The ORX-013 Gundam Mark V was designed by Mika Akitaka as a prototype general purpose mobile suit fielded by the New Desides in the Gundam photo-novel Gundam Sentinel.

Technology & Combat CharacteristicsEdit

A prototype mobile suit developed by the Augusta Newtype Research Institute as a refined version of the MRX-009 Psyco Gundam, the Gundam Mark V was an immensely powerful unit. The project is initially commissioned by the Titans, however, the political situation shifts in favor of the AEUG during its development process, and then is taken over by the regular Federation Forces. Three prototype units are eventually completed, but as the Gryps Conflict comes to an end the Gundam Mark V has yet to enter combat. Unlike the Psyco Gundam, the Gundam Mark V can be operated by normal pilots who have not undergone Newtype enhancement, thanks to the revolutionary Quasi-psycommu system, which also allowed the pilot to control the wire-guided Incom remote weapons stored in its backpack. The unit could also be fitted with a shield booster similar to that used by the Gundam TR-1 Hazel series, which can be attached to its back as an additional thruster. It was also very well armored, incredibly fast and maneuverable to the point of being detrimental to the health of the pilot, as Brave Cod discovered when he shattered most of his teeth during an emergency evasion maneuver.

ArmamentsEdit

  • Beam Rifle
  • Beam Saber
  • INCOM
A remote weapon designed for use with the quasi-psycommu system. These disc-shaped devices are armed with internal beam guns and controlled via wire cables. Every time an INCOM changes its flight direction, it deploys a tiny relay INCOM to hold the wire in place and maintain its connection to its parent mobile suit. When the pilot recalls the INCOM, it retraces its course as the wire is retracted. It is power rated at 4.5 MW.
  • Back Beam Cannon
  • 3-tube missile Pod
A missile pod that launches barrages of small micro-missiles which then themselves launch series of small steel pellets. The pellet waves it generates have the added effect of enveloping the enemies in difficult to counter swarms that hamper manuevering and visibility.

System FeaturesEdit

  • Quasi-psycommu System

VariantsEdit

  • ORX-013 Gundam Mark V Augusta Test Colors
A Gundam Mark V unit equipped with a experimental beam rifle for data collection.
  • ORX-013 Gundam Mk-V Amuro Ray Type
A custom Newtype-use Gundam Mk-V unit intended for use by Amuro Ray. It is operated by Karaba.

HistoryEdit

When the New Desides staged their rebellion and took control of the former Zeon asteroid base Pezun, the Earth Federation sent a fleet to interdict them. One prototype Gundam Mk-V unit was placed in storage at the relay station Penta , and is subsequently reassigned to Admiral Brian Aeno’s fleet in order to help suppress the New Desides. When the Aeno fleet, lead by Admiral Brian Aeno, was sent to provide relief to Task Force Alpha they brought with them the awesomely powerful ORX-013 Gundam Mk. V (V being the roman numeral for "five"). However, on March 28, Universal Century 0088, the Aeno Fleet defected from the Earth Federation Forces and allied with the New Desides, and Aeno presented the Gundam Mk. V to New Desides leader Brave Cod as a gift to prove his loyalty.

The Gundam Mk. V would be piloted by Brave Cod during the lengthy battle for Ayers City on the dark side of Earth's moon. Cod dealt tremendous blows to the efforts of Taskforce Alpha with the Gundam Mk. V, even destroying the entire three-man FA-010A FAZZ team single-handedly, as well as laying waste to many other units. However Brave Cod's skill and the Gundam Mark V's power, as immense as they both were, would prove insufficient when he came up against the MSA-0011[Ext] Ex-S Gundam piloted by Ryu Roots. At first Brave Cod was able to completely dominate the unskilled and hot-headed Ryu Roots, dealing tremendous damage to the Ex-S Gundam, but sensing the unit was in danger the Ex-S Gundam's ALICE computer took over all piloting controls and destroyed the Gundam Mk. V. With Brave Cod dead Ayers City fell to the Earth Federation Forces, and the few remaining New Desides would retreat.

Two more prototypes were made. One of them ended up in the possesion of Axis Zeon, when a researcher defected from the Murasame Research Institute. Its external design, quasi-psycommu system, combined with combat data of Psycho Gundam Mk-II, produced the mass production unit AMX-014 Doven Wolf. Although in the real world, Gundam Mk-V is designed after both of these units, it is retconned as such.
