and i think the Neue Zeil could have taken that jalopy. (the raflessia, i mean.) |
Being a very high-performance unit, the F91's weapons and systems generated a tremendous amount of heat. This heat was normally dissipated through a seat of radiator fins built into the mobile suit's shoulders; however, excessive amounts of heat would sometimes still remain throughout the mobile suit's body. Another method of getting rid of this heat was by "shedding" the heated outermost layer of the Gundam's armor; this had the rather dramatic effect of creating "after-images" of the mobile suit while it was moving.
remember the part when the f91's fins retracted? it did shed the outermost layer of armor. and mostly it's the heat that causes the after-image effect of the f91...after all, it's just a prototype ms.
