MSN-001A1 Delta Plus

The Delta Plus is a prototype transformable mobile suit which appears in the Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn novel and OVA.

Technology and Combat Characteristics
A variable mobile suit developed by Anaheim Electronics and supplied to the Nahal Argama after the loss of most of its MS complement in combat against the Kshatriya. An all-purpose attack mobile suit that can reenter the atmosphere unassisted and is also capable of atmospheric flight. Because it is a nonstandard prototype, it is difficult to place in a regular military unit, so it was sent to the Nahal Argama, which has numerous such unusual machines.

Beam rifle
The standard armament of Mobile suits is a beam rifle powered by a rechargeable energy cap. If the energy cap runs out of energy it can be replaced with a fresh one.

History
It is based on the MSN-001 Delta Gundam, a transformable MS designed during the Gryps Conflict that, because of problems with insufficient frame strength, was completed as the non-transforming MSN-00100 Hyaku Shiki. CG models of the Delta Gundam exist on the net, though it was never built. While Anaheim Electronics was trying various approaches to develop a production model of the Zeta series as a transformable MS, it also simultaneously conducted a reinvestigation of the shelved Delta plan and created the MSN-001A1 Delta Plus as a result. It is said that a few units of the Delta Plus were produced as a mass production prototype. Equipped with beam rifle, beam saber, vulcan gun and shield.
