The YG-111 Gundam G-Self Reflector Pack is a mobile suit featured in the anime Gundam Reconguista in G.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

The Reflector Pack is designed for the G-Self for blocking and absorbing the enemy's beam shots, enhancing the G-Self's beam rifle shots and generating its energy wings when the reflector's gauge is in full charge. In order to deploy or undeploy and control the reflector pack, the G-Self is installed with an external reflector controller.

Armaments

• Head Vulcan

A standard issue light weapon that was primarily good for shooting down missiles and lightly armored craft. If the mobile suit was in close range combat it could be used to down an enemy units head sensors.

• Beam Saber

Close-combat weapon with two mounted on the collar. Although the blade is slender, it can be extended and shorten, and has high cutting power. It also functions as a beam shield if it is rotated at high speed while being held.

• Beam Rifle

The G-Self has used two different beam rifle models. The original one made by Towasanga and a new one made by the Amerian Army. The Towasanga's model is more powerful, but the Amerian model is easier to maintain.

• Shield

The G-Self uses three shields throughout the story. The original one made by Towasanga, another one made by the Amerian Army, and a third made by Venus Globe along with the Perfect Pack. Although the Amerian model is cheaper, Towasangan model has built-in vulcan guns, sliding beam absorbing reflectors, and is capable of generating a photon shield to protect allies.

Special Equipment & Features

• Core Block System

• BPAM-03 Reflector Pack

The Reflector Pack is a backpack created by the Amerian Army's Caribbean Marine Research Institute and applying the technology of the Towasanga shield. When equipped, the G-Self's colors change to purple.
