About charging rate of Zanzibar in CDA, I,ve read the volume. It seems to me that this particular cannon is a special cannon like a hyper mega beam cannon. This can explain why every barrel has a 150 seconds charging time. The other mega cannons perhaps don't have such long recharge time. It's very ...

Thank you so much for your answer. After reading them, I have a question. Assumed all the "fictional teory" on minowsky particle, a mega cannon can fire al low output but higher rate of fire? For example, a mega cannon can fire when the condenser is at 50% of its capacity? If this is "...

To MythSearcher.
Can you tell me in which volume of CDA is seen the time of ship recharging cannons?
I'm reading CDA now but I haven't find anything.
Can you post an image?
Thx.

Very interesting. About Jamru Fin,in many description we read about its armament: " high mega cannon, power rated at 6 MW in mobile suit mode and 30.1 MW in mobile armor mode, mounted in torso;" Why in mobile suit mode it has 6 MW and in mobile armor 30.1 Mw? And second question, I've foun...

Thx, I had read Mark's post and for aiming range and minowsky dispersion I agree with Mark. But about rate of fire and recharge time, I still think that 150 seconds (Chars deleted affairs) to load a ship mega cannon seem to me a very long time. The naval guns of WW2 ships fire a shot every 45 second...

Yes, indeed the ships guns are difficult to aim and the minimal error of a mm can become hundreds of metres at distances of 30/40Km. Probably the timing from Igloo is faulty or intentional to dramatize the battle scene. Anyway 150 seconds to load a cannon seem to me a very long time. The 381mm OTO/A...

From wat we can see in animation, mega cannons and rifles are all but precise. Yes, the particles are fast but many times we can se them miss the targets. Only elite pilots and newtype hit with few shot, but elites pilots and newtypes are few. The mass pilots of an army are the regular pilots. I don...

P.S. In the Doven Wolf schematics there are two labeled e-cap. The n.3 and n.15. The first resemble a condenser but the n15 is very similar to the e-cap of the rx78 beam rifle e-cap. Wht do you think? And the other armaments of the doven wolf as the hand beam gun, or binder cannon are without e-cap?...

@Mark: the internal design of the Messala's cannon is pretty similar to the cannon with the energy condenser, so probably is an error of the label. Probably even in 0087 e-cap tecnology is difficult to high output cannons like that of the Messala. But however it bugs me that the rifle of the zeta (5...

Yes, I've read the entire discussion, but the distinction between e-cap beam rifle and mega cannon about the output seems to me a little misleading. It's evidence from the animations that beam rifles have high ratio of fire than the mega cannon because of the e-cap but also the mega cannon of ships,...

Thank you very much Jager. I think Mark is right. 40 seconds to replenish the entire Ecap seemed a little to much quick. And is compatible whit the sniper rifle of the gm ground type that is 3.8Mw and without external source of energy can replenish a single shot in 120 seconds. And in 0087 is "...

About Beam weapons and recharge times, is possible to find some data? I've found these data in a traduction of Master Archive but I don't know if the translation is accurate: "BOWA BR-M-79C-1 BEAM SPRAY GUN The rate of fire has been increased by 20% over the experimental XBR-M-79, and burst fir...

The point is to exchange infos and ideas...

And search if anyone can guess of have found some other data about the MS which specs seems odd and wrong...

Hi, about MS of Zeta Gundam, there are some that have very low thrust in comparison of what you see on the anime. One of this is the Messala. In the descriprion from gundam wikia: "The Messala was the first of five mobile weapons personally produced by the powerful Newtype Paptimus Scirocco on ...

Are you sure? Does the gundam have nuclear jet engines?

Nebfer, I start this post to discuss about differences of specs in various series on similar MS, not ISP or Delta V or fuel efficiency...

I've searched but obviously of the Krake Zulu I don't found any thrust specs...

Yes I read the specs from: http://www.dab.hi-ho.ne.jp/micken/sdp2.html I find interesting in the description the relationship of performance with MS-06R and MS-06S. If we presume a total thrust of 61400 for the Zaku S (by Toysdream speculation in this thread http://www.mechatalk.net/viewtopic.php?f=...

Yes I agree. A machine with only few minutes of fuel autonomy can be exceptional as top performances but useless in battle.

Probably we can assume that in 0080 and 0083 there are mobile suits that have great thrust to achieve better performance but in zeta, with more powerful generators and more verniers the various ms have much better mobility so an enormous thrust is no more necessary...
