The RX-107 [Rosette] Enhanced Land Battle Form (Prototype) is a conceptual design that appears in the novel Advance of Zeta: The Flag of Titans.
Technology & Combat Characteristics[]
Designed as a specialized high mobility land variant of the [[RX-107 [Rosette]]], the prototype concept of the Enhanced Land Battle Form sought to increase mobility, firepower, and protection. As such, a large mission module was designed to be fitted on the Rosette - which housed additional power generation, a very large rear skirt unit with powerful thrusters, a backpack attachment for a shield booster, moveable shields for versatile protection, and a scattering beam gun for enhanced assault capabilities. While the concept itself proved feasible on paper, the practical applications limited direct mass production of the unit, leading to a simplified and more refined design that would later become the RX-107 ［Rosette］ Enhanced Land Battle Form.
Armaments[]
- Scattering Beam Gun
- Mounted on the right shoulder is a powerful scattering beam gun, capable of firing powerful energy blasts with a wide area of effect. The weapon has a small sensor unit on top, and is aimed and controlled by the trigger handle underneath the weapon. Due to the high power of this weapon, the scattering beam gun was fed by an auxiliary generator inside the armor unit.
- Beam Rifle
- The Enhanced Rosette can carry a handheld beam rifle as standard equipment.
Special Equipment & Features[]
- Shield Booster
- Mounted on the backpack of the [Rosette] Land Battle Form (Prototype) mounted a shiel booster atop an articulated hinge on the backpack. This booster was armored and mounted thrusters to provide additional mobility for land or air movement.
- Movable Shield
- Mounted on the sides of the armor unit are a pair of moveable shields for additional protection.
- Armor Unit
- The armor unit of the [Rosette] Land Battle Form (Prototype) was designed to enhance the Rosette's mobility and firepower by a great scale - while also maximizing protection. The unit itself housed large thrusters in the rear skirt armor for hovering and limited flight, as well as the beam scattering gun mounted over the mobile suit's right shoulder.
History[]
This design was created before the combat version of the RX-107 [Rosette] Enhanced Land Battle Form parts was developed. This plan was based on requirements for a land-combat mobile suit capable of high-speed hover movement using only nuclear thermal rocket engines, rather than nuclear thermal jets. However, because the project shifted to a type equipped with nuclear thermal jet engines, this ended up as merely a paper plan and no actual parts were ever constructed.
The prototype plan is based on the standard RX-107 [Rosette], and was meant to carry four energy packs that could be attached to its rear skirts, and a shield booster mounted on its back.
