Technology & Combat Characteristics

This unit is the successor to the "Schnee Weiss", and is painted black in contrast. Because the psycommu control unit had problems with its size and weight, it was successfully downsized by redesigning the operation method of the psycommu system. The bits are integrated into the main body, removing the need for the bit carrier. In addition, the number of bits installed has been increased to 12 because the bits have been changed to smaller short bits. However, the psycommu system itself was not perfect and placed high stress on the pilot, requiring the need for drug administration.

History

The Tusche Schwarz was first launched by the Axis hardliner army coup led by Colonel Enzo Bernini when fighting broke out in July U.C. 0083. Although second lieutenant Rebecca Fanning first piloted the Tusche Schwarz as a test pilot, she physically and mentally collapsed from high stress of the psycommu system during combat. It was then piloted by corporal Yayoi Ikaruga.
