If its on its chest its also not directional, if someone comes from the side then Freedom cant easily block them, and if someone comes in from behind Freedom would need to do a full 180 degree turn. Also, if its not a chest cannon then Freedom loses its 'alpha strike' where it can take down five targets at once. I realize Freedom is overpowered, but it would be an offensive downgrade and a defensive upgrade for a mobile suit that never gets hit anyway. Meh, I just don't believe the shield is mounted on its chest, or atleast I won't until I see it.
