Stored in the Orchis unit's weapons containers, it is a rocket-guided, 500 meter-plus long cable being encased with explosives. A single missile is capable of destroying Zeon mobile suits, but it is ineffective against heavily-armored mobile weapons, such as AMX-002 Neue Ziel. When deployed, it is launched toward the the targeted area, where the small rocket booster will be detached and each missile will home towards intended enemy targets. Stored in the Orchis unit's weapons containers, the Large Missile Pod is a bundle of 3 large missiles with a detachable small rocket booster at the back. The micro missiles are launched backwards to destroy persuing enemies. The micro missiles are capable of destroying the lightly armored Zeon MS such as Zakus and Doms.įeatured in Gundam Evolve's Episode 4, the 84-tube Micro Missile Pod has similar appearance to the 108-tube version, except that the 28 micro missiles are stored within each of the three rectangular panels, which open outwards after the container is being launched. When deployed, it is launched towards the enemy targets, and it fires a rapid salvo of micro missiles to bombard cluster of enemies. Stored in the Orchis unit's weapons containers, the Micro Missile Pod is a large container which can store 36 micro missiles on each of the three sides for a total of 108 round capacity. The enormous beam blade generated is capable of cutting through any metal that has not been treated with anti-beam coating, and can slice off the deck of Zeon's Musai-class Late Production Type cruiser with ease. Like most MS-sized beam saber, it is a cylindrical device held by the claw arm's pincer when deployed and is powered by an rechargeable energy capacitor. The hilt of Large Beam Saber is stored inside the Orchis' large claw arm. For extra offensive power during close combat situation, each large claw arm is equipped with a large beam saber. The claw arms can be used for grabbing enemy unit and causing massive damage with a combination of the claw arm's strength and the momentum built up by the Dendrobium unit. The Orchis unit is equipped with two large claw arms on its underside in case of enemy units penetrating its I-Field. The Mega Beam Cannon's long and thick barrel can also be utilized as emergency charging weapon like a shot lance.

Its single beam shot is powerful enough to destroy Zeon's Musai-class or Zanzibar-class cruisers, but is ineffective against mobile weapons with I-Field capability. The trigger provides better maneuverability and targeting adjustment of the gun. It is handled and fired via a pivoted control trigger to be used by Stamen's right arm and MS manipulator. Armaments Ī battleship-grade mega-particle cannon is installed on the Orchis right side.

It was also equipped with a large I-Field generator on its right side for protection against beam weapons. In addition to its massive array of weapons, the "Orchis" also boasted impressive mobility thanks to its large propellant capacity, and was able to rival a Zeon mobile armor in combat abilities. The "Orchis" was essentially a massive mobile arsenal, featuring a variety of weapons and allowing the "Dendrobium" to switch to different weapons after deployment for different battle scenarios, from long range to close range combat. ĭeveloped for base defense in space, the Gundam "Dendrobium" consisted of two parts: the mobile suit Gundam "Stamen" and the Armed Base "Orchis". Finally, Unit 3 sought to combine the versatility of a mobile suit with the heavy firepower of a mobile armor. To that end, Unit 1 focused on maximizing the maneuverability and mobility of a mobile suit, while Unit 2 sought to combine the strongest mobile weapon with the strongest strategic weapon. The goal of the Gundam Development Project was to create the most powerful mobile weapon.
