The Tornado Gundam is a Prototype MS and an original unit from the SNES game SD Gundam GX.

Technology & Combat Characteristics[]

The Tornado Gundam was capable of atmospheric flight, granting it high usability in all environments. Its arm armor adopted a multi-layer structure made of Luna Titanium and shock absorption materials, allowing them to be used as shields.[1]

Armaments[]

  • Beam Saber
A pair of beam sabers were mounted on the Tornado Gundam's waist armor.
  • Arm-mounted Gatling Gun
A pair of Gatling guns were mounted underneath the Tornado Gundam's arms.
  • Beam Rifle
An energy pac-powered beam rifle. It appeared to be the same model used by the RX-178 Gundam Mk-II.
  • Diffuse Beam Cannon
Located in the Tornado Gundam's abdomen, it fired bursts of beams that were especially effective against large targets.

History[]

Several Tornado Gundam units were found in the hangar of an abandoned factory that was no longer in production, still in working condition. As such, they were assigned to several units as they were. Since no relevant data was found with the uncovered units, the Tornado Gundam's development time and history were a complete mystery.[1]

Trivia[]

  • Starting from G Generation Spirits, the Tornado Gundam's beam rifle used the same firing sound as the MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam's beam rifle. This was true even in Cross Rays, which did not feature Universal Century series.

Behind the Scenes[]

The Tornado Gundam was a winning entry in a Comic BomBom design contest. The original design was submitted by Mitsuto Shimadachi (島立光人) from Tokyo Metropolis.

In its debut game, SD Gundam GX, the Tornado Gundam can rarely appear at neutral factories, and can then be used by whichever faction that takes over the factory. This is later referenced in its G Generation profile.
