Homeless managed to translate the weapons info on the HG Union Flag manual, and some interesting info here:

Linear Rifle
The 120mm-aperture linear rifle constitutes the primary projectile weapon; the bullet is ejected at high speeds by electromagnetic power. It is possible to select between the single-jet mode[?], whose destructive power is large, and the running-fire[?] mode, which is for high-speed combat, by adjusting the voltage accordingly. The magazine, which is installed in the front section, [something about the confidential battery and the weapon's shape]. It forms the nose of the unit in Flight Mode, and its streamlined shape is aerodynamic in comparison with other related firearms.
Sonic Blade (Plasma Blade)
Comprised of a super-high hardened carbon make; the blade vibrates at a very high frequency to increase cutting power. In addition the unit, when wielding the weapon, can focus plasma into a sword shape around the blade. This focusing mechanism for the plasma is taken from technology which was produced during the process of beam saber development.
Defense Rod
Defensive equipment mounted on the left arm. The rotor spins upon impact with enemy projectiles, causing them to ricochet in an appropriate direction. It addition, it is possible to develop a plasma field. From a developer standpoint, it was designed because the unit cannot equip a typical shield because of the weight. [Something about impacts, and I can't figure out wtf "shinseimen" should be], there are times when the rod breaks.
20mm Machinegun
The 20mm machinegun which is built into the left side of the drum frame located in the unit's abdomen. It is powerless against MS and the like, but it has many uses such as missile interception and demoralizing fire on personnel.
Missiles
There are two kinds of missiles for the Missile Flag[?]; equipment types for the leg hardpoints, and suspension types for the hardpoints installed on the main and secondary wings. -

Gundam 00 site update
The official site updated the MS and character profiles with new entries.
MS:
VMS-15 Union Realdo
Head height: 15.3 m (Overall height: 17.7 m)
Base weight: 60.0 t
"MS used by the Union. Still retains its status as their main weapon as their newest unit, the Flag, hasn't been thoroughly deployed. Like the Flag, it has a flight form and can be similarly used as a fighter craft but can't transform in mid-air, needing parts modification work for transformation."
MSJ-06II-SP Tieren Taozi
Head height: 18.7 m
Base weight: 112.1 t
Pilot: Soma Peries
"Enhanced soldiers, 'super soldiers', have been researched by the Human Reform League in absolute secrecy. This is the custom unit for the first of those, Soma Peiris. It displays astounding mobility with thrusters having been added all over the body and large thrust vectoring thrusters equipped on the legs and the moveable armor on both shoulders. The operating system's greater data processing volume with the increase in camera-eyes on the head and the large amount of G's acting on the pilot make flying it difficult for all but trained super soldiers. Further, for the Human Reform League, it's a unique unit envisioned for use both on land and in space."
MSJ-06II-LC Tieren Long-Range Cannon Type
Head height: 20.2 m (Bombardment posture head height, 19.3 m)
Base weight: 142.0 t
"Human Reform League Tieren variation specialized for long-range shooting. Equipped with a 300mm x 50 caliber smooth bore cannon. Against fortifications and, of course, against MS, it's an effective unit, attacking from outside enemy range. Its mobility as an MS is significantly reduced so it's mobilized with escorts during military action."
Characters:
Ali Al Sarshes
"35-years-old. Head of the private military company PMC. It seems he has a past connection with Setsuna..."
Soma Peries
"18-years-old. MS pilot with the Human Reform League, rank 2nd Lieutenant. From the Ubermensch Technical Research Institute, whose goal is to create a perfect soldier, 'Super Soldier Number 1' has an enhanced nervous system and body restructuring to adapt to outer space. She has limited emotional range as a result of brain alterations."
