Technology & Combat Characteristics

Listed as a Prototype Close Quarters Combat mobile suit, the Tachyon Phase of Extreme Gundam is noted to possess powerful melee attacks and thick armor, through the use of Tachyon Slicer – a gigantic sword stored on the back of the suit. To make up for the total lack of ranged weaponry, the Extreme Gundam Tachyon Phase is capable of generating and hurling gigantic electric spheres several times the size of the Extreme Tachyon at its enemies by detaching its forearms. When the Extreme Gundam uses this pack, its faceplate opens up to reveal a secondary one resembling that of those used on traditional Gundam designs and "ears" unfold, giving it a striking resemblance to the XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero. The yellow v-fins also separate from the white ones and are raised up a few inches.

History

The Extreme Gundam is a pilot-less mobile suit. Inside it is a bodiless core named "EX-". The Tachyon Phase serves as the final boss of Mobile Suit Gundam Extreme Versus if certain conditions are met during a play through of the Arcade mode.

In Gundam EXA, EX- develops the Tachyon Phase using data from Extreme Gundam Type Leos Xenon Phase.
