The Crimson Lightning Strikes
[Refined & Updated Archive] MS-06R-2 | High Mobility Zaku II [Johnny Ridden Custom] Conceptual Design #015 [2026 Revised]
At the 450-cost bracket, the Crimson Lightning is a kinetic powerhouse. This R-2 variant bridges the gap between mass-production and next-gen Gelgoogs, transforming the vacuum of space into a hail of fire.
■ Machine Concept: "The Zenith of the Zaku Line"
Built for Constant High-Speed Engagement. Unlike other Raids, the JR Zaku II can unleash its Giant Bazooka while boosting at full speed, maintaining Maneuver Armor Lv2 protection throughout the assault.
■ Key Special Skills [2026 Edition]
-
Space Mobile Shooting:
Enables use of Giant Bazooka and Grenades during high-speed movement. Eliminates post-firing stiffness for a continuous assault. -
High-Speed Evasion Control:
Tap the touch pad while boosting to perform an emergency evasion without thruster consumption (15s cooldown). -
Kill-Drive Thruster Recovery:
Destroying an enemy restores 20 thruster points, allowing the Lightning to surge toward the next target. -
Anti-General Reduction:
Reduces damage from General-types by 15%, compensating for the Raid's natural vulnerability.
■ Specialized Live-Ammo Arsenal
1. Custom Giant Bazooka [2-Shot Burst]
Fires two rounds per trigger. 65% x 2 accumulation rate ignores Damage Control Lv1 for immediate stuns.
2. Enhanced Heat Hawk [Resistance Pierce]
The downswing partially ignores Melee Defense. A lethal "can-opener" for heavily armored Generals.
3. MMP-78 Machine Gun & Grenade
Provides constant pressure with 8 rounds per second and an integrated instant-stun grenade.

Editor's Note: Johnny Ridden's R-2 is the purest expression of speed. It doesn't need beam weapons to be futuristic; its mobility is its greatest weapon.
