Flit Asuno develops it from data held in the AGE Device his family has passed down, and it goes into action with the Earth Federation's Grodek faction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat it does in the story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlit takes it out against the Unknown Enemy, whose mobile suits ignore the Federation's beam spray guns, and the AGE System works out the DODS Rifle during an early engagement to answer them. The suit later passes to his son Asemu, and once the Federation can maintain it without the AGE System it is rebuilt into the AGE-1 Flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat makes it different\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe AGE System writes its own equipment.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nThe operating system collects combat data, analyses what it is fighting, and works out the gear needed to beat it, which the AGE Builder then manufactures. The DODS Rifle exists because the Genoace's beam spray gun could not damage a Vagan mobile suit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe DODS Rifle drills through armour.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nIt spins the beam it fires like a drill, and that is what lets a single shot destroy a Gafran or a Baqto. The cost is a limited charge, so a running fight ends with an empty rifle, and the weapon can be set for one-handed or two-handed use depending on how much accuracy is needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWear parts change the whole machine.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nArmour and equipment built by the AGE Builder convert the AGE-1 into the faster Spallow or the heavier Titus. Each limb carries its own power unit, a quirk of the experimental build that made swapping whole sections practical in the first place.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe fin on its back is an antenna.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nThe spoiler-shaped fitting is a broad antenna that works with the head sensors to gather and analyse data mid-battle, and it can transmit a limited amount of what it learns.
