Revision as of 16:05, 3 April 2011

GNY-003F Gundam Abulhool Type F (aka Gundam Abulhool Type F, Gundam Abulhool, Abulhool), is the upgraded version of the original GNY-003 Gundam Abulhool, predecessor to GN-003 Gundam Kyrios, and part of the second generation Gundams in Mobile Suit Gundam 00F. The unit is piloted by Fon Spaak.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

Fighter Mode

Gundam Abulhool's fighter mode resembles to a F-22 Raptor, fast and highly maneuverable. Abulhool alone has only GN Vulcans for dog-fighting, but it can carry missile pods (seen in the manga). The nose of its fighter form has head for visual sensors.
One feature that the Abulhool possesses that makes it unique among the Gundam units is that it has a secondary propulsion system that utilizes plasma jets instead of the standard GN vernier. This is likely a feature installed to help hide the fact that Abulhool is a Gundam when in fighter jet mode.

MS Mode

Abulhool's melee combat capabilities are limited to only kicks and relying on it's weapon(s) packages for defense/offense. Abulhool is the only mobile unit with two heads. The chest area of Abulhool is also the nose in its fighter jet form, there the extra head can provide additional sensory data for the pilot to use.

Armaments

  • GN Vulcan
These weapons are smaller cousins to the GN Beam weapon. Typically locations include head and wrist mounted system, both ensuring a wide field of fire. Purely secondary weapons, they are used to engage soft targets, and in a defensive capacity.
  • GN Missiles
The Abulhool is capable of being equipped with the same three-tube GN missile launcher that Kyrios uses. The missile launchers are mounted to the underside of the wings.

System Features

History

Azadistan

While Dynames/Lockon was engaging Graham Aker in the Azadistan desert, Fon Spaak was dispatched with Abulhool to provide support. Abulhool had a brief encounter with Ali Al Saachez, but didn't fight him and flew off.

Notes

  • Abulhool is Arabic in origin from abu elhool literally meaning "father of fear" used to refer to the Great Sphinx.
  • The mobile suit mode of the GNY-003 bears some similarity to the GERWALK moke of the variable fighters of the Macross franchise.
