engineers and their families.

from an old UESA colony by Tubarov. It has a 'watchdog' mobile suit, the

Weapon YO-448
Episode Zero Manga |
A biological weapon intended for use on
colony A0206 (home colony of the Long clan). After the Alliance condemned
the colony in AC194, General Septem ordered the colony be "disinfected" with
this weapon, and Treize, preferring conventional warfare, sent OZ Specials
mobile suits to destroy the colony before the biological weapon could be put
to use. |
Sweeper Ship
Episode Zero Manga |
The ship that Professor J
and Howard take to the moon, and that Duo stows aboard when Professor J
finds him in AC182.

Unit
System
Last Outpost (G-Unit) |
One of
the unique technologies behind the G-Unit Gundams produced at MO-V. Its
intent is to do away with the old system of mobile suit manufacture, in
which machines were designed for only one specific terrain or mission role.
All the mobile suits using the Unit System are completely modular, with a
system of locking bolts holding them together. Thus, every part of a G-Unit
except its cockpit can be quickly and easily changed, allowing one machine
to fulfill multiple mission roles all by itself. |
PX System
Last Outpost (G-Unit) |
The
centerpiece of the G-Unit Gundams, the PX System is a powerful but highly
unstable combat system, usable only by the best pilots. When activated, the
PX System temporarily pushes a mobile suit beyond its normal operational
limits, while stimulating an adrenaline surge in the pilot to allow him to
cope with both the increased speed and the physical exertion of this brief
"super mode". The PX System is typically programmed with an automatic
cut-off for safety; if used beyond this time limit, it can cause damage to
both the mobile suit and the pilot's brain. While using the PX System, the
mobile suit appears to glow, and can move so fast that the human eye can't
follow it. During the events of G-Unit/The Last Outpost, the Barnett
brothers use "PX Overdrive" in which the system is pushed even further than
normal, but with even greater risk of death from its operation. |
