The NZ-333 ϝ Azieru (aka Digamma Azieru) is a land combat variant of the NZ-333 α Azieru from Gundam Try Age.
Design & Development[]
The slightly bigger main chassis is similar to NZ-333 α Azieru's, keeping most if its built-in weapons. But it's also equipped with new legs (modified from MSN-03 Jagd Doga's) and arms. Although it appears to no longer be equipped with funnels, the new arms have remote wireless function (much like AMX-014 Döven Wolf's) with a beam gun in each finger, the beam hands can also generate large beam claws for close combat.
Armaments[]
- Vulcan Gun
- The NZ-333 ϝ Azieru mounts 4 vulcan guns on the sides of its head. Vulcan guns are typically small-caliber weapons that do not have the power to heavily damage the armor of a mobile suit, though it is possible to deal light damage. However, they have a high rate of fire and serve as mid-to-short range defensive weapons for shooting down small, lightly armored targets such as missiles or remote weapons, and to restrict an approaching enemy mobile suit's movements.
- Twin Large Vulcan Gun
- The NZ-333 ϝ Azieru has an additional pairs of vulcan guns located in the forehead and in the chest, and they are larger than those on the sides of the head. The large vulcan guns are capable of firing 6000 rounds in a minute.
- Head Mega Particle Gun
- A powerful weapon in the ϝ Azieru's arsenal is a mega particle gun installed in the head where the unit's "mouth" would be. With a power rating of 19.5 MW, the beam unleashed from the mega particle gun can destroy multiple mobile suits in one shot.
- Chest Mega Particle Gun
- A second mega particle gun that is located in the chest of the ϝ Azieru. This cannon can fire a scatter beam or a focused beam, and the latter is capable of punching a hole through a colony's wall.
- Psycommu Beam Hand
- The ϝ Azieru's forearms can be launched and controlled via Psycommu, similar to the MSN-02 Zeong and the MRX-010 Psyco Gundam Mk-II, and maneuvered by built in verniers and small scale thrusters. The beam hands are controlled through the psycommu system and can be employed to grab and hold enemy mobile suits, as a mid-range melee weapon, and possess an electrical shock ability that lets the arm to discharge electricity into a grabbed enemy machine. This electrical attack is severely painful to the enemy pilot. Each arm also has a built-in beam gun inside in its palm. The beam hands can also generate large beam claws for close combat.
- Beam Cannon
- The fingers of the ϝ Azieru each contain a beam cannon, for a total of 10 beam cannons.
- Psycommu Beam Sword
- Not only can the forearms detached and be directed at a targets via a Psycommu, they can also emit a large beam sword each, allowing an all-range melee attack. Power rating of 1.7 MW each. The detached forearm is controlled via the ϝ Azieru's psycommu system.
- 5-barrel Wired Psycommu Mega Arm Cannon
- Mounted at the ends of the ϝ Azieru's shoulder armor are two wire-guided mega arm cannon units. Each unit is armed with 5-barrel beam cannons, with each cannon having a power rating of 12.6 MW. When launched, the mega arm cannons allow the ϝ Azieru to attack a target from multiple angles simultaneously, making dodging very difficult. Although they are controlled by the Psycommu system, they however lack the range and are used more as mid-to-short range weapons.
Special Equipment & Features[]
- Psycommu System
- A Psycommu is a device connected directly into the user's thoughts, through which the user can manipulate it by using his/her mind. The name derives from psychic and communicator. In essence, a psycommu system works by passively scanning the brainwaves of Newtypes, amplifying them in order to send the brainwave signal out long distances, and then translating these brainwaves into raw machine codes upon being received by the selected object. Since brainwaves are not affected by the radio interference property of Minovsky particles, at first it was mainly used to mentally control remote weapons, usually mounted with a single beam gun. Later on, the psycommu system was also used to increase response times.
- Psycho-Control System
- This system allows the pilot to control the unit externally via the Psycommu System.
- Minovsky Craft Emitters
- When scattered in open space or in the air, the repulsive forces between charged Minovsky particles cause them to spontaneously align into a regular cubic lattice structure called an I-field. An I-field lattice will slowly expand and scatter into space; however, if used correctly, the ϝ Azieru can obtain low altitude flight under gravity without refueling. The Minovsky Craft units are located on the rear shoulder units and lower legs.
- Waist I-Field Generator
- The ϝ Azieru has four waist I-Field Generators, two at the front and two at the rear, which protects it from all beam attacks. The duration of the I-Field itself is unknown, though the actual coverage extends only to the whole body of the mobile suit.
- Escape Shuttle
- The head of the ϝ Azieru, which is where the cockpit is located, can detach from the main body and fly under its own power. This allows it to be used as an escape pod in the event that the body of the ϝ Azieru is too damaged to continue operation or is otherwise in danger of being destroyed.
History[]
Classified as a Build MS, it is actually a modified α Azieru Gunpla. The background story given by its builder is that it's the α Azieru modified to operate under Earth's gravity for cleaning up remaining Earth Federation Forces after Axis dropping.
