The AMBAC Space Pod is a prototype machine that appears in the Mobile Suit Gundam MS 2003 Complete Works book.
Design & Development[]
A prototype aircraft built by Zeonic to test the AMBAC system. The space pod was equipped with working limbs and a mono-eye for the AMBAC system. AMBAC is an abbreviation for Active Mass Balance Auto Control, which uses the reaction generated by moving a part of a movable limb at high speed in space to control the attitude of the entire vehicle. This reduced the consumption of propellants such as verniers and thrusters. By swinging the arms with an acceleration of more than 100G at the tip and igniting the thrusters at the right time, it takes less than 3 seconds to make a 180 degree turn in space.
