![]() ![]() Wing Gundam was built to self-destruct should the pilot choose to. When the antennas and main cameras do not suffice, the Gundam's secondary eye, comprised of the large jewel on its chest, is used to gather visual and radio-wave data. In this form, Wing Gundam is capable of high-speed flight, though it requires extra boosters in order to launch into space.įocused on data gathering. When transforming into Bird Mode, the Wing Gundam's shoulder armor folds down, the arms spin around so that the claw-like landing gear face down, and the legs fold up at the knees with the feet pointing backwards, the backpack and wings move lower allowing the combined shield and Buster Rifle to attach over the Gundam's head, forming the nose, and the Gundam's wings spread open. Heero uses one of the Drei Zwerg to defend the Sanc Kingdom and the other during the battle at Luxembourg. When not in use, the Drei Zwerg can be mounted on Wing's arms, resembling a hawk's talons when the mobile suit is in Bird Mode. However, they can only be used once each in this combined form as they are not made of Gundanium Alloy, and hence cannot withstand the weapon's power. This combined form is known as Drei Zwerg Buster. Although it can function on its own as a weapon, it can also be mounted on Wing's Buster Rifle to increase its destructive power. 195, after encountering the Proto Zero, Heero creates imperfect replicas of the Drei Zwerg for Wing Gundam. The Drei Zwerg is a combination of three identical component rifles known as Messer Zwerg, which can be used paired or individually. Data of the weapon was stored in the ZERO System by Doctor J in A.C. The beam saber is typically wielded in Wing's right hand, which forces the Gundam to discard the Buster Rifle temporarily or attach it to the back of its waist.Ī powerful beam rifle-type weapon that was originally designed for the Wing Gundam Proto Zero. A pair of beam sabers are stored in Wing's shield. Due to the use of the highly durable Gundanium Alloy, Wing Gundam's beam saber has a high output that is not attenuated even in water. The beam saber is the standard close-combat weapon for many mobile suits, it generates a blade-shaped beam to melt and cut through enemy's armor. ![]() In Bird Mode, it is docked with the Buster Rifle and mounted on the backpack to form a nosecone. The shield can be mounted on the left arm and/or held with the left hand. Made of high-strength Gundanium Alloy, it can also be used as a ramming weapon. They are covered when not in use, similar to Wing Zero's machine cannons. They are capable of rapid fire thanks to internal drum structure. Located on the shoulders, the two cannons are short to medium range weapons. As it is not powered by the Gundam's reactor, unlike Wing Zero's Twin Buster Rifle, it is usable by other mobile suits as well. The rifle can be reloaded with spare energy cartridges through a break-action similar to a double-barrel shotgun. ![]() The beam itself has a composite structure, consisting of high-speed, highly penetrative beam in the center surrounded by a low-speed but highly destructive particle beam. However, by adjusting the output, the affected area can be altered. The emitted beam ionizes the surrounding atmosphere, creating a violent plasma vortex with a radius of 150 meters centered on the optical axis of the beam and a scorching torrent of several tens of kilometers. Its energy cartridges allow it to fire three powerful beam shots, each comparable in power to a battleship's main guns and capable of destroying a small group of mobile suits and ships. Wing Gundam's signature weapon, usable in MS mode and Bird Mode. By transforming into Bird Mode, Wing Gundam's mobility and movement range are increased further, allowing it to conduct operations that other Gundams could not. Even in outer space, the wing units exhibit high attitude control capability using both AMBAC and built-in vernier thrusters. These units not only generate lift, but can also change the aerodynamic characteristics of the mobile suit through the movements of their individual panels, supporting a range of speeds from stall to hypersonic. The major contributor to Wing's mobility is the pair of wing units on the backpack. However, the " ZERO System" interface (which had technical problems) and other parts considered to be excessive were not included, and the skills of the pilot are needed to make up for the shortfall. Like its predecessor, the Wing Gundam can transform into an alternate flight form known as "Bird Mode" and has a powerful Buster Rifle as part of its armaments. Out of the five original Gundams created for Operation Meteor, Wing Gundam is the most well-balanced in terms of abilities and bears the closest resemblance to their common ancestor: the XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Proto Zero. ![]()
