Tomino should have studied a few science books.

Generator: 1380 kW
Isn't this around the same power output the turbine of the M1 abrams produce?

Why would it need a revolutionary power generator for this low output.

Did tomino mistankely confused k with M?
And it should have been instead 1380 megawatts, which would be around 1 gigawatts.

Sunrise should really rewrite everything.

The point is that it's a self sustaining micro fusion reactor, not an engine that would need constant fuel to work.

They probably used the tank's ´power output as a benchmark in the first place. Although I agree they should have aimed higher.

rocket fuel and reactor fuel are different, you can run out of one without running out of the other

Everyone knows the stats are bullshit & not what the original staff had in mind.

Read Gundam Century for the original intent before some marketing flack at Sunrise started pulling numbers out of his ass.

Even the guys who made Gundam Century said they were just making shit up for fun. You and OP have thought more about it than the original creators ever did in 47 years:

>[T]he fact that [GUNDAM CENTURY] became an "official" record of Gundam was something that even Sunrise, who gave permission, found a bit perplexing at the time.
>Perhaps because of that, Kenichi Matsuzaki, who was involved with that project and also wrote scripts for the main series, has said on numerous occasions, "That was just grown-ups playing around, after all" (laughs).
>Koichi Inoue, Sunrise Planning Office, MSV The First 2018

>Back when I was a semi-professional student, I made a fanzine with friends called "Gun Sight" – sort of halfway between official and unofficial. That later evolved into a single book called "Gundam Century", which Mr Tomino took a liking to. It became the basis for Gundam's setting that continues to this day. Back then, 'Gundam' had terms like Minovsky particles, but there was no concrete explanation of what they actually were, and there was hardly any timeline either. "Gundam Century" was a playful way to supplement those settings.
>Something went wrong somewhere, and a certain percentage of mecha fans were fooled into thinking it was real.
>Shoji Kawamori: A Visionary Creator's Perspective 2013

Basically they're saying every last one of you are idiots for taking a children's toy franchise too seriously.

Tomino wasn't the one who gave stats to the Gundam.

MS power source and thruster fuels are two different things, and they've always been explicit about it. It's just muh big magic robot fags who assume they're one and same. The same applies for funnels/fin funnels, and why UC suits around that era always had ass propellant tanks.
