More Info
About the Delta Gundam
The MSN-001 Delta Gundam is a prototype mobile suit developed as part of the Anaheim Electronics Delta Project within the Universal Century timeline. Its design was intended to incorporate a transformation system, allowing the mobile suit to switch between a humanoid configuration and a high-speed flight form.
Development difficulties involving the transformation mechanism prevented the original Delta Gundam from being completed as initially envisioned. Its design concepts later contributed to the development of the MSN-00100 Hyaku-Shiki, which retained elements of the Delta Gundam's appearance while abandoning the transformation system.
The Delta Gundam's distinctive gold-colored armor and connection to the Hyaku-Shiki make it a notable design within the Gundam universe.
