GNX-903VW Brave (Commander Test Type)

GNX-Y903VW Brave (Commander Test Type) (aka Brave), is the successor unit to the GNX-U02X Masurao and featured in Mobile Suit Gundam 00 The Movie: A Wakening of the Trailblazer. This specific unit is a customised Brave piloted by Graham Aker.

Technology & Combat Characteristics
The new unit is a next generation Flag, installed with the latest in Federation-developed GN Tech. Unlike the original (a single customized Flag with the flight unit replaced with a GN Drive Tau), the new Flag is a pre-mass production model. The Brave's design and technology is based on the GNX-U02X Masurao. The two GN Tau Drives are mounted on the waist binders similar to the GNX-U02X Masurao and GNX-Y901TW Susanowo, while the standard units only possess one GN Drive Tau on the back. The standard and commander types are visually similar except the left horn on the standard type's head is shorter than the other, while the commander type's horns are both even. Unlike the GNX-U02X Masurao and GNX-Y901TW Susanowo, however, the Tau Drives' GN Particles are emitted directly from the Drives. The Brave is developed by both the AEU and the Union team of engineers and is currently in a testing period.

It is currently unknown whether the two GN Drive Taus equipped on this mobile suit utilize a Twin Drive System or are simply individual Drives. In the first full-length trailer, given that GN Particle Rings form after the suit transforms and accelerates away (in a fashion similar to the GN-0000 00 Gundam), it has been suggested that a Twin Drive System is indeed present. However, this is an assumption and should not be considered canon.

GN Beam Rifle
Brave is shown to carry a GN Beam Rifle, which doubles as the unit's forward section in flight mode.It is currently unknown if the Brave's GN Beam Rifle can create a GN Beam Saber for CQC combat purposes.
