SVMS-01OP Union Flag Orbit Package (aka Flag Orbit Package, Orbit Flag or Union Flag Space Type), is a space-type variant of the SVMS-01 Union Flag. It is featured in Mobile Suit Gundam 00

Technology & Combat Characteristics

The Union Flag Orbit Package is a space variant of the SVMS-01 Union Flag, without the transformable function and uses thrusters instead of the standard Flag's backpack unit. It retains the same armaments as the standard Flag.

Armaments

• Linear Rifle

A rifle that fires electromagnetically-accelerated live rounds and was one of the most advanced weapons available before the introduction of beam weaponry.

• Sonic Blade

The standard melee weapon of both the AEU's and Union's mobile suits. A sonic blade is a folding dagger-like weapon that incorporates a high-frequency oscillating blade. The vibrations of the oscillating blade greatly increase the weapon's cutting capabilities. It can focus plasma in a sword shape to form a plasma sword.

• Defense Rod

A standard defensive feature of AEU and Union mobile suits. The defense rod is a rotating rod usually connected to the elbow joint of the mobile suits left arm. Using rotary motion, the rod is capable of deflecting certain physical rounds such as bullets from a machine gun and in some cases a shot from a beam rifle by generating a plasma field. Compared to conventional shield, the defense rod is lighter as the Flag has to maintain its speed advantage and maneuverability during combat.

• 20mm Machine Gun

Mounted next to the cockpit drum. Used to shoot down incoming missiles. This weapon is not very effective in mobile suit combat.

• Leg Missiles

Depending on mission parameters the Flag can be equipped with different missiles like air-to-air missiles or air-to-surface missiles

History

The Orbit Flag is a space variant of the SVMS-01 Union Flag, it was used by Union of Solar Energy and Free Nations in AD 2307. However, the machine is quickly overshadowed with the introduction of GN powered mobile suits.
