Template:Infobox/Mobile Weapon Ver.2The RX-77AQ Guncannon Aqua is a mobile suit from Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt and its ONA version. It is piloted by Bianca Carlyle.
Technology & Combat Characteristics
A mobile suit developed from the Guncannon for underwater combat.[1] Its chest, knee and backpack are equipped with hydrojets for underwater propulsion.[1] Instead of the original's 240mm Cannons and Beam Rifle, the Guncannon Aqua is instead armed with Torpedo Launch Tubes, Needle Gun and Beam Sabers.[1][2] The version depicted in the manga has red color scheme similar to the original Guncannon, while the ONA version has a blue color scheme.
Armaments
- Needle Gun
- A special rifle that uses compressed air to launch solid metal needles that can pierce most armor, including those of submarines and amphibious mobile suits.
- Torpedo Launch Tube
- Mounted on the back, six on each side of the backpack.
- Beam Saber
- Stored in the side armor, it emits a blade-shaped beam for cutting and piercing enemy mobile suits. Can be used on land or in the water, but with lower effectiveness.
History
