Technology & Combat Characteristics
The ARX-014S Silver Bullet Suppressor is a remodeled version of a ARX-014 Silver Bullet stored in the Magallanica. The main reason for the remodeling was to enable it to use the RX-0 series' Beam Magnum. To accomplish this, its right arm is modified to be exchangeable, its backpack is changed to one that stores four replacement arms and an arm exchange system consisting of a crane and rail is installed on the rear waist armor. These measures allow the exchange of the right arm after each shot of the Beam Magnum, countering the malfunctions that occurred to the arm due to its intense recoil.
Other notable modifications include its face being greatly different, the number of antennas are increased to a total of six, modified knees and new feet. All of the modifications are possible due to the high extensibility of the original Silver Bullet. The colors of the mobile suit have also been changed to a black color scheme. Besides the Beam Magnum, the Silver Bullet Suppressor's other armaments consisted of 60mm Vulcan Guns, Beam Sabers, Grenade Launchers and Beam Cannons. The "Suppressor" in its name is said to signify that "the mobile suit is to deter and restrain hostile organizations".
History
The Silver Bullet Suppressor was piloted by Banagher Links after the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam was sealed within the Magallanica. In U.C. 0097, it intervened in the combat that took place at the Helium-3 storage base, saving the RX-9/C Narrative Gundam C-Packs' Core Fighter from being destroyed by the NZ-999 II Neo Zeong. This single action of Silver Bullet Suppressor triggered a change in the course of the battle.
