RX-78NT-1 Gundam “Alex”
The RX-78NT-1 Gundam "Alex" (RX-78NT-1 ガンダム「アレックス」 RX-78NT-1 Gandamu Arekkusu?, "Alex" being an acronym for "Armored Layers EXperimental") is the main mobile suit featured in the Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket OVA. It was a next generation Gundam the Earth Federation developed during the One Year War for Newtypes. Christina Mackenzie served as its test pilot.
As the Earth Federation had not researched the extent of Newtype powers (such research would not become available until the acquisition of the Flanagan Institute by the Federation), the RX-78NT-1 Gundam "ALEX" did not have any sort of psycommu control. Instead, the RX-78NT-1 was optimized at every level for the vastly superior reaction time of Newtypes. Test pilot Christina MacKenzie (an Oldtype) noted that the machine was incredibly powerful, almost to the point that it was out of control.
