The '''F90W Gundam F90 Warbird Type''' (aka '''Gundam F90 W-Type''') is a variant of the [[F90 Gundam F90]] featured in the [[F90 A to Z PROJECT]]. ==Technology & Combat Characteristics== The F90W Gundam F90 W-Type is a version of the Gundam F90 equipped with the W-Type [[Mission Packs|Mission Pack]], which enables the Gundam F90 to transform into a Flight Mode. It was constructed to test the highly experimental [[List of Universal Century Weapons#Minovsky Drive|Trial Minovsky Drive System]], which look like a pair of wings mounted to rear skirt armor. In addition, the W-Type also mounts additional modules to the backpack and shoulders, which fold forward in Flight Mode, to enclose the Gundam F90's head and make the overall airframe more aerodynamic. A beam cannon is enclosed in the nosecone giving the W-Type some combat ability in Flight Mode. When the Minovsky Drive is operating beams appear from the wings as Minovsky Particles are expelled, propelling the W-Type forward. Although it can be operated in Mobile Suit form, the W-Type was chiefly a Mission Pack exclusively for testing the Minovsky Drive technology in Flight Form, and as such it has additional parts on the forearms and front skirt armor that function as landing gear. ==Armaments== ;*60mm Vulcan Gun :A pair of shell-firing weapon built into the head, they can not be used while in Flight Mode because the head is enclosed in the nosecone. Though not powerful, its high rate of fire meant it was employed to intercept enemy missiles/units, as warning shots, and to destroy lightly armored targets. ;*Beam Saber :The beam saber is a small device held in the mobile suit's hands when deployed and is powered by a rechargeable energy capacitor. It emits high-energy Minovsky particles to form a blade-shaped I-field (via manipulation of electromagnetic fields), and then fills this I-field shell with super-heated Minovsky particle plasma to produce an effective cutting blade. The F90 W-Type has two beam sabers stored in recharge racks on the modified backpack. ;*Beam Cannon :A beam cannon stored within the nosecone mounted within the backpack of the W-Type Mission Pack, it is inside of a hatch that must open to fire. It can only be fired in while the W-Type is in Flight Mode. ;*Beam Rifle :The standard Beam Rifle of the Gundam F90, it has more power than other beam rifles of the time. It uses an E-Pack system, and the E-Pack, inserted into the rear of the rifle, becomes the rifle's stock. Spare E-Packs can be carried on the side skirt armor's hardpoints, but with the rear skirt armor's weapon rack occupied by the Trial Minovsky Drive equipment, the rifle cannot be stowed on there when not in use. ==History== === [[Mobile Suit Gundam F90: Fastest Formula|Mobile Suit Gundam F90 Fastest Formula]] === There is only a few records regarding Gundam F90 Warbird Type since most of the data are either classified or lost in time, However in U.C. 0116 a prototype unit called Gundam F90 "Prototype Minovsky Drive Test Configuration" was deployed to test the durability of [[List of Universal Century Weapons|Minovsky Drive]] technology alongside the [[F89 Gundam F89]] and [[RGM-89ST2 ST-Gun|RGM-89ST1 ST Gun Type 1]] as escorts. Since the technology was still at its infancy, the test unit was propende at having malfunction and instability issues, therefore in order to prevent the unit from total destruction, the creator of the Mission Pack [[Otis Arkins|Otis Arkin]] tells the pilot to release the excess output creating the iconic "[[List of Universal Century Weapons|Wings of Light]]" phenomenon. Luckily the pilot survived the incident but the [[F90 Gundam F90|Gundam F90 Unit 2]] suffers a lot of damage, which forced the unit to be repaired for some time.<ref name=":0">Gundam F90 Fastest Formula, Volume 7, Chapter 27, Pg 140-158.</ref> Later the F90 W pack was integrated to EFF 2nd Experimental Battlegroup dubbed the Fastest Formula Corps (FF) and serves as one of the crucial mission packs for the FF, and in the end it was integrated as one of the mission packs for [[F90 Gundam F90|Gundam F90 Unit 3]] dubbed the [[F90N Gundam F90 Next Type|Gundam F90 FF Type]] throughout the"Trimurti Incident".<ref>Gundam F90 Fastest Formula, Vol 9, Chapter 37.</ref> Later in U.C. 0122 the Minovsky Drive technology have been refined and the Gundam F90 W Type was assigned and deployed to [[Earth Federation Forces|Earth Federation Force]]'s Anti EF Unit piloted by [[Bergh Squelette]] in [[F90 Gundam F90|F90 Gundam F90 Unit 1]]. The F90 W Type itself first known deployed in combat while it tries to defend an EFF Spaceport from [[Mars Zeon|Oldsmobile]] Aerial Forces attack. During the battle the F90 W Type performed very well and more stable than its previous test performance, however it was nearly destroyed when a [[OMSM-07RF RF Z'Gok|RF Z'Gok]] suddenly appears from the sky. Luckily Bergh transformed the Gundam in an instant to MS Mode and manage destroy the RF Z'Gok with it's claw unit.<ref>Gundam F90 Fastest Formula, Volume 6, Prologue, Pg 019-030.</ref> After this battle it is unknown exactly what happened to the Mission Pack itself, but it's possible that SNRI done a lot of field testing to refine the technology even further, and eventually based on the developmental data led to the creation of [[F99 Record Breaker]]. The technology from the F99 defined the future conflicts in the Universal Century history. == Variant == ;*F90 Gundam F90 (Prototype Minovsky Drive Test Configuration) :Featured in the manga [[Mobile Suit Gundam F90: Fastest Formula]] Vol 7. This is early version of F90 Warbird mission pack that is equipped with [[F90R Gundam F90 Reconnoiter Type|F90 R type]] arm camera, Modified [[F90H Gundam F90 Hover Type|H Type]] waist booster, [[F90D Gundam F90 Destroid Type|D Type]] leg booster alongside other unknown equipment to capture field testing data. Since this is the prototype version the Minovsky Drive technology still unstable and can't endure more than 10 seconds of sustained flight, which resulting in a uncontrollable thrust power that almost killed the pilot. <ref name=":0" /> ==Gallery== === Linearts === <gallery hideaddbutton="true"> File:F90 W Type Front.png|Front view File:F90 W Type Rear.png|Rear view File:F90 W Type WR Mode.png|Flight mode </gallery> === Manga === === [[Mobile Suit Gundam F90: Fastest Formula]] === <gallery hideaddbutton="true"> File:F90FF 6 F90W Intro.jpg|Gundam F90 Warbird Pack Reveal (F90FF, Vol 6, Prologue) File:F90FF 6 F90W Mega Beam Launcher.jpg|Firing the Beam Cannon File:F90FF 6 F90W Ambush.jpg|Ambushed by RF Z'Gok File:F90FF 6 F90W Transform.jpg|Transforming to MS Mode File:F90FF 6 F90W MS Mode.jpg|MS Mode File:F90FF 6 F90W Claw Attack.jpg|Destroying the RF Z'Gok with the Claw unit File:F90FF 7 F90W Test Type.jpg|Prototype Minovsky Drive Test Configuration (F90FF Vol 7, Chapter 27) File:F90FF 7 F90W Test Type Ignition.jpg|Igniting the Minovsky Drive File:F90FF 7 F90W Test Type Damaged.jpeg|Heavily damaged alongside Gundam F89 </gallery> ===Gunpla=== <gallery hideaddbutton="true"> MG Mission Pack W-Type.jpg|[[Master Grade|MG]] 1/100 Mission Pack W-Type (2021): box art File:MG F90 W Type Promo Sheet 1.jpg|MG F90 Warbird Type Promo Sheets (1) File:MG F90 W Type Promo Sheet 2.jpg|MG F90 Warbird Type Promo Sheets (3) File:MG F90 W Type Promo Sheet 3.jpg|MG F90 Warbird Type Promo Sheets (3) File:MG F90 W Type Front & Rear View.jpg|Front & Rear View File:MG F90 W Type WR Mode.jpg|Flight Mode (Note the wings of light) File:MG F90 W Type Claw Landing Gear.jpg|Extra gimmicks </gallery> ==Notes and Trivia== [[File:F90W Test Type Comparison 2.jpg|thumb|Protoype Minovsky Drive Test Ver (Note: the reused parts from [[F90E Gundam F90 Electronic Type|F90 E-Type]] original version in Red Arrow)]] * Some parts of the F90 Prototype Minovsky Drive Test Configuration, reused several parts from F90 E-Type Original version. ** The parts used for this configuration s the shoulder, and waist parts. ==References== <gallery hideaddbutton="true"> File:F90 W Type Info Sheet.jpg|Information sheet (F90FF, Vol 6, Pg 040) File:A to Z F90 W Type.png|Profile from F90 A to Z Project website </gallery> ==External links== {{F90AZ-Mecha}} *[https://bandai-hobby.net/site/f90project/ Official F90 A to Z Project website (Japanese)]
