MS-09R4 Psycommu Rick Dom

The MS-09R4 (MS-09RN) MS-09S Psycommu Rick Dom "Schnee Weiss" ("Schnee Weiss" translates into "Snow White") is a psycommu-equipped mobile suit featured in the series Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Deleted Affair: Portrait Of Young Comet.

History
Based off of the concept of the MAN-08 Elmeth, the design called for a bit-equipped mobile suit. A substantially renovated Rick Dom would be used for the base, Although installing the large psycommu control unit would result in a dramatic increase in the unit's mass and weight. The Psycommu Rick Dom unit itself is not equipped with bits, rather, an rearming device called a "Bit Carrier" is a launched from a tender, used to reload Bits into the Funnel Pack attached to the Schnee Weiss's back. To compensate for the extra weight, the Psycommu Rick Dom was fitted with redesigned legs and several thrusters more than the standard Rick Dom, and for emergency purposes, the large Funnel back pack and shoulder armor could be purged. Although improved output of the attitude control thrusters was 120% better than before, not enough effort was made to improve maneuverability, as such, the Schnee Weiss was unable to achieve the intended purpose with the Psycommu system. The test pilot of this unit was Haman Karn.
