The CGUE DEEP Arms is a variant of the ZGMF-515 CGUE introduced in the side story Mobile Suit Gundam SEED MSV. One unit is piloted by Shiho Hahnenfuss.

Technology & Combat Characteristics[]

The CGUE DEEP Arms (DEEP standing for Directional Energy Emission exPerimental) is a mobile suit based on the ZGMF-515 CGUE. It is created to test the beam weapon technology that ZAFT obtained from the four stolen G Project mobile suits, and is thus equipped with a pair of experimental beam cannons that are over 10 meters in length. The cannons' large size is due to the presence of a large beam-generating unit and large cooling systems. These cannons also placed an additional burden on the suit's body. To cope with it, existing power and cooling units are replaced by newer, high-output ones, and additional units are installed in the backpack.

Although the beam cannons' cooling issue is not adequately solved, their performance reached acceptable levels, and data gained during their usage is used by ZAFT to develop subsequent beam weapons. Besides the cannons, the CGUE DEEP Arms' armaments include a heavy laser sword, a long physical sword with a laser edge, and the standard machine gun used by the original CGUE. The suit also has modified shoulders and leg units, while the head-mounted fin-shaped sensor array has been enlarged to improve the precision of the beam cannons' fire and the accuracy of the suit's attack while it is hiding behind cover.

Armaments[]

  • JDP8-MSY0270 Directed Thermal Energy Cannon
An experimental beam cannon, a pair of them are mounted on arm units linked to the suit's backpack. The cannons' large size is firstly due to its large beam generating unit, which is designed as such to ensure high reliability and secondly, huge, powerful cooling systems to mitigate the serious heating issue that occurs during firing. The cannons' cooling systems occupy more than half of the weapons' length, and rather than using entropic control, they rely on a low-reliability super-Peltier/refrigerant-type mechanism. After every shot, coolant gas carrying the heat is released from the grey exhaust ports located at the sides; the cannons cannot fire properly if only a small amount of gas is left. Forced firing in such a situation will cause a meltdown, destroying the cannons.
  • NOL-Y941 Heavy Laser Sword
A handheld melee weapon developed by ZAFT based on stolen Alliance data. Similar to the Sword Strike's anti-ship sword, it has a laser edge for cutting. It is stored on the left side skirt when not in use.
  • MMI-M7S 76mm Heavy Assault Machine Gun
The standard handheld machine gun carried by CGUE and DINN. It is an improved version of GINN's machine gun and fires a type of armor-piercing round designated "APSV," but is incapable of dealing significant damage to enemies protected by Phase Shift armor.

History[]

After the capture of four Earth Alliance prototype mobile suits, several CGUEs were modified with the new beam weapon technology derived from the stolen suits and became the YFX-200 CGUE DEEP Arms. One such unit was dispatched to retrieve the severed head of TMF/TR-2 BuCUE Tactical Reconnaissance Type from Junk Guild's Lowe Guele, who had purchased the head unit at an auction. At the end of the battle, it was left stranded when Lowe's MBF-P02 Gundam Astray Red Frame destroyed its Guuru sub-flight lifter.[1]

Another CGUE DEEP Arms was piloted by ZAFT ace pilot, Shiho Hahnenfuss of the Joule Team, who continued to use it even after the introduction of the ZGMF-600 GuAIZ rendered it obsolete. This might have been due to her personal connection with the unit, as she wanted to fine-tune its systems to run the beam cannons properly.[2] During the Second Battle of Jachin Due, Shiho and her CGUE DEEP Arms fought against Rena Imelia in her GAT/A-01E2 Buster Dagger. After the war, she took part in a ZAFT mission in United States of South America to prevent the Earth Alliance from taking total control of the country.[3] Shiho eventually switched to the more advanced ZGMF-1000 ZAKU Warrior.
