Official stats wise Clop class can fit 5-6 units while Salamis Kai can hold 4 units.

Space Ark is almost the exact same size as Clop class, its just without the radiator fins so no change there for holding units and changing its thrusters layout and having less thrusters compared to the Clop class.

Clop class can carry a few more mobile suits than the Salamis Kai class, so that's one of its advantages along with being faster. Its also longer too length wise than the Salamis Kai so that holds up about right for it being able to carry more mobile suits. The Reinforce is based on the Clop class t...

The Ra Cailum class of ships seems to be pretty reliable overall. It has good firepower and seems to be faster than most other Federation ships, and its mass produced too, and has a well size mobile suit carrying ability. The Clop class ships have better speed compared to the Salamis class as a ligh...

I'm waiting for someone to create the Tony Danza Dilanza custom model kit.

This is getting off topic, stick to the thread of Jegan beam rifle, not SRW.

Michael Kopsa passes away at age 66. He was the english voice actor for Char Aznable from MSG TV and CCA.

The Jegan A/B type beam rifle from F91 actually does show up in Unicorn. When the Banshee Norn is attacking the Nahel Argama, we see a team of ReZels and a Jegan attack it, one of the ReZels is using that beam rifle as a beam bayonet to attack the Norn but it get its arm crushed. Its definitely not ...

Makes sense really. Especially when you consider sometimes the beam guns in Gundam need E-Pacs to function, so maybe the E-Pac itself can be some like an MS use paint bullet (like seen in the training exercises in Stardust Memory, Macross Plus and Muv Luv Total Eclipse). Given the rather violent na...

Could it be due to her being in the cockpit with Suletta earlier or something else?

She copied Suletta's phone/tablet earlier and with it the control access to the Gundam.

Protect Suletta's smile. It is a treasure.

The Utena comparisons are not a coincidence... the head writer Ichiro Okouchi wrote the novel version of Utena.

I'm curious if the Aerial is the actual Lfrith prototype just rehauled or if its a new unit based on it... The mini novel version apparently says the Aerial is sentient/has a AI... so I wonder if Suletta calls it her younger brother or sister like she did with the Lfrith prototype as she called that...

Core Boosters were created to make up for the poor aircraft performance of the core fighter. While the Core Booster itself had good firepower to use against mobile suits with its mega particle cannons via long range support, it is still no match for mobile suits without support like other aircraft/s...
