But not all of the designs were bad. There was one for a Command Duel that looked pretty good in fact. Four 75mm Igelstellung mounted as point defense on the sides of the head. Two beam sabers, stored over the shoulders in the permanently mounted Aile pack that gave it atmospheric flight ability. An anti-beam shield and a fairly heavy beam rifle as standard equipment and, he grinned, a pair of Armor Schneider combat knives in leg mounted sheaths. It came with an exceptionally powerful sensor suite and the full set of command communications equipment. Give this a modern reactor power source, n-jammer canceller, up to date versions of the weapons, and phase shift armor and it would be in the Gundam class; especially with the kind of maneuverability possible with the thruster power a nuke would give it.
