Hmmm the Tanhauser clearly direct at the back of A.A. still submerging on the sea level i dont know if its hit at the engine propulsion or the missile ammunition stowage at the rear would result horrific explosion from the inside. |

Probably just hit water. The Tannhauser is essentially the same as the Lohengrin cannons, and positron cannons are, from what I understand, antimatter beam cannons. There was a very good reason why Murrue refused to use the Lohengrins within the Earth's atmosphere on a target, and that massive explosion we saw is likely that reason.

OR then again, he could've just ejected the whole cockpit and the giant wave covered his descent to the water. It's hard to believe, but plausible. OR, we can all just blame it on Destiny's bad writing. For some reason, I loved that show, but by god, it had plot holes larger than the pacific ocean.

You're thinking of the effects when a conventional weapon hits water. However, the Tannhauser fires off positrons as part of this mechanism, so it'll cause a huge explosion if it hits anything with a quantity of electrons. Water has plenty of electrons, so we end up with that huge explosion.

Akatsuki's anti-beam defensive system reflects.
Next, whether or not it is really possible for Akatsuki's armor to withstand the powers of a positron cannon, we do not know. We lack information; we don't know exactly how or what Akatsuki's armor coating is made up of. However, positron cannons are from Orb, in case you didn't know. I wouldn't be surprised if Akatsuki actually has the accurate defenses against it.

Well, it should. But again, we don't know. I know that the standard GINN already had ejector pods, invented in CE 72, or something, which greatly helps the safety of the pilot. But maybe they did not manage to add that function in the Strike. Maybe Kira was too shocked to use it. He only had give or take 5 seconds to do it. Again, blame it on the lack of info on CE suits.

Exactly how defensive are they? We still lack information. Yes, we do know briefly what it's made up of. That's why I added the word "exactly".

Wait Mwu reflected an antimatter-beam using mirrors?!?! God I love gundam physics. Although I shouldn't be surprised considering an antimatter beam itself is pretty ridiculous. (it is an antimatter beam right?)

When a low-energy positron collides with a low-energy electron, annihilation occurs, resulting in the production of two gamma ray photons I do remember that though. And he said that the positron beam might not be powerful enough to annihilate the electrons in the mirror and the gold armor. Especially because mirrors' electronic configuration are supposed to be pretty strong. Of course, what I am saying could be making absolutely no sense as this concept is way beyond my years and I am only saying what I understand.
