Technology and Combat Characteristics
An early miniature transformable mobile suit developed by Anaheim Electronics, the RXR-44 (F-50D) Guntank R-44 was based on an older transforming artillery mobile suit, the D-50C Loto, a special operations mobile suit created in UC 0096. Due to its compact size, the 200mm main cannons mounted on its shoulder had to be loaded manually. One feacture gain from D-50C Loto with unlike most of the Mobile Suit, its main torso contained enough room for four personnel to fully operate the mobile suit and transport the ground force.
Armaments
- 200mm Cannon
- 4-Tube Missile Pod
- Finger Launcher Gun
History
The overall design proved to be a failure, however, and the R-44 never made it past the prototype stage. It is unknown how many R-44 prototypes were manufactured, but it is confirmed that at least one unit later came under the ownership of Roy Jung, curator of a war museum at the Frontier IV colony. Roy refurbished the unit and personally gave it the unofficial model number RXR-44 (with 44 being his age when he acquired the suit). Roy would take his prized R-44 into battle with Seabook Arno in a futile attempt to help repel the Crossbone Vanguard forces invading the colony in UC 0123.
