The F90II-L Gundam F90II Long Range Type is one of the variants of F90II Gundam F90II and featured in the original design series, Mobile Suit Gundam F90.
Technology & Combat Characteristics
A mission pack designed for long distance sniping. Not only does it perform long-range shooting, tests performed with this mission pack include the bending of beam trajectory. It is equipped with a long range rifle that can switch firing modes between beam and live ammunition, capable of firing at high angles while remaining hidden from sight. Because it is not a homing weapon, coordinates must be entered into the computer before shooting. Spare ammunition clips are attached to the waist hardpoints, while E-Caps are mounted on the left and right leg hardpoints. It was completed with the I-Type mission pack on October 28, U.C. 0121.
Armaments
- 60mm Vulcan Guns
- Mounted on the F90II's head, it is used as a weapon to increase the distance between the enemy and the pilot. It can also be used to deal some damage to enemy mobile suits.
- Beam Saber
- The F90II mounts a pair of powerful beam sabers on its recharge rack on its back that are able to swiftly cut and destroy enemy mobile suits
- 2-tube Medium Range Missile Launcher
- Each forearm is equipped with a 2-tube Missile Launcher used for defensive purposes such as when the mobile suit gets trapped. When used properly, it becomes a weapon capable of destruction.
- Long Rifle
- The unique weapon of the F90II Long Range, featuring the ability to fire both live ammunition and beams. In live firing mode it uses clips of 6 rounds each, while in the beam rifle mode, it is powered by a replaceable e-cap. Additional ammunition for the live rounds are stored on the left skirt armor, while 2 additional e-caps are stored on their leg joints. When not in use, the Long Rifle can be folded in two and stored on its right backpack.
- Shield
- The F90II sports a colossal shield about 3/4 of its height, capable of defending against both beam and physical weaponry. It can be used as a combo with the Long Rifle to simultaneously attack and defend. While the shield defends the mobile suit, the pilot is allowed to concentrate on sniping his target. When not in use, it is stored at the back of the F90II.
Special Equipment & Features
- Bio-Computer System
- The bio-computer installed in the F90II displays real-time combat data on its screens and feeds them to the pilot in the form of sensory information. It is an improved version of the psycommu system which allows the pilot to dodge pre-emptive attacks before they strike, making it very nimble in combat.
- Thermoscope
- A thermoscope is mounted on the mission pack of the F90II Long Range which when brought forward from the right to the eyes, allows the mobile suit to detect enemies that are invisible. This makes it a deadly long range sniper on the battlefield, capable of shooting down any opponent before it.
- Precision Composite Sensor
- Mounted on the left shoulder of the F90II, it allows the suit to accurately pinpoint the exact coordinates of enemy mobile suits, giving the mobile suit a super range and unprecedented accuracy for its shots. This is usually used together with the Long Rifle and its shield, although it can be used in tandem with the missile launcher as well.
History
The Gundam F90II Long Range Type is piloted by Nana Tachibana who engaged in combat with Crossbone Vanguard forces in U.C. 0123. This mobile suit however, is only used for a short period of time before being out of commision.
