The UGY-R267MM Monkey Crab Rodi is a mobile suit introduced in the mobile game Mobile Suit Gundam IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS Urdr-Hunt. It is based on the Monkey Rodi Commander Type and is piloted by 598.
Technology & Combat Characteristics[]
Created by the mechanic team of the Rakow pirates, the Monkey Crab Rodi is a refurbished form of the Monkey Rodi Commander Type piloted by 598.[1] It was designed to take advantage of 598's specialization in high mobility combat.[1] The Monkey Crab Rodi retained its predecessor's horn and orange shoulders, but replaced the manipulators with claws, and has machine guns built into its forearms.[1]
Armaments[]
- Quadruple Claw
- Four claws are installed on each of the Monkey Crab Rodi's forearms for penetrating enemy unit during close combat.[1]
- Machine Gun
- Built into the forearms of the Monkey Crab Rodi, the pair of machine guns are used for restricting enemy movements.[1]
- Shield
- A pair of shields are attached to the Monkey Crab Rodi's forearms.
Special Equipment & Features[]
- An organic device system, this old man-machine interface was developed during the Calamity War to maximize the abilities of the mobile suit. Hence, most mobile suits from that era are compatible with it. The system has two parts, one part is installed in the mobile suit, and the other part is implanted into the pilot’s spine. With this system, the pilot can connect to the mobile suit's computer and directly process mobile suit data. It also allows the pilot (even uneducated ones) to operate mobile suit for combat without reading the instruction manual. The implant in the pilot also enhances spatial awareness. The drop in technical capabilities after the Calamity War, coupled with the use of an incomplete version of the system in the Outer Sphere areas (such as Mars and Jupiter), lead to the implant surgery having a low success rate and can only be done at a young age to let the implant fuse as the pilot grow.
