I think Patlabor does non-combat mecha really well, they developed mecha for basically all kinds of heavy-duty work. Most "labors" were probably construction mecha, but they also showed mechs made for fire/rescue/medical response, underwater exploration/extraction, farming/agriculture, mining, and of course, the titular police mechs to deal with the rise of mecha-related crime that came with labors becoming more common in everyday life. I actually kinda wish Gundam would develop more civilian mobile suits and show them doing dangerous stuff like deep-space or hazardous planet exploration, extraplanetary mining, colony construction, rescue operations, etc.

Fun fact/s: The reverse is usually more common in real life: a civilian product that has military uses. The US through its international trade laws calls these "Dual-Use" products, and heavily limits their sale. For example, certain civilian aircraft electronics components can both be flight guidance systems for passenger planes, but also missiles. US trade laws hold the US-based manufacturer or retailer liable if they sell to entities representing those in blacklisted countries like Russia, China or various Arab states. Also, Nazi Germany was actually limited in certain military use material because they couldn't possibly hide it as a civilian thing. For example, the reliance on Stukas and dive-bombing is mostly due to a tight shortage of medium-to-heavy bombers. It's not just that they were expensive to produce, but Germany pre-war couldn't hide any such pilot training programs. Because single-engine piloting wasn't restricted (Germany participated in air races etc.) but multi-engine, especially four-engine, was. Germany tried to establish commercial airlines to justify this, but even then four-engine pilot training would still be highly suspect. The fact that Germany couldn't really try strategic bombing, a sort of attractive doctrine at the time, really hampered their efforts, as well as created friction between the Heer and the Luftwaffe. It was after all the time when an "air force" was meant to be a sort of division of the army in most militaries (air support, air superiority, artillery spotting), and hadn't been its own branch yet.

[@CD-Gaming]

What I believe you meant to say was that the Turn A would become "the ULTIMATE washing machine", complete with triumphant fist-raising and rousing tone of voice! A little historical note: The tank got its name from when, after building these experimental machines - based on tractors - and in order to actually get them TO the front lines, British Intelligence named the cargo as "TANK", their logic being that enemy intelligence would see this and think they were transporting simple water containers! The battlefield was never the same again, as everyone began copying these rolling death machines we'd built, though, granted, not everyone was what you might call "successful"... The German attempt tipped over if if went near a bump, the French one struggled with terrain more difficult than a Yorkshire moor, the Americans saw this, but for forty years after World War II thought they had no place in combat! So, only really us Brits got it anywhere near what you might call "right"!

[@andrewcdno6532]

For me : Farm work (digging and tilling soil, harvesting corn fields, and landscaping). I also thought that welding would also be a good thing to do in a mobile suit.

Another example for racing MS would be from Gundam AGE, as Woolf Enneacle used to be a pro mobile suit racer, with the beyond Katoki fully decal'd Shaldoll-G as his main MS of choice. Another alternate MS usage from AGE was the Rogue Bat, named after its rather gothic appearance. The large bat-like wings protruding from its back were used to store extra propellant and also had radio sensors that acted similarly to a bat's echo location; both of these were added in order to maximize its efficiency in deep space mining operations after the end of the Vagan war.

See all the ethical issues there are an issue of replicant manufacture. They solved that issue with innovades over in 00's timeline.

I mean, Hayato used Guntank's arm missile launchers as a stepladder for Guncannon to repair the White Base. Bright's clearly not amused by it, but hey, it worked.

Let's not forget about the aerial tho Its safe to pilot. It's reliable to use. It can fly! It can dance! Aerial! \( >W

If I had a mobile suit I would probably use it for heavy lifting and likely try to figure out how to mow my lawn with it, and likely for transportation, including groceries. Makes me think of an episode of Zoids. I think it was New Century Zero, the one with battle competitions. In one episode their raptor pilot took he Zoid out to get groceries and in one scene it was shown skipping while holding a shopping basket. It was hilarious.

Surprised you mentioned the Woundwort but not the ReBaund Doc. Like, come one! A Baund Doc that transforms into a giant winch is insane

There's also Meer Campbell's Zaku Warrior that was converted into being a stage for her performances as Lacus in Gundam Seed Destiny
