AEU-05G AEU Hellion Ground Type

AEU-05G AEU Hellion Ground Type is one of the mass produced suits seen in the anime Mobile Suit Gundam 00 and featured in the side story series Mobile Suit Gundam 00N.

Technology & Combat Characteristics
The PMC Trust employs the AEU-05G Hellion Ground Type with the PMC colors and custom chest plate. The Terrorist variations are usually a custom paint job and variations in weaponry.

The optional weaponry of the linear shield is used to capture units. The linear shield creates a powerful magnetic filed that pulls any matter. This feature was used in Gundam Capture Operation in season 1 episode 15 when AEU used a group of Hellions to capture GN-005 Gundam Virtue.

Armaments

 * Linear Rifle
 * A rifle that fires electromagnetically-accelerated live rounds and was one of the most advanced weapons available before the introduction of beam weaponry.


 * Sonic Blade
 * The standard melee weapon of the AEU's mobile suits. A sonic blade is a folding dagger-like weapon that incorporates a high-frequency oscillating blade. The vibrations of the oscillating blade greatly increase the weapon's cutting capabilities. The weapon has been known to cause pain to the ears of nearby people not properly protected.


 * Defense Rod
 * A standard defensive feature of AEU and Union mobile suits. The defense rod is a rotating rod usually connected to the elbow joint of the mobile suits left arm. The rod is capable of deflecting certain physical rounds such as bullets from a machine gun and in some cases a shot from a beam rifle by generating plasma field.


 * Missile Pod
 * The AEU Hellion Ground Type mounts two missile pods on the knees of the unit.


 * 105mm Linear Gun


 * Linear Shield
