MAN-03 Braw Bro

This is a fictional weapon from the Gundam anime series.

MAN-03 (MAN-X3) Braw Bro
In the early stages of the One Year War, the Principality of Zeon's Flanagan Institute had been searching throughout the colonies of Side 3 and Earth for Newtypes, and thus began a program to design and manufacture weapons for Newtype use. The first of which was the MAN-03 (MAN-X3) Braw Bro. It was a mobile armor that was the size of a small battleship. It has the distinction of being the first mobile weapon (and certainly not the last) to be equipped with the psychic communicator "psycommu" system for piloting the MA and controlling the only weapons that the Braw Bro was equipped with: four wire-guided units mounting two barrel mega particle guns (top and bottom spars) or single mega particle guns (starboard and port spars). Since Minovsky particles don't interfere with Newtype's brainwaves, a new type of attack, the "all-range" attack; in which the pods attack from different directions, regardless of distance or interference; was born. The Braw Bro was also designed to separate into different blocks so that any test data could be preserved.

A prototype of the Braw Bro was tested near Side 6, piloted by Simus Al Baharkov. It was destroyed by the crew of the SCV-70 White Base. A second unit was constructed based on the recovered data from the original unit, and the Newtype pilot came in the form of Zeon Lieutenant Challia Bull, a Jupitris transport ship captain that had exhibited Newtype abilities. He piloted the unit in a field test against the White Base in the Corregidor Shoal Zone, but the unit was destroyed by Amuro Ray's RX-78-2 Gundam mobile suit.
