A powerful prototype mobile suit developed based on SNRI's Formula Project. It has extremely high maneuverability and offensive strength.
A total of four AGX-191 units were built, each with a slightly different Combat AI. It is most closely based on the Gundam F91, and is armed with two VSBRs. It also equips an additional two beam guns and a torso-mounted battleship-grade megaparticle cannon.
In addition to this, it is equipped with a pair of Blade Funnels, remote weapons based on the Fin Funnels of the RX-93, which mount a beam blade and two beam guns each. To control this, Units One and Two are fitted with a Psycommu System for Newtype pilots, while an Oldtype-use quasi-psycommu is installed in Units Three and Four.
The machine's handheld armament consists simply of two beam sabers and a beam pistol, stored on its hips. It can also equip a long-range beam launcher or a beam rifle.
A grand total of four Units were built and fielded before the X191 Development project was cancelled, and currently remain in service. Except for Unit 04, which remained in its original rollout colors, the Gundam X191s were all custom-colored to fit their pilot's personal colors.

PICS:
Unit 01: Gundam X191-1
Unit 02: Gundam X191-2
Unit 03: Gundam X191-3
Unit 04: Gundam X191-4

EDIT: Posted pics of all four machines and lengthened the History a bit.
