STH-05 Hyakuren

The STH-05 Hyakuren (百錬) is a mobile suit featured in the Mobile Suit Gundam IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS television series.

Technology & Combat Characteristics
The Hyakuren is a production-type mobile suit used by Teiwaz and its subsidiaries. It is based on the design of a high output machine that was designed during the late stages of the Calamity War. Unlike the mobile suits used by Gjallarhorn, the Hyakuren uses Ahab Reactors that was made from ancient times, as such it cannot be said to be a machine that was produced completely by Teiwaz. This is also partly due to the fact that Gjallarhorn has a monopoly on Ahab Reactor technology in the present day. Nevertheless, it remains an important achievement as it is a non-Gjallarhorn frame that was completed in recent years. Currently only 44 units have been produced, and the fact that it has not entered mass production is a testament to the difficulty of the development process. It is considered to be a symbol of Teiwaz in the Outer Sphere.

All the machines made so far operates primarily in the asteroid belt and debris region and are equiped with heavy armor. The suit's performance is strong at close combat and its weapons are designed to strike a balance between ranged and close combat. It is a general purpose machine that is unhindered by tough environments such as the debris region.
