The heavily damaged Gundam Astray Gold Frame Amatsu (renamed Amatsu Mina Custom to distinguish it from its predecessor) was recovered and repairs to its internal structure resulting in approximately 30% improvement in specifcations. Weapons wise, the Astray Gold Frame Amatsu Mina Custom is nearly identical to the former [[MBF-P01-ReAMATU Gundam Astray Gold Frame Amatsu]], although there are some differences. The original two beam sabers have been removed and are replaced by two physical "Totsuka no Tsurugi" sabers, which are stored on the hips. Additionally, a single retractable "Tsumuha no Tachi" triple claw is mounted on the left forearm of the suit. Lastly, Amatsu Mina Custom features a perfected "Maga no Ikutachi"(which means lterally "Living Sword Of Evil), which can drain the battery of any nearby mobile suit. The Amatsu Mina Custom is capable of atmospheric flight, as evidenced when it was used to defend a town from ZAFT forces (A town girl who witnessed the incident described the Amatsu Mina Custom as a "black angel").

Revision as of 04:53, 20 May 2013

The MBF-P01-Re2<AMATU> Astray Gold Frame Amatu Mina Custom is the renovated form of the late Rondo Gina Sahaku's MBF-P01-ReAMATU Gundam Astray Gold Frame Amatsu from the manga series Gundam SEED Astray. It is mainly piloted by Rondo Mina Sahaku.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

The heavily damaged Gundam Astray Gold Frame Amatsu (renamed Amatsu Mina Custom to distinguish it from its predecessor) was recovered and repairs to its internal structure resulted in approximately 30% improvement in specifcations. Weapons wise, the Astray Gold Frame Amatsu Mina Custom is nearly identical to the former MBF-P01-ReAMATU Gundam Astray Gold Frame Amatsu, although there are some new additions. A pair of physical "Totsuka no Tsurugi" sabers are added and stored on the hips. Additionally, a single retractable "Tsumuha no Tachi" triple claw is mounted on the left forearm of the suit. The Amatsu Mina Custom is capable of atmospheric flight, as evidenced when it was used to defend a town from ZAFT forces (A town girl who witnessed the incident described the Amatsu Mina Custom as a "black angel").

In CE 73, Yoon Sefan developed the "Okitsu no Kagami" equipment to booster Amatsu Mina Custom's defensive capability. When equipped with this equipment, the "Totsuka no Tsurugi" sabers are removed, while the triple claw is replaced with the "Okitsu no Kagami" offense/defense beam shield system. This system mounts a single beam shield on the end of a pole for added protection of the suit. Although the equipment is developed for defensive purposes, the beam shield emitter can also form a beam dagger, which can be fired and recovered through a cable. It is equipped with four rocket thrusters that can propel the Okitsu no Kagami weapon towards a target.

Armaments

  • "Igelstellung" 75 mm Multi-Barrel CIWS
The "Igelstellung" 75mm Multi-Barrel CIWS are head mounted Vulcan guns that are used to shoot down missles and also lightly armoured vehicles. It is ineffective against heavy amoured vehicles.
  • "Maga no Ikutachi" Energy Absorption Claw
The Gold Frame Amatsu Mina Custom inherits the "Maga no Ikutachi" energy absorption claws from the original Gold Frame Amatsu, which are mounted on the back of the suit. These "claws" can drain energy from the batteries of enemy mobile suits through the use of colloid technology, weakening them while at the same time recharging Gold Frame Amatsu's own battery.
  • "Magashira no Hoko" Harpoon
Like the original Gold Frame Amatsu, the Amatsu Mina Custom is equipped with a pair "Magashira no Hoko" harpoons, which are equipped with Phase Shift technology and thus can penetrate virtually any armor, then be retracted by tether lines. Like the absorption claws, these harpoons are mounted on the back.
  • "Trikeros Kai" Armed Shield
Modified version of the Trikeros weapon that was recovered along with the right arm of the Blitz Gundam. Although the shape has been changed, it is essentially the same weapon.
  • 50 mm High-Energy Beam Rifle
  • Beam Saber
  • "Lancer Dart" Hypervelocity Kinetic Energy Penetrator
  • "Tsumuha no Tachi" triple claw
An additional weapon for melee combat, it is fixed on the left forearm.
  • "Totsuka no Tsurugi" saber
Like the "Tsumuha no Tachi", these sabers serve to strengthen the Gold Frame Amatsu Mina Custom's close combat capabilities. The "Totsuka no Tsurugi" is not suitable for slashing attacks, and are mainly used to damage the joints and sensors of enemy MS. These weapons require a high degree of skill to use effectively.
  • "Okitsu no Kagami" offense/defense beam shield system
A beam shield and multi-weapon that combines the functions of a beam sword, the beam sword can also be used like a whip. It can only be equipped by removing both the "Totsuka no Tsurugi" sabers and "Tsumuha no Tachi" triple claw. The beam shield was developed from "Armure-Lumiere" Lightwave Barrier technology.

System Features

This system is inherited from Gold Frame Amatsu and allows the suit to disappear from both visual and sensor detection.

History

After the death of Rondo Gina Sahaku, his twin sister Rondo Mina Sahaku recovered his damaged Astray Gold Frame Amatu and repaired and upgraded it into the Astray Gold Frame Amatu Mina Custom. This new version's main visual difference was the spiked toes on its feet as well as minor differences in armament. The Re2-<AMATU> would remain Rondo Mina's personal mobile suit for the duration of the Bloody Valentine War.

In October CE 73, during the "Break the World" incident, Mina and her suit met up with the Junk Guild at GENESIS Alpha, with the intention to help them prevent the successful colony drop of Junius Seven. When the station is attacked by the ZGMF-X12A Testament under orders of the Earth Alliance, the suit would be borrowed by freelance mercenary Kaite Madigan to assist his friend Jess Rabble in battle. The Gold Frame Amatu Mina Custom and Testament briefly fought, until the Testament was driven away by the arrival of the ReHOME.

Some time in CE 73, the Amatu Mina Custom was further upgraded with an offense/defense beam shield system designed by Yoon Sefan into the Astray Gold Frame Amatu Mina Custom ("Okitsu no Kagami" Equipment Type).
