[edit] NRX-0013 Gundam Virsago
It was based on Old Earth Federation's Gundam, GB-9700 Gundam Belphagor, and shares several features with its ancestor like the extendable claw arms and sonic weapon. The Virsago was equipped with an extremely powerful Megasonic Gun, which came second in terms of destructive power to the satellite cannon of the GX-9900 Gundam X. Unlike Gundams from 7th Space War era, Gundam Virsago doesn't have the Flash System to control Mobile Bit. It was also not compatible with the G-Falcon fighter, either. Virsago was piloted by one of the Frost brothers, Shagia Frost, and was often referred to as “Ghost Gundam” because of its rather spooky-looking appearance. Shagia’s Gundam was later upgraded to the NRX-0013-CB Gundam Virsago Chest Break.
[edit] NRX-0013-CB Gundam Virsago Chest Break
In the anime series Gundam X, the Gundam Virsago Chest Break is the upgraded version of the NRX-0013 Gundam Virsago. This upgrade was necessary, because new mobile suits were developed and also the GX-9901-DX Gundam Double X was stolen by the Freeden crew. The Gundam Virsago Chest Break featured new back wings for use with the satellite system collector, which were used in conjunction with his brother Olba's NRX-0015-HC Gundam Ashtaron Hermit Crab's Satellite Launcher. The Satellite Launcher has firepower equal to GX-9901-DX Gundam Double X's Twin Satellite Cannon. Gundam Virsago Chest Break also has three mega sonic scannon instead of just one, making it deadly as a solo unit as well. The upgraded Virsago was severely damaged in the last battle between the New Earth Federation and Space Revolutionary Army, and Shagia himself was crippled.
