Satellite Cannon

The Satellite Cannon is a powerful weapon developed by the United Nations Earth during the 7th Space War, and outfitted to there latest mobile suit, the Gundam X. While the firing systems and weapons system is mounted on the Gundam X the power source for the Satellite Cannon is located on the moon at D.O.M.E. and requires a Newtype to register the unit before it can be operated. Once registered the Gundam can activated a laser circuit at any time that the moon is in sight, connected it to the charger. A microwave pulse is then sent along the laser circuit's path and into the collection fins of the Gundam X. The process takes 4.03 seconds, but once fully charged the Satellite Cannon can deliever enough power to destroy a space colony.

Other units outfited with this weapon are the GX-Bit mobile suit, and the automated defense system G-Bit D.O.M.E. mobile suits. During the After War era, the Gundam Double X is outfited with two Satellite Cannons, doubleing the destructive output of the weapon.
