The beam saber is a small device held in the mobile suit's hands when deployed and is powered by a rechargeable energy capacitor. While boasting a rapid firing rate, the beam pistol is only effective at close range. Parts of the beam rifle can be purged to reveal this beam pistol.

The Victory Gundam's beam rifle is modular, with a small beam pistol serving as its core.

It can be mounted on any of the Gundam's hardpoints, allowing more than one rifle to be carried into battle if required. However, the high accuracy of the Victory Gundam's fire control system compensate for these shortcomings.Ī standard hand carried ranged beam weapon is the beam rifle, which fires concentrated mega particles that can damage any ordinary armor not specially treated to resist it. They have lower rate of fire and less ammunition than the 60mm vulcans commonly used by mobile suits decades ago, which are too large for a miniaturized mobile suit. As a result, the Victory Gundam has unprecedented mobility in Earth's atmosphere, even in mobile suit mode.Ī pair of head-mounted 25mm revolver cannons served as the Victory Gundam's vulcan guns. The Victory Gundam is also equipped with the "Minovsky Flight" system, a simplified Minovsky craft system designed to keep the mobile suit hovering in mid-air at any altitude, allowing it to dedicate all thrust from its rockets and verniers to maneuvering. When there is a need to travel quickly, it is possible for the entire Victory Gundam to transform into a fighter-like mode. The Core Fighter can also combine only with the upper body (also known as Top Limb, informally dubbed the "Hanger") or the lower body (also known as Bottom Limb, informally dubbed the "Boots") and transform into the "Top Fighter" and the "Bottom Fighter" respectively. This modular design increases the chances of pilot survivability, and also allows damaged parts to be quickly and easily swapped out in the middle of battle. A limited production mobile suit, the Victory Gundam has a Core Block System, in which the suit's body is consisted of a Core Fighter attached to the suit's upper and lower body.
