Muv Luv TSF Vs Other Mechs

[aznxa21]

So how would a 3rd generation TSF,like the F-22 Raptor, and Type-00 Takemikazuchi fair against other mechs out there in anime.

I think they can take on Code Geass Knightmares before they went all super hax flying army killer wings.

Ganmen ftw, it's not like they defy aerodynamics or anything.

Imagine a TSF with the Lambda Drive technology from Full Metal Panic.

I think that TSFs are mostly on par with early UC era Mobile Suits, albeit with a maneuverability advantage on par with stuff from the later series.  A match between the two would likely depend on whether Minovsky particles are deterred by a TSF's anti-laser coating or not.  On the other hand, the only sure way to avoid catastrophic damage in either series is to not get hit, so the maneuverability advantage may be telling.

 

Then again, I don't think espers compare favorably to newtypes, so there's that.
