Changes: RX-78T Gundam Titans Version

Revision as of 13:08, 13 July 2020

Template:Infobox/Mobile Weapon Ver.2RX-78T Gundam Titans Version (also known as G-Titans) is a mobile suit introduced the Mobile Suit Gundam Gihren's Greed strategy game. It also appeared in the SD Gundam: G Generation Gather Beat video game.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

In one of the the "What-if" scenarios of the original Gihren's Greed game, the Titans was formed much earlier and developed the RX-78T Gundam Titans Version prior to the development of the RX-178 Gundam Mk-II. Compared to the original RX-78-2 Gundam, the RX-78T Gundam Titans Version has much higher performance at the cost of shorter operating time.

Armaments

60mm Vulcan Gun: Mounted in the head, the pair of shell firing weapons have high rate of fire but little power and can't damage the armor of a mobile suit, though they can damage lightly armored areas such as the sensors. They are ideal for shooting down small, lightly armored targets such as missiles, attack vehicles, etc.

Beam Saber: The beam saber is a small device held in the mobile suit's hands when operated and is powered by a rechargeable energy capacitor. It can cut through most armor not treated with anti-beam coating. The RX-78T has two beam sabers stored in the backpack. One can be used as a reserve weapon, or both can be used simultaneously in a twin sword fashion. The beam saber can also transform into the beam javelin.

Beam Javelin: The beam javelin is an alternate form of the beam saber, with an extended handle and a three-pronged beam at the end. The long reach of the weapon gives the RX-78T an advantage in close quarters combat. It was also used as a throwing weapon.

Beam Rifle: The beam rifle is the primary weapon used by the RX-78T. Making use of E-cap (or "energy capacitor") technology, the rifle uses charged concentrations of Minovsky particles as ammunition. This gives the beam rifle firepower equivalent to that of a battleship's beam cannons. Features include a large, movable offset sensor that interfaces with the RX-78’s Fire Control System (FCS) to achieve a high degree of accuracy, and a stabilizing foregrip for firing support.

Hyper Bazooka: A general purpose fire support rocket launcher platform for Mobile Suits. With considerable destructive power owing to the explosive yield in each warhead, the weapon was primarily used to destroy less-maneuverable battlefield targets such as warships, satellites, land battleships, bunkers, and buildings.

Shield: Hand-carried, forearm-mounted or stored on the backpack, the shield is a simple defense used to block most physical and beam attacks.

Gundam Hammer: Essentially a large spiked ball attached to a chain, it serve as a ranged melee weapon. The gundam hammer could either be thrown or swung around the mobile suit itself to damage the enemy units.

Hyper Hammer: An enhanced version of the gundam hammer. Like its predecessor, it is a large spiked ball attached to a chain. However, it also has several rockets mounted into the ball to allow it to maneuver more effectively as well as the ability to change its direction before impact, and to increase the damage it could cause.

Special Equipment & Features

Core Block System: Similar to the prototype mobile suits produced by the Earth Federation Forces' Operation V, the RX-78T is equipped with a central block which houses the mobile suit's cockpit, control systems and main power source. This core block can eject in case of emergency and unfold into a small Core Fighter.

Hardpoints: An attachment point for weapons, shields, spare ammunition, or optional mission-specific equipment. Hardpoints can also be used to store carried weapons when a mobile suit needs its manipulators free for other purposes.

Notes and Trivia

In SD Gundam: G Generation Gather Beat, this Gundam is known as the "RX-78 Murasame Lab Version", since the Titans did not appear in the game. It is piloted by Zero Murasame.

 ==Technology & Combat Characteristics==
+In one of the the "What-if" scenarios of the original ''Gihren's Greed'' game, the [[Titans]] was formed much earlier and developed the RX-78T Gundam Titans Version prior to the development of the [[RX-178 Gundam Mk-II]]. Compared to the original [[RX-78-2 Gundam]], the RX-78T Gundam Titans Version has much higher performance at the cost of shorter operating time.
-After the formation of the [[Titans]] in U.C. 0084, they sought to develop their own Gundam-type mobile suit based on the legendary [[RX-78-2 Gundam]]'s frame, resulting in the RX-78T; however, it is implied that its actual frame is that of the [[RGM-79Q GM Quel]]. It retains much of the original Gundam's capabilities, albeit painted in the Titans' dark blue colors.
 ==Armaments==
 ;*60mm Vulcan Gun
-:Mounted in the head, these shell firing weapons have a high-rate of fire but have little power and can't damage the thick armor of a mobile suit, though it can damage lightly armored areas such as the sensors. The weapons are ideal for shooting down small, fast moving, lightly armored targets such as missiles, small land vehicles, and attack helicopters.

 ;*Beam Saber
-:The beam saber is a small cylindrical device held in the mobile suit's hands when operated and is powered by an energy capacitor that is recharged from special racks. The beam saber is capable of cutting through any metal that has not been treated with anti-beam coating. The RX-78T is equipped with two beam sabers, that when not in use are stored in the backpack.

+:;*Beam Javelin
-:The beam javelin is an alternative to the beam saber, it has a higher output than the standard beam saber, and the beam's shape allows for a greater amount of armor penetration ability. The long reach of the weapon gives the RX-78T a considerable advantage in close quarters combat.

-;*Gundam Hammer
-:The Gundam Hammer was essentially a large spiked ball attached to a chain. It was used to give the Gundam a ranged melee weapon. The Gundam could either throw or swing the Hammer around itself in order to impact and damage its target through the sheer mass of the hammer. Later it was upgraded into the Hyper Hammer and had several rockets mounted into the ball in order to enable it for use in space, and to increase the damage it could cause.
 ;*Beam Rifle
-:A revolutionary weapon for it's time, the beam rifle is the primary weapon used by the RX-78T. Making use of E-cap (or "energy capacitor") technology, the rifle uses charged concentrations of Minovsky particles as ammunition. This gives the beam rifle firepower equivalent to that of a battleship's beam cannons. As the Minovsky particles destroy matter on a molecular scale, the beam rifle can penetrate even the thickest armor and destroy its target with a single shot. One weak point of the rifle was its energy limits.

-:Technically a large rocket launcher it could fire several 380mm missiles to attack targets at long range. No mass-production MS's armor is able to stop this weapon. While very powerful, it has a slow rate of fire and a fairly little amount of ammunition. Most oftenly used to take out slow, heavily armored targets.
 ;*Shield
-:Hand-carried, forearm-mounted or stored on the Gundam's backpack, the shield is a simple defense used to block most incoming ballistic and explosive projectiles. Also used to great effect in close quarters battle with enemy mobile suits. Has a view port than can be sealed off with an internal blast plate.

 ==History==
-The RX-78T Gundam was only seen in a what-if scenario of certain games. It can be presumed that since the Titans were focused on suppressing anti-Federation sentiment amongst the Spacenoids (including Zeon remnants), the Titans hoped to take advantage of the original Gundam's fearsome 'White Devil' reputation.
