Depends on how bullshit the convoluted physics behind minovsky particles and psychoframe shenanigans truly are. Also depends on which canon/time frame we're following.

The RX78 or something from the OYW? Could be taken out by current military.
Some bullshit like turn A/dark gundam/any number of psychoframe bullshit? Ends up wrecking the entire planet's militaries all by itself.

Too be quite honest senpai we have the ability today to destroy the earth, so because a military can destroy something doesn't really mean that it isn't useful.

I think gundam would be great for space, but also for being able to deliver beam based weapons from a high speed platform that was less vulnerable to anti air.

BUT

A orbital laser would be far superior, dare I say a mobile weapon?

Uh, the original gundam OP pictured wasn't that strong. 'Gundamium' is just a titanium alloy. It's minovsky bullshit was on the weak end. It didn't have a psychoframe.

Perhaps even more crippling in the hypothetical scenario, it has severely limited ammo. The bazooka used physical ammunition and only a few rounds were carried. The beam rifle was limited to 16 shots. It doesn't have an AI or autopilot feature, and the pilot has to go to sleep sometime.

I'm just going to address the issue at the forefront of this argument which should be operation in gravity. Using Op choice of the RX 78 - 2 as an example a bipedal unit standing 60 feet tall weighing a laughable 43 tons (the M1 Abrams is 57 tons) if the unit were to trip and stumble whether by Pilot error or guerilla intervention, the shock of impact forward or backwards would be the equivalent or more of a 65 mile per hour car crash into a barricade. While a unibody structure and armor would no doubt absorb a considerable amount of the shock the impact would still have a considerable effect on internal components.

Also to address the situation of ammunition utilizing a cruiser or Destroyer 5 inch gun with unguided munitions, the ammunition capacity would still be diminutive and costly. Each 5 inch shell cost between $1600 and $2,200.

My next argument is based completely on Professional Knowledge. The massive amount of hydraulics required in order to operate the system while not expensive to produce cost extremely more when it comes to depot level or manufacturer level repairs and overhauls. Having worked on a piece of equipment that used hydraulic wheel Motors instead of drive shafts or CV shafts, the cost to replace just one wheel motor was 2000% more than the cost of replacing a CV shaft. Also by comparison to completely rebuild or restore a vehicle moderately cost about $50,000. A complete overhaul of a hydraulic system in a vehicle the size of a tractor-trailer is roughly $250,000.

If someone were to really go through with building a bipedal Mech comma they would either have to use primitive mechanical operation resulting in a much heavier unit that would be more durable, or they would have to build an advanced Mobility unit utilizing hydraulics and electric motors that would be considerably lighter but also much more expensive to repair and upkeep

>>33087112
My case and point in this argument is of course going to be the generic enemy to the Gundam, the Zaku. Its design is 2/3 leg and one third upper body. The lower 2/3 is considerably larger than the upper third. If I were to guess how a real Zeonic Corporation or able to mass-produce these units to the scale that we see in the space battles of the One Year War, I would come to the assumption that given the limited mobility and range of motion as well as the shell cased ammunition that the Zaku machine gun fires that they are almost completely mechanical and very simplistic in design which allows for quicker low-cost repairs and the ability to field more units on a tight budget. While Zeon Empire did field units during the one year war that utilized beam weaponry and heavy armor such as the Big Zam these units at the time were literally one-offs. The sheer cost to produce one would likely have been the equivalent of fielding 150 or more zaku.
>>
>>33089481
>>33089364
>>33087112

My last and final argument, and I swear after this if this post doesn't get any more replies I will let it die, is fuel source.

The cost to build an industrial power plant nuclear reactor in 2002 was around two billion dollars. In 2008 it was closer to 9 billion dollars. Now take that thought and consider what the cost would be to produce a reasonably safe nuclear reactor about the size of a 55 gallon drum of oil. While I am certain that it is feasible and will be done within the next 20 years, the cost of production for such a power source would be in the range of probably fifty billion dollars each. I guess that is within reason if you are only building 3 for an oddly colored Trio of military robots piloted by teenage angst.

Even if the power source went full-blown Prius with green powered nicad batteries, solar, or even hydrogen, your operating time and power output would be considerably less then a diesel power source. For mass production low cost easy to repair fossil fuel base units may not have the longest operating time but would have the best support and would be the least likely to suffer catastrophic damage in the event say that the mech was shot dead in the power plant. Sure you might lose an engine but at least you wouldn't have to worry about violent detonation.
>>
>>33087474
And that Luna Titanium Alloy was pure bullshit strong in-universe which allowed the Gundam in the initial colony ambush to block a point blank shot from some huge ass caliber cannon with its hand with little damage. It just so happens to stop mattering by Zeta because beam weapons have OP penetration capabilities.

Well, if a Gundam just suddenly appeared on Earth, then yeah, it'd be pretty strong. Would probably get taken out pretty quickly without an minovksy particles around to prevent guided weapons from working, but that's not really the point. While it lasted, it'd be pretty unbeatable in actual combat.

Now, if you're asking whether the Gundam would be an effective weapon given that level of technology, the answer is no. Anything the Gundam (or other MS) can do would be better done by a similar non-humanoid weapon. I mean, just turning the Gundam into a tank with the same armor, maneuverability, and armaments would already make it worlds more effective.

>>33089866
Not to break down doors but the nuclear reactor they are talking about is set to be 7 feet by 10 feet and the output is only going to be a hundred megawatts. Sticking with the original RX 78 - 2 argument that would mean even if the reactor was centered in the Torso that it would be right up against the armor and directly beneath the Pilot's feet. There would be literally no crumple Zone and the reactor would get penetrated almost definitely on a direct hit to the armor.

In addition while they make boast that a hundred megawatts is enough power to support of town of 80,000 people that's hardly enough to run the constant power draw of moving large Electric Motors, service, hydraulics, and pneumatics. Not to mention that power calculation is off by quite a bit. The US average for power consumption per household is 900 kilowatt hours a month. A 2000 square foot mechanic shop consumes 35 kilowatts every 12 hours. Add Heating and Cooling to that and it consumes 35 kilowatts about every seven hours. The other problem with your compact Fusion reactor is all that power has to be stored somewhere so that when the Mech is in use it can run on reserve power while the compact Fusion reactor produces more. Batteries are heavy. Standard car batteries weigh between 40 and 60 pounds.

In addition to my original argument I would like to bring up real tactical capabilities versus potential downfall. Realistically speaking head Vulcan machine guns would be decent anti aircraft guns versus slow-moving planes and helicopters. They would also be a decent mid-range anti-personnel weapon. The benefit of having a bipedal unit armed with let's just use my original example of a 5-inch gun, is the ability to step over enemy fortifications, fjord through rivers and get devastatingly close to artillery targets and provide precise direct fire. Since the RX 78 - 2 stands only 60 feet tall it would be beneath the radar ceiling of most countries, but

Anon, stop misinterpreting simple rules.

Physics simply says that if you took something, say a human skeleton, and then applied a scaling factor on it for shit and giggles, it would not have any way of working.

That's the square cube law which is all about saying that different scales require different solutions.

Giant robots are impractical as military weapons but they're perfectly fine for entertainment purposes and don't really need to bend the physics to their knee to work out. Safety and cost are the problems when it comes to the thing in OP walking, not impossibility.

/m/ poster here, Powered suits do seem feasible, but something more along the lines of Power Armor from Fallout or from the Appleseed manga series.

You still need a huge steam turbine, equally huge generator, a lot (10s of thousands of gallons) of water, and all of the pumps to move it, to turn that into electricity. Reactors produce thermal power (heat), we can't really do anything with heat by itself. So you'd need to build an entire power plant inside the suit.

Ever seen Return of the Jedi? You know that scene where the Ewoks destroy an AT-ST by rolling a bunch of logs under its legs? Pretty low-tech, but it worked.

As someone else said, walkers are completely impractical as combat weapons. It actually kinda made sense in Star Wars, because the Empire had a well-established boner for impractical-but-scary-looking terror weapons. That was kind of the point that Vader was trying to make with his comments in the Death Star conference room. Keep it practical, and remember that no amount of impressive-looking toys can substitute for the fundamentals.

Lucas based the whole idea of the Ewok battle off of the experiences that the US had in Vietnam, which, when that movie was made, were still fresh in everybody's minds. The US showed up with a lot of equipment that either wasn't suited to fighting in dense jungles or didn't work right at all. (That's not to say that *all* American equipment of that war was a dud - for example helicopter transports worked out great, and the US military jury-rigged some very effective new weapons like cargo planes turned into gunships.) The point is that there's *no* way to make a walker (or a tank for that matter) into a useful weapon in a dense forest, whether that's a Vietnam-style triple canopy jungle or an Endor-style redwood forest. That's why the Americans were never really able to deploy tanks to their full potential in Vietnam, and also why walkers were exactly the wrong thing to bring to Endor. LAAT/i's would have worked great, just like Hueys did, but for some reason the Empire didn't bring them or anything like them.

Again, Vader was the only combat commander of the OT who we ever saw deploy walkers effectively. That's because he used them on the flat, open, solid terrain of Hoth, which is just about the only place where something like an AT-AT actually makes any sense. Even at that, it took the Rebel Alliance about five minutes to figure out how to use lightly-armored snowspeeders effectively against them. The AT-ATs would have had their asses handed to them if it wasn't for the fact that they were only there to keep the rebels engaged while Vader landed the bulk of his forces.

They kinda don't look like they're maneuvering all that well at all, to be honest.

What exactly is it about the human form that's supposed to work better in zero G?

No mivosky particles means that unless you slap a ton of active defensive systems onto it it will be hit by a guided missile in short order.

It was a YF-19 vs. YF-21 situation.
Both were neck to neck in terms of capabilities, but extenuating circumstances meant one got its shit fucked up.

The reactor is what is generating the particles, so in due time if it is kept running it will be in a small cloud of it.
