The MSA-003K Nemo Cannon was an MSA-003 Nemo variant equipped with a long shield booster for bombardment use. Because the dual shield booster was developed to match the AEUG’s common standards, it could be used indiscriminately by any machine. Another useful feature was that the shield contained its own generator, so the mega particle cannon could be used regardless of the generator output of the machine itself. The Nemo Cannon was equipped with a face cover to protect the sensors in its head, and together with its color scheme this gave the machine a very different image. The dual shield booster included an extending arm that could latch onto the arm or backpack of a mobile suit. Using these arms, the Nemo Cannon could carry a single booster on its arm or two on its backpack. The dual shield booster also had an anti-beam coating and housed a diffuse beam barrier emitter for defensive purposes. It’s unclear whether the latter device was an I-field or a defensive “spread beam gun” like those used by various Titans Test Team mobile suits.
