It matters not to me what you consider to be canon or not, as that is your
opinion. But Turn A is Gundam, all personal feels aside. The technology is
the same, the world is the same, and the story is the same. The "Mustached
Robot" may look dumb to some, but it is still a Gundam.

My mistake, I meant Beam Launcher, or Beam Bazooka. I don't know why I wrote
Mega Launcher. Probably because I'm still try to figure out what a
Multi-Launcher is.

So, the I-field the X-3 produces in its hand is a beam shield? I could have
sworn the I-field posts stated differently. if it is in fact an beam shield,
then isn't a beam shield still an I-field, only shaped, strengthened, and
filled? If not, then what was you're point, again?

So, the Minovsky post confirms that I-field motors and Minovsky reactor
shielding needs to have high concentrations of Minovsky particles in order to
function? So what is a "weak" I-field if it has the same high concentration
of particles as a "strong" I-field?
As to how it gets into the casing, if beam rifles can mount their own
generators, why can't a shield? Why does an I-field generator have to be
bulky to be used as a defensive device? Why can't a small I-field generator
be build into a magnetized armored casing, forming a shield? It's not like
the I-field is covering the entire MS, just the shield itself.
As to the G-Savior reference, Mark Simmons just posted not to long ago a
possible idea that suits in G-Savior mount I-field generators in their
physical shields, and it is that posting that I responded to with a theory of
my own.
