The RX-160S-2 Byarlant Custom 02 is a mobile suit that appears in UC-MSV, Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn - Bande Dessinee and Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn: The Noble Shroud. Its pilots include Bier Quatrieme and Riddhe Marcenas.

Technology & Combat Characteristics[]

The second Byarlant Custom unit developed in Torrington Base as a composite "creature" (Chimera) of Titans mobile suits. The Byarlant Custom 02 is considered the completed version of the Byarlant Custom, unlike Unit 1 which is a modification validation unit. Unit 2 swapped out the Unit 1's back-mounted propellant tank/thruster units for movable binders containing integrated beam cannons, thrusters and fuel tanks. Other differences from Unit 1 included the use of normal MS hands to hold portable weapons, slight changes to the feet design, and new weaponry.

The two long beam rifles on the Byarlant Custom 02's arms can function as ranged or melee combat weapons as they are capable of generating beam sabers. The pair of Aero Armor on top of the long beam rifles are shields that can be used to reduce air resistance when held in front of the mobile suit during high-speed flight. The Byarlant Custom 02 can attach the booster used by the ORX-005 Gaplant to its rear skirt thruster, not only increasing the mobile suit's thrust but also allowing it to reach the higher stratum of the atmosphere under its own power.

Armaments[]

  • Long Beam Rifle
Mounted on the Byarlant Custom 02's arms, the pair of long beam rifles are designed with an emphasis on accuracy and can be used for long-range sniper shots. Additionally, a beam blade can be emitted from the weapon's muzzle, allowing the long beam rifle to be used as long beam saber.
  • Beam Cannon
Mounted in the Byarlant Custom 02's back-mounted movable binders, the pair of beam cannons are based on the ORX-005 Gaplant's beam rifles and are directly linked to the mobile suit's generator. These beam cannons boast high output and excellent rate of fire.
  • Aero Armor
Small shields mounted above the long beam rifles, they have anti-beam coating and also serve to reduce air resistance when the suit is travelling via high-speed flight.

Special Equipment & Features[]

  • Booster Unit
The same booster unit as used by the ORX-005 Gaplant, it substantially increases the amount of fuel the suit can carry, thus increasing the Byarlant Custom 02's cruising range and allowing it to reach the higher stratum of the atmosphere under its own power. When the fuel is depleted, the booster can be ejected.

History[]

The Noble Shroud[]

The Byarlant Custom 02, piloted by Federation pilot Bier Quatrieme, was deployed alongside the RX-160S Byarlant Custom. Together, they battled against mobile suits operated by pirates, and ended up assisting Zeon remnants who were being attacked by the pirates.

Bande Dessinee[]

The Byarlant Custom 02 was constructed in Torrington Base and assigned to the Ra Cailum, piloted by Londo Bell's pilot Riddhe Marcenas. Riddhe used it during the events of manga version of the OVA's episode 5.
