Acidalia (アキダリア Akidaria?) is a Martian Kataphrakt that appears in the ALDNOAH.ZERO Gaiden: Twin Gemini side-story manga. It is piloted by both Viscountess Libertina and Viscountess Libitina, Orbital Knights.
Technology & Combat Characteristics[]
This kataphrakt can generate electromagnetic impulses which can disable any electronic devices around it, even if they are shielded against EMP. Furthermore it can fire small projectiles which take over enemy units, allowing them to be used as puppets. This is also the main reason why the Acidalia requires two pilots-one controls the Acidalia while the other controls the "puppets".
Its strongest weapon is made by transforming the kataphrakt into a stationary turret. While it is immobile while charging it, the electrical fields protect it from enemy fire. Once charging is complete, it unleashes an immense blast of energy capable of destroying a small mountain.
Armaments[]
