Name: RX-78GP-01HPM Ambrosius

Type: experimental high powered mobility multi-class mobile suit 

Modeler: MaftyNavue

Weapons:

2 x 60mm vulcan gun (fire-linked)

1 x "Ymir" Anti-ship Sword

1 x BOWA XBR-M82A beam rifle (optional for mid range operation)

1 x anti-beam coating "crusader" shield

    A.E.Blash XBR-SH-83d beam saber x 2 (attached to shield)

Description:

Following the war between EFSF and Republic of Zeon, Anaheim begin to

intensified research for a fast mobile suit that can travel in such a

manner at long distance. The idea is basically needed because the

warzone consists of large area of space. Minimalizing time travel

between each of warzone is one of the key to achieve victory.

After GP-01Fb destroyed by the GP-02A, Anaheim electronics

begin to salvage the remaining body and also to collect the data.

From the data given at GP01Fb salvage. GP-01Fb basically created

for domination in speed, acceleration, maneuverability at space. But

not in long range cruising. So, Anaheim decided to pour it's idea into

a new GP-01. A truly nightmare at speed.

GP-01HPM, Gundam Dual Vernian "Ambrosius" is created based from the

idea, using a new FF-XIV-Dv Dual Vernian Core Fighter system, the

Core fighter is attached into the backpack. Due to highly complicated

way to use the booster full potential, additional operator is needed

to operate the core booster.

The main idea of GP-01HPM Ambrosius is to full charge

at incredibly high speed towards enemy and then dominate them in close

combat attack, while still maintaining the energy capacity for the next

charge.

An anti-beam coating "crusader" shield also given to

utilizing GP-01HPM speed for distracting enemy formation, also 2 beam

saber attached at the shield for additional attack power.

An anti-ship sword "Ymir" also given to the GP-01 for ambushing the enemy

warship.

Domination at Speed, Mobility, Agility, Attack Power.

All of these elements makes GP-01HPM trully a worst opponent at space.

But this idea is scrapped because of the highly cost to produce a

single unit for this kind of MS and this unit would be giving a clearly

advantage for the EFSF army, and also Anaheim decided to approve

another project, the GP-04G Gerbera.

The new boxart.. Tehehe..
