The Flyarrow is a jet fighter that appears in the anime Mobile Suit Gundam.
Technology & Combat Characteristics
It is a double-seat aircraft with three jet engines and canard wings. It is armed with a pair of nose-mounted Vulcans. During the One Year War, it was deployed at Jaburo base and other locations, but it is already obsolete and not frequently used.
Armaments
- Vulcan Gun
History
One unit crash-lands at Point 305 (the island where Cucuruz Doan is hiding out). Doan chooses to remove the Vulcans so that it cannot be used in combat. The White Base receives an automatic distress signal, and a FF-X7 Core Fighter with Amuro Ray aboard heads for it, but the two crew members are strapped into their seats with wounds, and Amuro's first aid efforts are in vain as they die.
In the manga "MS BOYS", one of the machines can be seen mixed in with Fly Manta's troops attacking multiple Gaw near Volgograd. In the manga "Gundam Legacy", two aircraft belonging to the Port Moresby base are assigned to night patrols.
Trivia
- A modified design of the Flyarrow is reused in Metal Armor Dragonar, two vertical stabilizers changed to one.
