![]() Mobile Suit Development History
| In the year UC 0070, Zeon military researchers successfully experiment with the Minovsky effect, confirming that they can nullify radar and radio communications by scattering massive quantities of Minovsky particles. Realizing that the Minovsky effect will change the face of warfare, and anticipating an eventual confrontation with the Earth Federation, Zeon's researchers begin development of new, highly mobile combat spacecraft tailor-made for the Minovsky era. At first, Zeon's developers set out to create a conventional space fighter. Their starting point was a civilian space pod, a simple spacecraft equipped with hand-like manipulators for construction work.
However, after extensive research, the researchers determine that a fully
humanoid form offers greater flexibility and maneuverability.
Rather than being dead weight, the vehicle's limbs can be used for maneuvering
in accordance with the principles of action and reaction, conserving scarce propellant supplies.
These movements are coordinated by an Active Mass Balance Auto Control (AMBAC) system,
which handles all maneuvering and balancing automatically.
By UC 0073, Zeon's researchers have settled on a humanoid design they call the "mobile suit",
this term represents the acronym Mobile Space Utilty Instruments Tactical.
Development is entrusted to the Zeonic Company, which constructs a series of prototypes.
Though the first few designs were woefully underpowered,
Zeonic resolved the problems that existed by installing their then recently-completed Minovsky fusion reactor in its fourth iteration.
The MS-04 was swiftly remodeled into the combat-worthy MS-05, the prototype of which was completed in February, UC 0074.
Thus was the mobile suit brought into the world.

AZIONIC, AMBAC i Active Mass Balance Autocontrol B AMBAC MOBILE SUIT articulation extends beyond the simple moving of mechanical servo-motors which actuate movement from which mobile suits generate mobility from, it also governs how efficiently those limbs are oriented in flight. Through the use of computer control and command the flight computer can calculate the profile of the mobile suit generates to targeting receivers from enemy target acquisition systems it can automatically adjust aerodynamic surfaces on the suit and its propulsion subassemblies to change the mobile suits orientation and axis of flight through the use of vector-thrust capability to increase or decrease altitude and angle of attack/orientation simultaneously. 従来の宇宙戦闘機が姿勢を変化させるためにバーニア・ロケットを噴射していたのに対し、AMBACシステムは腕や脚を高速度で運動させ、その反作用によって機体全体の姿勢を変化させるもので る。力な核融合システムとその力を格関節のアクチュエータに伝達するパルスシステムの採用により、MSのような巨大兵器でも、腕や脚を高速運動させることにより、3秒以内で180度の姿勢変化が表現できるようになった。
Apogee motors are part of the Integrated AMBAC (Active Mass Balance) system that maintains mobile suit stability in flight, land movement, and combat these Vector thrust capable engines are designed to enhance maneuverability and provide thruster lift-off during jumps. Apogee motors directly affect mobile suit performance in both acceleration and turning during flight, through the use of thrust vectoring a mobile suit will better evade attacks by changing its profile in mid-air without changing flight path or trajectory. A maximum amount of Five (5) Apogee Motor pairs can be installed on a conventional Mobile Suit design without drastic alteration. For each additional Apogee Motor pair added to the Mobile suit there is improvement in the following statistical data. Piloting performance (+5%/per pair), total thruster output (+3,000lbs./thrust), acceleration(+0.3/mach), and turn rate (-0.3/sec.)
さらに、腕や手を持っているということによって、様々な戦術的局面において、それらの局面に対応した武器を自由に持ち換えられるというメリットが った。その他にも、制度の高いマニピュレーターを備えておけば、戦闘だけではな、様々な作業を行えるということや、原型の作業用機は月面や、場合によってはコロニー内などの重力圏内で使われた実績も り、改良すれば陸戦兵器としての汎用的な使用も可能で ると判断された。

These computer systems were discovered by researchers to be the best use of the limited resources on mobile suit combat systems, which were hampered by design and construction drawbacks that limited the upper maximum lift and carry weight in gross tons. While still managing to maintain their ability to achieve limited flight through the use of extended flight-boosters. Designers distributed thrust generating engines throughout the lower limbs and the reactor body to provide enough thrust to achieve 斗imited flight under atmospheric conditions. そして宇宙世紀0075年、最初の量産機で る、MS-05”ザクI”が実用化された。このザクIの性能は軍の要求水準を上回る出来で り、実用試験を閲覧したギレン=ザビは「これこそ、今のジオンに必要な兵器だ!」と叫び、心中で連邦との開戦を決意したといわれている。 By encasing the engine in monocoque construction the engineers designing and constructing YMS-06 FRAMES where able to reduce costs and create stronger designs that would holdup better against enemy missile and projectile fire, All armors are rated by their Structural Points (SP) each value represents an equivalent amount of RHA or High Tensile Steel/in. Ceramic and Composite armor is also available but at a Multiplier in Cost Points to install. Armor Material has the added advantage of reducing impact damage by absorbing its listed deflection adjustment value from weapon damage without suffering a penalty but is reduced in effectiveness (+1 deflection adjustment Mod.), per strike damage done above the maximum (SP) threshold of the armor for that material class. All Add-on armor such as Command or Combination Armor is ablative and as such when added should be listed in K's rather than SP. また、軍内の多数を占める大鑑巨砲主義者たちにとっては、人型兵器が兵器として実用化されるとは考えられず、真剣に検討されることはなかった。また、0070年代に行われたマゼラン級、サラミス級を中心とした新鋭宇宙戦艦の就役は、軍主流にMSの必要性を感じさせなかった。 Pivotal to this development process was the use of new materials which provided the strongest tensile strength and best resistance to heat/friction. Through the economical use of Luna-Titanium YMS-01 designers were able to construct truly light Fully-Humanoid Heavy Movable Reactor Carry Platforms, that met practical Military and Industrial Construction and portable power needs. This led to a very lucrative secondary parts market where these technologies contributed the economic growth of the societies. =AWI抗、MS-05,用eXgy、pC甲g吹AMSaBFI0075N、lS。行Q、MS,用彬NBAN就魔lSTC女m1QMS心QpB |
