Real World

[[Category:{{{era}}} Mobile Weapons]] The MBF-P02 Gundam Astray Red Frame with Power Loader is a Mobile Suit in the manga series Gundam SEED Astray.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

After forging the large 150 meter katana, Lowe built a huge 60 meter tall Power Loader robot for the Red Frame to dock with (inspired by the ZGMF-X09A Justice and ZGMF-X10A Freedoms' METEOR units), allowing it to wield the large sword. This Power Loader is a large mobile suit-like unit, which is docked with the Red Frame for control. Due to its immense size, the Loader can be split in two parts for easier storage.

Armaments

150 meter 'Gerbera Straight' katana: After the Junk Guild group to which Lowe belonged found a large piece of rare metal, Lowe forged a huge, 150 meters long version of his "Gerbera Straight" katana out of this metal. Since the standard version of the Red Frame isn't able to handle the sheer size of this sword, Lowe created two additional equipments for his suit to carry and use the large sword. These equipments were first the large Power Loader and later the additional arm equipments of the Red Frame "Powered Red" version.

History

The Power Loader was built during the latter half of the year CE 71, specifically for the purpose of allowing Lowe to wield the massive 150 meter Gerbera Straight katana. After it was first completed the Power Loader was immediately put to use to cut a portion of Junius Seven's support shaft in order for the colony's center of balance to be changed and brought under control.

For a short period after that the power loader was used on a job to cut various large space rocks in half. At this point in time Jean Carry had joined the team and used his knowledge of engineering to increase the Power Loader's overall efficiency.

The Power Loader was eventually destroyed in combat with the ZGMF-X11A Regenerate. Using parts supplied by Jean Carry the Red Frame would be repaired and modified into the MBF-P02 Astray Red Frame "Powered Red".
