What mobile suit would you use to fight a Class 5 kaiju?

I'd use the Zeta, but you have to use beam sabers or melee weapons because the Kaiju has to be defeated in a heavily populated city and beam rifle shots that miss might kill innocents.

Kaiju are huge targets with no ECM to confuse the targeting computer. I'm sure my ranged weapons will be able to hit it. Even if it can't, if they do have some sort of jamming signal, the risk of misses killing people is an acceptable one when compared to the giant rampaging monster continuing its rampage for any longer.

It would just step on a normal sized gundam.
Wing Zero's retarded beam cannons would probably take care of it though.
Failing that, the 00[q] and unleash the UNDERSTANDING
and if that fails, your best bet would be the psycho gundam because at least it's closer to the right size

Depends. UC stuff necessarily has some EMP shielding, but it's probably not enough to protect them at close range. Turn A or G-Self level MS might have advanced past being vulnerable to it with their crazy tech.

Everything else is probably fucked unless it's specifically built for it (maybe some of the Jovian units).

Aren't beam weapons the ideal thing to use against kaiju? They're all ultimately heat-based, so you can just blast away without worrying about the blood leaking everywhere. One GM / Zaku sniper in a helicopter should be able to solo them.

So what would it need exactly?
Atmospheric capabilities, a big beam weapon of some sort, should be pretty fast to make up for its inevitable smallness facing the kaiju.

Wing and Wing Zero are the obvious go-to contenders, and probably all of the OP suits like V2, Quan[t], Strike Freedom...
Would probably go with Wing though.

And the average Gundam is like 60 feet tall.
>>
>>15719446
As much as I dislike the thing in general the Strike Freedom is a high tier MS even without the Dragons having high speed, duel beam rifles, that massive positron beam in the gut, and its twin sabers, not to mention atmospheric flight all together make for a high tier and effective suit.
>>
>>15719451
Very true, but without Dragoons, and against a giant enemy, wouldn't Destiny (of all things) be a better choice?
>>
>>15718829
>>15719447
Apparently, the last kaiju who is cat. 5 is thought to be 600ft tall while Striker Eureka is 250ft tall. A gundam would be a total dwarf in front of them.

>>15719454
>>15719451
SF has much better and various firepower than Destiny which is optimize for close combat, not a great idea when your opponent is ten times your size. SF chest beam is equivalent to Destiny's long gun and it has railguns, 2 beam rifles to supplement. Agility wise, it's a tougher call, they're both very very fast and mobile, no question.
>>
>>15719458
Depending on the size and speed of the opponent, Destiny spamming Wings of Light could float around at melee range, and carve shit up with its sword. Arguably SF could too, if it somehow ditches the Dragoons, but then it comes down to 'does the anti-ship sword cut through kaiju better than a beam saber?'

Obviously this ignores the inherent danger of melee, but Shinn is a crazy mofo.
>>
>>15719083
kaiju would probably shoot some super long mouth laser beam
>>
>>15719454
I wasn't so much arguing in favor of the Strike Freedom being the one to pick but rather why its a solid choice. Destiny itself as a pick depends on how the pilot plays it but I'd say its speed agility and the combo of Anti-Ship sword and beam canon make it a good contender.

>>15719458
I always forget those railguns on the thing, but I am not sure those would be effective because Kaiju are shown to take on massive ass munitions with a category 5 able to tank a nuke so I doubt they'd be as effective as the beam weapons.
>>
>>15719467
>>15719463
Well one thing is that when you take the METEOR out, SF really shines when fightinga lot of opponents because of the variety of range weapons and the multi-lockup thing, would it be as efficient against massive tough targets... it's hard to say. The Destiny is definitely strong against massive targets thanks to the anti-ship sword, but going melee against a kaiju who is like 10 times your size, I would still say that range is the better option.

SF makes sense in Gundam SEED and with Kira piloting it. I'd still say that though it could work against an immense creature, suits like the Wing Zero, 00 Raiser, V2, Double X are better... suited, because of the immense range firepower they possess.
>>
>>15719527
If I had to pick a CE suit, I'd be more confident with Destiny over SF (close enough speed and ranged firepower, since there are no Dragoons, but much better melee if it's possible). But if I could pick anything, of course I'm just going to spam Trans Am Raiser Swords from as far away as possible.

I was GONNA say Arc-Gurren Lagann, but since that's probably gonna cause too much property damage, I'd say the Nirvash. Say what you will about E7, but it's pretty interesting how with the exception of the last episode and the movie that the Nirvash is just about an EXCLUSIVELY melee-oriented mecha.

...Of course all that talk about avoiding property damage goes out the window if the Seven Swell is activated, buuuut if that focused Seven Swell used on Anemone in episode 32 is done I'll probably be fine

Also if things got REALLY bad, the Spec-3 would wreck everything

The answer is none. Mobile suits were built for war against humans, not giant intergalactic kaiju with the ability to rapidly evolve through genetic modification between generations.

Something like Dai Apolon however, utilizing the power of the sun itself, would make quick work of them as long as it's not very cloudy out

Are there any options for something humanoid is as big as a kaijuu? They're not MS, but the Psyco Gundam is like 130ft, the Quinn Mantha is 140, the Destroy is 200 if you count the cannons.

There are some huge MA like the Neo Zeong at 380ft, but few of them have legs so thats no fun. The 200ft Big Zam could kick them, I guess.

As said, the last Kaiju (who is class 5) is said to be slightly under 600ft.
Most class 4 kaiju are around the 300ft mark and some almost hit 400ft.
Even the Destroy would be dwarfed by them. Big zam could kick the shins... or their ankles at least...
Hence why small ms with lots of firepower is more reasonable.

How effective would beams be? No real reason to worry about the blood. The beam would cauterize the wound. If they work to any real effect then any reasonably fast suit with beams would do. The same goes for any mecha in general. Anything with a strong enough energy attack should be able to down it. Even valkyries would beam guns could down them. Generally the Kaiju are only a real problem because of their size and the fact that it seems the PR world is limited to conventional weapons and punching.
>>
>>15718145
Do Mobile Armors count? If they do I'll go with Neo-Zeong. If not then, the 00 Raiser.

Wouldn't pretty much everything after the first Gundam be able to kill kaiju? They're all packing beam rifles at that point. Even then you could just have various Pegasus class ships come down and fire mega particle cannons at the things.

There's no way to tell if a beam rifle could entirely penetrate the kaiju and even then, the OG's beam rifle would be a tiny punch against a 600ft tall monster.
Stuff like Wing's buster rifle on the other hand...

Also, many ms were made for space and not earth so that they might have trouble moving around efficiently, which admittedly is a problem against a 600ft tall monster.

Come to think of it, since all Kaiju are sea-based, stuff like the Abyss Gundam make a lot of sense, wonder why it hasn't been posted yet.
>>
>>15730019
You say that but the average kaiju is smaller than White Base and look at how much devastation beam rifles were doing at the end of the OYW.
>>
>>15730090
Sure yet the White Base is full of hangers and corridors and mostly void and doesn't really serves well as a substitute to flesh and radioactive blood counterparts though you're right but then since we aren't restricted to MPMS but MA why not go big and not go home and jump full DX, W0, Quan[t], 00, etc.
But you're right, offensively even the basic beam rifle of the gundam should be powerful enough. What I'm a bit more worried is how quickly the OG would be closed and mauled by the PR Kaiju who are shown to be quite agile for such big beasts.
Hence why high-mobility suits are still a good rule.

>>
>>15730019
CE beams don't work underwater, and for some retarded reason the Abyss is designed with beam weapons instead of phonon masers that other ZAFT aquatic MS use.
>>
>>15731061
The underwater MA mode does have those rear-firing physical canons and front-firing torpedoes.

But yeah, the Abyss is definitely not meant for true underwater combat.
>>
I wouldn't choose the Zeta or the Mk II. Just look at it versus the Psyco Gundam. In the games, the Psyco Gundam looks like Godzilla rampaging through Hong Kong.

>>15719447
Gundams are usually 18~25 meters tall. Psyco Gundam is 41 meters, and it towers above everything else.
The Masurao/Susano'o is 21 meters tall, I think.
>>
>>15731079
Yeah, but the cannons and torpedoes given their small size wouldn't have much of an effect if any on a Kaiju. The beams being theoretically effective on kaiju are what makes mobile suits viable, but if they can't be used underwater then the only point of the Abyss is that it can move around underwater better than the average mobile suit. It'd still have to wait for the Kaiju to surface so it can fire on it, and if the battle has to take place above the water, there's not that much difference than say, going with Legend Gundam for the multiple beam weapons firing at once aspect.
