Technical
and Historical Notes
In the military chaos of A.W. 0015, the Frost brothers were charged
with the task of eliminating the stolen GX-9901-DX
Gundam Double X, as well as testing potential Newtypes for
the Newtype Research Facility. As part of their secret plan to
eliminate all Newtypes, they sent three potential pilots to their
deaths in failed attempts to destroy the Double
X. On their fourth attempt, they sent out the NRX-016 Rasveht,
piloted by Abel Bauer. Unlike the previous units, the Rasveht
was equipped with the flash system used by the United Nations Earth's
Gundam type suits. The Rasveht's armament consisted of a simple
beam rifle and beam saber, but combined with the five Rasveht
bits it proved to be a powerful foe. Unlike the Gundam types,
all of the Rasveht units looked alike, making it difficult to
determine which one had an actual human pilot. With the help of
Tiffa Adill, Garrod Ran was able to cripple Bauer's unit and force
him to escape. As the last of the New UNE's potential Newtypes,
Bauer was killed by Shagia Frost.
