Technical
and Historical Notes
|
An experimental
mobile suit developed by the New United Nations Earth military,
the NRX-007 Correl was built with tremendous speed and mobility
as top requirements. To fill this tall order, the engineers
who designed the Correl stripped this mobile suit of almost
every trace of armor and "excess" weight, even exposing crucial
joints and frame parts. As a result, the Correl was extremely
light, and capable of moving at lightning-fast speeds. Due to
its superlight frame, however, the Correl's ability to carry
any weapons was drastically limited to a single, hand-held beam
knife.
When New UNE officers Shagia Frost and Olba Frost were
looking for highly skilled pilots capable of taking down the
Vulture ship Freeden's GX-9901-DX
Gundam Double X mobile suit, they took charge of the Correl
prototype. The Frost brothers assigned use of this mobile suit
to a possible candidate, the extremely psychotic Demar Graif,
who earned the nickname "White Death" during a military campaign
in Africa. Although the Correl was originally painted in a red-on-light
gray paint scheme, Graif refused to pilot it until he had it
painted "perfectly white." With his new mobile suit properly
colored, Graif moved out to destroy the Gundam
Double X.
During Operation Sacrifice, the New UNE's invasion of Berude, capital city
of the nation of Northernbell, Shagia Frost lured Garrod Ran's
Double X into an enclosed town
square, where Graif proceeded to administer the mobile suit
equivalent of a "death by a thousand cuts." However, Garrod
got lucky when he accidentally blocked one of Graif's beam knife
attacks with his Gundam's beam rifle. The resulting explosion
knocked back the Correl and dazed Graif. Since the Correl had
virtually no armor to speak of, the mobile suit and its psychotic
pilot then easily perished under a hail of vulcan gun fire from
the Double X.
