MSA-005K Guncannon Detector

MSA-005K Guncannon Detector (often misspelled as "Dictector", and also known as"Guncannon DT") is a mobile suit developed from the MSA-005 Methuss, and first featured in Z-MSV. Its design is later updated and featured in the Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn novel, its OVA adaptation and the television re-cut.

A ground artillery mobile suit for mid-range support, it was co-manufactured by Karaba, an AEUG support organization, and the Anaheim Electronics during the Gryps Conflict. It used the movable frame of the MSA-005 Methuss as a base, and taking references from the RX-77 Guncannon, it has two Vulcan guns and a pair of beam cannons. Despite this, the suit is not related to the Guncannon, its name was given by one of Karaba’s leader, Hayato Kobayashi, who had piloted a Guncannon during the One Year War.

Other weapons of the suit are a shoulder-mounted beam gun and a handheld beam rifle, and almost all of its armor was newly designed. By using the transformation mechanism of the Methuss’ frame, the Guncannon Detector can transform into its Artillery Form by kneeing and unfolding its front armor under its waist, forming a three-point support system for stable, highly precise artillery fire. This transformation process is instantaneous thanks to the frame’s excellent strength and responsiveness.
