Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans Thunderbolt Gundam How is the Thunderbolt Gundam? An Overview of the Thunderbolt Gundam's Strength

In the cosmic battlefield, in order to cope with the increasingly complex situation, the Earth Alliance initiated a highly confidential research and development plan, which was to secretly build five Gundam units with outstanding performance in Heliopolis. The Thunderbolt Gundam, piloted by Nicolo Amalfi, is the strongest among this series of masterpieces, so it is a unit that everyone must understand.

As one of the five Gundams secretly developed by the Earth Alliance, the Thunderbolt Gundam's design philosophy revolves around the core of close combat. To achieve this goal, the R&D team adopted the advanced X200 frame and related designs, giving the unit high mobility. However, the true uniqueness of the Thunderbolt Gundam does not lie solely in its high mobility. In order to further enhance the unit's stealth and ambush capabilities, the developers equipped it with a special optical camouflage system, Mirage Colloid.

This system utilizes the characteristics of basic particle gas. When activated, it can render the unit invisible for a certain period of time, making it undetectable even by radar. Due to technical limitations and energy consumption issues, the use of the Mirage Colloid system is strictly limited. Additionally, while using the stealth system, the unit cannot activate its phase shift armor. Named after a thunderbolt, the Thunderbolt Gundam's purpose lies in its special combat missions, typically involving infiltration into enemy lines.

In terms of armament, it is equipped with an integrated beam rifle and shield, combining offensive and defensive capabilities. Skill 1 of this unit is the High-Speed Penetrating Shot. When the Thunderbolt Gundam locks onto an enemy target on the battlefield, it fires a high-speed, powerful penetrating shot. These penetrating shots can easily penetrate the enemy's defenses. At the same time, in conjunction with the unit's unique Piercing Claw, they specifically target the enemy with the lowest durability, instantly dealing 300% damage. This level of damage output is sufficient to incapacitate or destroy the enemy target in a short amount of time.

Skill 2 is called Beam Deflection Armor. When the unit activates the Beam Deflection Armor, it generates an energy shield. This shield not only effectively blocks attacks from the enemy, providing greater operational space for the unit, but also enhances the unit's own attack and defense capabilities to some extent. The attack power increases by 25%, and the armor increases by 20%. Skill 3 is the Piercing Claw, a very distinctive skill. The Piercing Claw, like a pair of incredibly sharp claws, can penetrate the enemy's armor. When the Thunderbolt Gundam attacks and lands a critical hit, these claws not only deal massive physical damage to the enemy but also trigger a special overload effect. Once the enemy is affected by the overload, they will receive continuous damage equivalent to 10% of the Thunderbolt Gundam's attack power for the next 6 seconds.

In terms of team composition, a recommended combination is the Armor Reduction + Damage Output Team. This team consists of the Thunderbolt Gundam, Akatsuki, Exia, Astraea, and Virtue. On the battlefield, the Thunderbolt Gundam, with its ability to randomly reduce the armor of enemy units, can effectively weaken the enemy's defensive capabilities. At the same time, it can continuously suppress the enemy unit with the lowest durability until the enemy is reduced. The Akatsuki, Exia, Astraea, and Virtue, each with their specific roles, work closely with the Thunderbolt Gundam. Some are responsible for drawing enemy fire, others for attacking the enemy from different angles, and still others for providing support and buffs, forming a well-coordinated team.

When this team is combined with ships like the White Base, Argama, or Ra Cailum, which provide significant damage boosts, the overall combat power is further enhanced, providing a powerful damage boost to the units. In such a combination, enemy units will face even more intense attacks, and their defensive capabilities will be quickly dismantled, accelerating the rate of enemy reduction.

Now you know about the Thunderbolt Gundam. If you want to use this Gundam effectively, pay attention to tactical coordination and team composition. Whether in large-scale battles or critical showdowns, you can deploy the Thunderbolt Gundam.
