considered a complete brain clone of Amuro, as the bio brains of Dogatie and Callisto's Shadow were. 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.
