{"title":"F91 Gundam F91","description":"\u003cp\u003eF91 Gundam F91 is the Strategic Naval Research Institute's prototype from \u003cem\u003eMobile Suit Gundam F91\u003c\/em\u003e (1991, U.C. 0123). It is the product of the Formula Project, a programme built to shrink mobile suits and break Anaheim Electronics' grip on the market. Seabook Arno pilots it, and the Space Ark's captain coined the name Gundam F91 because the face reminded her of the RX-78-2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat it does in the story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe F91 is recovered from a Frontier Side colony after the Crossbone Vanguard attacks and refurbished aboard the training ship Space Ark. Seabook's first run in it accounts for three Crossbone Vanguard machines over Frontier I, and the suit later fights the automated Bugs and Iron Mask's Rafflesia inside a colony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat makes it different\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt is much smaller than the suits before it.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nHead height is 15.2 m against roughly 18 m for One Year War era machines, and the reactor shrank with the frame, moving into an enlarged backpack ringed by high-output thrusters. Low mass with high output gives it mobility older suits cannot answer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe VSBRs choose between punch and penetration.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nThe two Variable Speed Beam Rifles mount on the backpack and draw power straight from the reactor. A slow beam carries high destructive power, a fast one carries high penetration, enough to pass through a beam shield. Stowed, they also serve as AMBAC mass.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt sheds armour to make decoys.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nThe Multiple Construction Armor puts cooling and wiring into the armour layers themselves, which saves space inside a small frame. When the suit runs hot it peels off outer layers, and the metallic particles left behind form afterimages with mass that fool pilots and radar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOnly a Newtype unlocks the full mode.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nA limiter keeps the F91 inside what an ordinary pilot can handle. The Bio-Computer reads the pilot through a Bio-Sensor in the seat; when it detects a Newtype it releases the limiter, opens the face guard and deploys the shoulder heat radiation fins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow big is it?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHead height: 15.2 m according to Bandai's official spec\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 7.2 t empty and 19.9 t fully loaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/144: roughly 10.6 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/100: roughly 15.2 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy buy from P-Rex Hobby\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eP-Rex Hobby is a \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/vendors\"\u003eBandai Recommended Hobby Store\u003c\/a\u003e with 20,000+ customers served and \u003cspan data-prex-live=\"five-star-reviews\"\u003e1,800+\u003c\/span\u003e five-star reviews.
