When the five
scientists who designed the XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero in AC 180 went
their separate ways, each of them took copies of the plans for their
original Gundam design. Professor G, who went into hiding in the L2
colonies, then went on to design and build his own Gundam based on
their original plans. With the assistance of an underground scavengers'
guild known as the Sweeper Group, Professor G built a Gundam that
specialized in stealthiness and close-quarters combat. His creation was
called the XXXG-01D Gundam Deathscythe, and it proved to be a true
mechanical terror when it was launched to Earth to fight OZ during
Operation Meteor in AC 195. "Gundam 02," as the Deathscythe was code-named by OZ forces, was equipped with standard vulcan guns and machinecannons for ranged weapons. However, its primary armament was its large, deadly beam scythe, capable of slicing through enemy mobile suits like a knife through hot butter. The Deathscythe also carried a "buster shield," which mounted two solid blades and a beam blade and could be launched spinning into a target for a rather messy, destructive effect. But in order to use these weapons effectively, the Deathscythe was also equipped with a "hyper jammer" ECM system, making the Gundam invisible to various types of electronic sensors, thus allowing the mobile suit to slip in and attack when the enemy isn't looking. The Deathscythe's pilot, Duo Maxwell, became well known as the "God of Death" for his mastery of these stealthy strikes. Information from MAHQ.net |
