GNY-002 Gundam Sadalsuud

GNY-002 Gundam Sadalsuud (aka Gundam Sadalsuud, Sadalsuud), is a 2nd generation Gundam and predecessor to GN-002 Gundam Dynames. The unit appears in the side-story Mobile Suit Gundam 00P and later in Mobile Suit Gundam 00F as GNY-002F Gundam Sadalsuud Type F.

Technology & Combat Characteristics
Sadalsuud overall is a experimental advanced reconnaissance unit. Its customized as a testbed for an array of sensor technologies; sensors were installed in multiple locations across the unit. To accommodate the sensors, effective armor and equipped armaments are reduced to a bare minimum.

The installed GN Drive and related devices are similar in design to GNY-001 Gundam Astraea, however, the lower rear vernier thrusters serves as a design basis for GN-002 Gundam Dynames. The revolvable equipment dock on the unit's left shoulder is a prototype to that used in the Dynames. Other features include movable panels attached to the front skirt and a chest sensor located upon the left breast. The purpose of the sensor bar on the right shoulder is presently unknown.

Armaments

 * Revolve Bazooka
 * Primary armament, a multi-purpose physical-round firearm with a revolver-style cylinder, variable in function based on the type of munitions loaded. Designed to accompany the sensor system as a practical testing device for the unit's aiming capabilities. An on-board sensor is situated beneath the barrel. A rotatable grip is attached to the top surface.


 * GN Beam Sabers
 * For close range combat, Sadalsuud has two beam sabers. Located on the rear thrusters, on the outer edge of each.

System Features

 * Sensor Shield
 * Its official designation unknown, a shield-like device normally secured to a revolvable dock on the unit's left shoulder, with movable panels attached at either side of the sensor plate in the middle of the outwardly-faced surface. A larger cylindrical sensor is located in the compartment furthest from the shoulder, used for the imaging of regions outside the effective reach of the unit's frontally-oriented fixed scan range.
