The YFX-600R GuAIZ Experimental Firearms Type is an experimental mobile suit introduced in the original design series Mobile Suit Gundam SEED MSV.

Technology & Combat Characteristics[]

As its name suggests, the GuAIZ Experimental Firearms Type served as a testbed for new mobile suit weapons, particularly those of the ZGMF-X09A Justice Gundam and ZGMF-X10A Freedom Gundam. The backpack of the standard GUAIZ is replaced by the prototype of the Justice's Fatum-00, and this flight support unit/subflight lifter is armed with two beam cannons and four machine guns. The rail cannons on the hips are similar to those of the Freedom, while its beam sabers and beam rifle are the same as those used by both Gundams. Lastly, two Vulcan guns are mounted on the head.

The GuAIZ Experimental Firearms Type was the first ZAFT mobile suit to have Phase Shift armor, but was still powered by battery pack as it was designed before the development of the Neutron Jammer Canceller. It was therefore unable to meet the energy needs of its PS armor and its energy intensive beam weaponry. When both systems ran concurrently, the MS only lasted for 5 minutes. An auxiliary power pack was later installed in the subflight lifter, but this only doubled the operating time. When the suit was subsequently deployed in the second battle at Jachin Due, it was tethered to an external generator for longer operating time.

Armaments[]

  • MA-M01 "Lacerta" Beam Saber
The only close combat weapons of the suit, they are stored on top of the rail cannons and can combine into a double-bladed beam saber.
  • MMI-GAU2 "Picus" 76mm CIWS
Mounted in the suit's head are two "Picus" 76mm multi-barrel CIWS guns. These light projectile weapons are mainly for intercepting missiles and to destroy lightly armored vehicles.
  • MMI-M15 "Xiphias" Rail Cannon
Similar to the ones on Freedom Gundam, they are also mounted on the hips and folds into two parts when not in use.
  • MA-M20 "Lupus" Beam Rifle
The upgraded version of GuAIZ's MA-M21G Beam Rifle, it draws energy from the mobile suit's battery to fire energy beams that are highly effective against conventional armor. So effective is the weapon that only a handful of shots are needed to destroy an Earth Alliance warship.
  • MA-4B "Fortis" Beam Cannon
A pair of rapid-fire "Fortis" beam cannons are mounted at the front of the flight support unit/subflight lifter and served as its main weapon.
  • GAU5 "Volucris" Machine Gun
Four "Volucris" machine guns are mounted on the flight support unit/subflight lifter and are mainly used to shoot down incoming missiles or close enemy units.

Special Equipment & Features[]

  • Flight Support Unit/Subflight Lifter
Prototype of the Fatum-00 unit used by Justice, it can be used as a flight pack when attached to the suit or deployed as a separate support unit/subflight unit that is remote-controlled or AI-controlled. Unlike the Fatum-00, this prototype only has three thrusters and is armed with two MA-4B "Fortis" beam cannons and four GAU5 "Volucris" machine guns. The number of thrusters proved to be inadequate and as a result, the thruster count for Fatum-00 was increased to six.
GuAIZ Experimental Firearms Type is equipped with Phase Shift (PS) armor that ZAFT obtained from the four Gundams they stole from the Earth Alliance.

History[]

Gundam Seed Mobile Suit Variations Vol.11[]

The exact production numbers for the GuAIZ Experimental Firearms Type are unknown, but unofficial witness testimonies from both ZAFT and Earth Alliance soldiers indicated that at least one unit participated in the Second Battle of Jachin Due. The said unit was tethered to external generators on Jachin Due and fought as a mobile turret of sort. Since ZAFT had no record of any official deployment order for this unit, some believed that the pilot might have sortied against order, but this cannot be confirmed.

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Special Edition & Mobile Suit Gundam SEED (HD Remaster)[]

During the Second Battle of Jachin Due, a GuAIZ Experimental Firearms Type was seen tethered to the space fortress as a defense unit. This unit was disabled by Athrun Zala's ZGMF-X09A Justice Gundam during his charge into the fortress.[1]

Gundam Seed MSV Senki Field 05: Jachin Due [Part 1] September 26 C.E. 71[]

Barry Ho's MBF-M1A M1A Astray and Jean Carry's MBF-M1 M1 Astray were part of the Three Ship Alliance's battlefield reconnaissance team. While Barry's M1A Astray successful infiltrated Jachin Due, Jean's M1 Astray stayed outside to battle the enemy mobile suits. Barry was soon confused by the space fortress' layout and exited after battling several enemy mobile suits on the way out. Just as Barry left Jachin Due, his M1A Astray was attacked by a GuAIZ Experimental Firearms Type tethered to the fortress. After evading the GuAIZ Experimental Firearms Type's attacks, Barry's M1A Astray sneak to the back of the enemy machine. The GuAIZ Experimental Firearms Type turned around and tried to shoot at the M1A Astray, but was hindered by the cable tethering it to the fortress. Seizing the opportunity, Barry's M1A Astray launched a powerful right handed strike at the GuAIZ Experimental Firearms Type's waist, damaging internal components and disabling the enemy machine.

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny manga[]

In the prologue, an untethered GuAIZ GuAIZ Experimental Firearms Type was shown to have held off Morgan Chevalier's GAT-01A1+AQM/E-X04 Gunbarrel Dagger long enough for the GENESIS superweapon to fire a second shot.
