Technical
and Historical Notes |
The JMA-0530 Walking Dome "WaDom" was one of the many
suits that the Dianna Counter forces used in their mission to return
to the Earth. The WaDom's main armament consisted of a powerful
beam cannon, which could fire in short bursts (longer if an external
generator booster was attached). The beam cannon was powerful enough
to destroy an entire city or even an Aspite
ship in one hit. The WaDom was also equipped with missiles and anti
air vulcans. Due to the WaDom's massive height of 40 meters it was
also very effective in kicking and punching for close range assaults.
In case of explosive damage to the main body, part of it could be
detached for safety. The armor was even strong enough to be able
to stand up to the Militia's airborne force without any damage at
all. However, due to their size, WaDoms were rather ineffective
against close combat mobile suits. The WaDom was the backbone of
the Dianna Counter army, but it was also used by the Moonrace forces
stationed on the space station Zacktraeger. One of the first units
to be used on the Earth was piloted by Poe Aijee, and her attacks
on Inglessa would lead to the awakening of the ancient SYSTEM ∀-99 (WD-M01) ∀ Gundam.
