EUNI Assessment: Designed at least fifteen years after the original Bawoo, apparently as a technology demonstrator by Anaheim Electronics, and exhibits more Federation-style characteristics, especially its waverider transformation mode. Detachable attack system has been eliminated to increase overall mechanical performance and mobility – waverider mode is especially nimble under gravity compared to contemporary designs. “I-shield” barrier is imperfect but still extremely serviceable for a mobile weapon of this vintage. Threat assessment: moderate/high
