MSN-X133/St Storm Calamity Gundam

A heavily modified GAT-X133 Sword Calamity Gundam, the GAT-X133/St Storm Calamity Gundam (also referred to simply as Storm Calamity) is an Assault-type Mobile Suit designed to improve upon the base machine's capabilities in almost every way, using technologies of various other timelines to do so. The end result is a beast of a Mobile Suit as lethal at ranged combat as it is in melee

Technology & Combat Characteristics
Using the Sword Calamity as a baseline, the Storm Calamity retains much of the baseline machine's strengths in melee combat while simultaneously amplifying its overall capability. The biggest change to its overall combat performance is the change in power source from the standard High Capacity Energy Battery to a Minovsky Ultra-Compact Fusion Reactor, giving the machine a vastly superior operating time compared to its template machine. Add in that this reactor is one taken from a Doven Wolf, which boasts one of the strongest power-plants of any mass-production early-UC era Mobile Suit at a generator output of 5250kW, and this means that the Storm Calamity is an MS with plenty of power to spare. The introduction of Movable Frame and Magnetic Coating technology into the core design helps to greatly reduce the machine's weight and reduce its size profile a bit while also enhancing the machine's agility. The suit's controls are aided by a Quasi-Psycommu System, allowing for faster reaction times as the suit is now partially controlled by the pilot's thoughts, even without the pilot needing to be a Newtype or similar.

Defensively, the machine retains the original Sword Calamity's Trans-Phase Armor, now made much stronger by the presence of the Minovsky Reactor, and is reinforced on the armor's outer layer by the application of Nano-Laminate Armor, the multi-layered metallic paint greatly enhancing the machine's physical resistance while also granting a near immunity to energy weapons. It does not bear quite the same level of durability as the Nano-Laminate Armor of Post-Disaster Mobile Suits due to the lack of an Ahab Reactor, however, so it is slightly more vulnerable to damage inflicted by solid-shell and physical melee weaponry, though the retention of Trans-Phase Armor means that the machine is still an incredibly tough nut to crack, even when abusing the traditional weakness of Nano-Laminate Armor. Napalm and plasma-based weapons can also melt the Nano-Laminate Armor more easily, while a Beam Weapon of sufficiently high strength can, theoretically, overpower the armor's diffusing and deflective properties.

Offensively, the Mobile Suit retains much of the template's base kit, now modified extensively by technologies introduced from units both within and without the Cosmic Era. The old "Panzer Eisen" Rocket Anchors are replaced with the arm-integrated EQS1358 Rocket Anchors of the Strike E, modified with Heat Wire tech from the Gouf Custom to create the EQS1358/H Heat Anchors. The Heat Blade technology of the Gouf Custom's melee weapon has also been applied to both the "Armor Schneider" Combat Knives and "Schwert Gewehr" Anti-Ship Swords, enhancing their combat capabilities. The "Midas Messer" Beam Boomerangs are replaced by a pair of Drive Arms, derived from the 00 Gundam's GN Drive engine housings, which mount a pair of Anti-Beam Shields based on those of the Blau Calamity Gundam, the shields themselves now modified into Shield Boosters to enhance the Mobile Suit's speed. The "Scylla" has been brought back up to the power level of the Aegis and Calamity thanks to the Minovsky Reactor. Additional new armaments include the addition of a point-defense grid, something the baseline Calamity Series sorely lacked, with the machine capable of mounting both a head-mounted Vulcan Pod and arm-mounted Dual Linear Gun pods. A new Linear Cannon built using the Gundam Barbatos' 300mm Smoothbore Cannon was also added, allowing the machine a potent ranged option that could not be counted by anti-beam defensive barriers.

Armaments
A custom Vulcan Pod developed based on the VCU-505EX-V*B/Ver.012 Vulcan Pod used by the AEUG's Gundam Mk II. Just like the template, the system has an assymetrical design. The left side contains a quarter of 20mm Gauss Guns that fire two at a time in the same manner as an X-Wing's Laser Cannons, while the right side contains a counterbalance and the ammo magazine, the two sides connected by an ammo belt that runs behind the head. Due to the smaller caliber of the Gauss Guns compared to the original Vulcan Pod's guns, as well as the difference in firing mechanisms eliminating the need for a firing charge, the ammunition capacity of the vulcans is nearly quadruple that of the original. Modified "Armor Schneider" Combat Knives stored in the machine's legs when not in use. The inclusion of Heat Blade technology allows the blades to be super-heated, allowing for greater anti-armor capability, and also allows them to block Beam Sabers to an extent. All the same, these are still emergency weapons, and as such are only used if the "Schwert Gewehr Kai" are otherwise innaccessible.
