| Model number: YHC-21MSM Code name: Ah-Skal Marine Unit type: aquatic assault mobile suit Manufacturer: Younghusband Company Operator: ESC (Earth-Space Coalition) First deployment: L.C. 214 Accommodation: pilot only, in standard cockpit in torso Dimensions: overall height 19.89 meters Weight: max gross weight 47.17 metric tons Armor materials: Meraxium alloy/ceramic composite Powerplant: fusion reactor, power output rating 3310 kW Equipment and design features: sensors, range 19200 meters Fixed armaments: 1 x hard steel knife, stored in backpack, hand-carried in use; shield, mounted on left arm Optional hand armaments: 1 x torpedo bazooka, hand-carried in use Techical and Historical Notes:-In L.C. 213, an arms race between rival mobile suit companies was started. The goal was to create a successor to the outdated Nimbus series, worthy of serving as ESC's new main frontline unit. Although these companies were all under ESC's control, ESC encouraged healthy competition between them, so that many prototypes can be deployed, tested and assessed.
A variant of the YHC-21MS Ah-Skal was completed early in LC 214. Dubbed, "Ah-Skal Marine", it was similar cosmetically to its predecessor, only with a different color scheme. However, there was more to that than just a new paint job. The mobile suit's thrusters were replaced by small turbines, that helped it move underwater. Because of the change in internal equipment, it could no longer function in space. However, it maintained the same mobility on land, and on water its speed and agility was improved significantly.
Because beam weapons were known to lose cohesion underwater, it was instead armed with torpedoes and solid knives. Specializing in depths that would crush other mobile suits, the Ah-Skal Marine sports thicker armor. In LC 214, this mobile suit proved that the ESC is capable of dispatching its mobile forces to any part of the Earth, maintaining order and security in these troubled times. - Quote :
