ZGMF-56E2 Impulse Gundam Spec II (Force/Sword/Blast)

Force Impulse Gundam Spec II:
An upgraded version of the ZGMF-X56S/α Force Impulse Gundam secretly modified by Erica Simmons at the request of Cagalli Yula Athha, the Force Impulse Gundam Spec II features improved battery capacity. It is visually distinguished from the original by a slightly darker and desaturated color scheme, caused by differences in voltage from the new battery on the Variable Phase Shift armor. Otherwise, the Force Impulse Spec II retains all of the capabilities of the original Impulse.
Unlike the original Impulse, which was launched from the LHM-BB01 Minerva in its separate components and then combined into its mobile suit form on the field, the lack of a dedicated launch facility for the Impulse on the LHM-BB03S Millennium means the Impulse Spec II is launched as a singular assembled mobile suit.
Sword Impulse Gundam Spec II:
An upgraded version of the ZGMF-X56S/β Sword Impulse Gundam secretly modified by Erica Simmons at the request of Cagalli Yula Athha, the Sword Impulse Gundam Spec II features improved battery capacity. Its Variable Phase Shift Armor settings have been heavily modified to replace most of its white parts with red including on the v-fin, and the chest and shoulder's main colors changed to black. Otherwise, the Sword Impulse Spec II retains all of the capabilities of the original Sword Impulse Gundam.
Blast Impulse Gundam:
An upgraded version of the ZGMF-X56S/γ Blast Impulse Gundam secretly modified by Erica Simmons at the request of Cagalli Yula Athha, the Blast Impulse Gundam Spec II features improved battery capacity. Its Variable Phase Shift Armor settings have been heavily modified to replace the majority of its white parts with a light olive green including on the v-fin, and its blue and green colors turned down to a darker saturation. Otherwise, the Blast Impulse Spec II retains all of the capabilities of the original Blast Impulse Gundam.

I’ll just assume that the METEOR Units have been equipped with an onboard N- Jammer Canceller equipped Hyper Nuclear- Deuterion Engines; enough to support MSs like the Impulse SPEC II which isn’t Nuclear/ Hyper Nuclear- Deuterion Engine Powered

[@lecursedturtle9385]

The METEOR units canonically only had batteries powering them, in previous media, which means that they could be used by non-Nuclear suits, although in a shorter period of time, and their use is only prolonged when they're powered by the Freedom and Justice's reactors. But I wonder if they did have the METEORs upgraded with nuclear power, hence why the Impulse was able to use one of them.

[@RayFChung]

Yes the METEOR units were retrofitted with nuclear reactors for non nuclear powered MS like the Impulse. Earlier we saw the Lightening Buster and Duel Blitz using the upgraded METEOR's, albeit both those MS were also retrofitted with nuclear reactors.

[@Kayreal29]

If i remember correctly, Meteor Unit 05 and 06 used by the Junk Guild was equipped with an N-Jammer Canceller and a nuclear reactor so that the Astray Blue Frame could use it. So it is possible the unit 07 and 08 are also being upgraded and equipped with it too

[@xxEmmankunnArt]

Extra detail: Impulse Gundam was cancelled for being too expensive and an unnecessary drain on resources. . . . . The Impulse was Zaft's attempt to mass produce a Gundam. The supplementary material supposedly says that Shinn was not the only one to receive Impulse Gundam. Copies of Impulse were sent to multiple Zaft battlefronts. At first Impulse was well received, but then Zaft Impulse pilots started to fight recklessly because they knew Impulse spare parts could be sent to them during battle. Pilots would sacrifice Impulse parts to win battles. This is not what Zaft designers intended when making Impulse. They wanted something like Strike Gundam where parts could be swapped without returning to the ship. So it put a strain of ZAFT factories and logistics to constantly send spare Impulse parts to different warzones. Eventually Zaft cancelled the Impulse project for being too costly and decided to focus on mass production suits for grunt pilots, and make custom Gundams for ace pilots.

[@WestbrickFansGotNoBrains]

Sounds like how shinn beat kira. Constantly changing parts and of courde with the entire help of zaft and distrsction of kira

Yeah, I don't think it would have been that bad to alter the packs with batteries, we at least know about how big MS size backpack mounted batteries should be. For the sake of it, maybe from an in universe design standpoint that is still considered a lot of weight and they want to kill as much dead weight as possible.

シルエットフライヤーそこから発進出来るのなら コアスプレンダーもそこからいけるのでは？

Seems weird that Impulse Backpacks don't recharge Impulse. But Strike Gundam backpacks recharge Strike. Seems like Impulse is a downgrade.

[@StrikeNoir105E]

On the other hand the Impulse is the stronger MS of the two having better technology, and with the Deuterion Beam system can be recharged at any time, instead of only when it has backpacks to recharge with.

[@ZGMFXGN0042]

Impulse Flyer (Packs) system homage of Dragoon Flyer. for some reason it didn’t get shot down while on standby mode.

[@seabookarno1664]

Impulse can recharge the energy with Deuterion transmission from Minerva/Millenium and Destiny Spec II, then Silhouette Flyer delivered the Silhouette packs. Also thanks to Deuterion tech Impulse can recharge energy in midst of battlefield without retreat into the mothership. VPS also reduce Impulse energy consumption which made the MS can operate much longer. Now compared with Strike, extra battery on the Strike packs are needed because Strike cannot recharge the energy mid-battle because it doesn't have the Deuterion tech neither the tech exist when Strike was developed. Not only that Strike need to retreat into Archangel to change Striker packs. Skygrasper as Strike's support jet fighter can equipped with Strike packs but because it's earth-only jet fighter it cannot used on space which made Strike vulnerable when it's run out of battery in space.

Wouldn't changing to the force silhouette recharge it though?🤔

[@TheResilient5689]

Apparently, it doesn’t charge it enough, or at least not enough to effectively duel Agnes.

[@majesticguggag6774]

The blast impulse finally has a good color scheme. I’m talkin a 0 to a 10. The original had way too many high saturation colors going on. Blue, red, green, yellow, black, white.

[@97432561]

Impulse Gundam can use Meteor System

[@Mobius_118]

So, can all of the nuclear powered suits do the deuterion beam thing now, or is that an ability exclusive to the Destiny? If it's the latter, it's neat (and kind of cute) that the engineers for the Spec II said 'yeah, these two are going to sortie together a lot, so we should have one be able to recharge the other'. It's also weird that, despite her being a Coordinator, Luna's never gone into SEED mode.

[@tendousouji14344]

just a rant haha. with all of the technology development, why they did not put batteries on the impulse's backpacks, just like what the strike does. since it can recharge via the deuterium charge, why not it is able to put batteries on the backpacks

@@ArnoldTriyudho Even better: Jun Fukuyama's character in SEED Freedom (Albert Heinlein) is a ZAFT/Terminal mobile suit designer who headed the dev teams that created the Freedom and Justice Gundams (and their immediate successors Strike Freedom and Infinite Justice). He also designed the Proud Defender support craft that turned Strike Freedom Type-II into the Mighty Strike Freedom in this movie. TLDR, Albert "Fukuyama" is the father of Freedom and Justice in the Cosmic Era.

[@HiryuAkaneVT]

I do miss the old combination scene to be honest

[@lancekidder9011]

makes me wonder if the spec 2 lacks the coreblock system and core splender since its implied all the spec two mobile suits got updated with the panoramic cockpits

[@RedCapBlock]

The wiki says that the only reason they launched it in ita full form was because the Millenium was not designed to have a dedicated catapult for the Impulse like the Minerva had.

[@lancekidder9011]

@RedCapBlock need to rewatch movie I suppose I thought the impulse had a panoramic cockpit

[@RedCapBlock]

@@lancekidder9011 it did not bro. It retained the standard cockpit system of the second stage suits.

[@lancekidder9011]

@RedCapBlock that's why I said I need to rewatch I thought all the spec 2 had panoramic but could be remembering it wrong

Just like the strike the impulse may be old at this point but it still knows how to kick ass And does someone know that OST from 1:28 it sounds nice I like it

[@passbyicecube]

Impulse spec-II is cool and sh*t, yes. But there's something all gundam fans need to know: You need to buy 3 set of impulse gunpla to collect them all, instead of save your money with different chassis this time.
