Technology & Combat Characteristics
The TS-MA2 Moebius is a mass-production version of the TS-MA2mod.00 Moebius Zero and served as the main machine for the OMNI Enforcer's space forces. Omitting the Wired Gunbarrels of the Moebius Zero, which only a few pilots can use effectively, the Moebius instead has a pair of built-in vulcan guns and is often equipped with four wire-guided missiles and the same linear gun as the Moebius Zero. The missiles and linear gun can be replaced by other weapons, including a Gatling gun, a nuclear missile, etc., allowing the Moebius to perform more varied roles than the Moebius Zero. The Moebius also has excellent mobility and can move at high speed in space.
However, when the First Alliance-PLANT War broke out, the Moebius was hopelessly outperformed by ZAFT's mobile suits, such as the ZGMF-1017 GINN, with the average kill ratio of the Moebius against a GINN stated to be between three-to-one and five-to-one. Despite this, the Moebius still proved useful in a support role, utilizing its speed for "hit-and-run" attacks, as demonstrated by Task Force X. The Moebius was eventually phased out of the frontlines, replaced by the GAT-01 Strike Dagger, but near the end of the war, the mobile armor was deployed as a nuclear missile delivery platform, showing that it can still be useful in certain situations.
Armaments
* 40mm Vulcan Gun
The Moebius has a pair of built-in 40mm vulcan guns as its only fixed armament. The vulcan guns are a small caliber armament that are useful for restricting the movement of enemy units and intercepting enemy's attacks, but are enough to damage a GINN's armor with repeated hits. However, they are most effective on a GINN’s unarmored sensors.
* Linear Gun
Mounted directly beneath the unit's main body, the linear gun fires electromagnetically accelerated physical projectile and usually serves as the main weapon. This linear gun is based off the model used on the TS-MA2mod.00 Moebius Zero and can damage a mobile suit's armor or a warship's armor. However, the weapon's limited rate of fire and the Moebius's poor mobility when compared to a mobile suit negates much of its power. This linear gun can be switched with other weapons depending on the mission's needs.
* Wire-Guided Anti-Ship Missile
Mounted underneath the section between the main body and the engine pods, the Moebius is often outfitted with four wire-guided anti-ship missiles, two on each side. When these missiles are launched, they are first dropped before the missiles' on-board computer activates their thrusters to propel them forward. The missiles can be switched for other weapons depending on the mission's needs.
* Mk5 Nuclear Missile
Amongst the optional weapon that can be mounted to the Moebius is the Mk 5 nuclear missile, but this is at the expense of carrying other weapons. When loaded with the nuclear missile, the Moebius is essentially a mobile missile platform for the weapon of mass destruction. The nuclear missile is later fitted with Neutron Jammer Canceller to negate the effects of Neutron Jammers.
* 45mm Gatling Gun
Gai Murakumo's Moebius uses a Gatling gun in place of a linear gun, giving it a high rate of fire.
* Experimental Long-Range Beam Cannon
Mounted under the unit's body, it is an experimental beam weaponry and to make it work with the Moebius, the cannon is equipped with its own power unit. Although the beam cannon virtually doubles the Moebius's mass, it does gives the mobile armor better firepower. A handheld version would be made for the GAT-X101 G Weapon Prototype and even provides the basis for the G Project’s High-Energy Beam Rifles.
