Technical
and Historical Notes
|
Neo India's
GF13-030NIN Cobra Gundam featured a rare combination of human
pilot and animal. Pilot Chandra Sijiema rode atop a giant cobra
snake to control the Cobra Gundam in its cobra mode. The Cobra
Gundam's design also included a cobra pot that Chandra could
hide in or use as a weapon. The Cobra Gundam was armed with
a flame-thrower, but its main armament was a peepo sword. Chandra's
basic attack involved wrapping himself around an opponent in
cobra mode and then separating from the tail. In mobile fighter
mode, Chandra could attack his disabled opponent and beat him.
This type of attack proved successful until he faced Domon Kasshu's
GF13-017NJII God Gundam in the
Finals. To escape Chandra's trap, Domon dislocated his own shoulder
to give him maneuvering room to fly out of the coiled tail.
Later, Chandra would return with several other defeated opponents
to get his revenge on Domon. Despite losing to Domon, Chandra
qualified for the Battle Royale, but he was killed by DG cell
infested Marcelot Cronos' GF13-002NGR
Zeus Gundam.
