Background History
Upon receiving intelligence of Principality of Zeon's development of a new class of weapon called the mobile suits, the Earth Federation government initially dismissed the significance of such inventions. Fiction is the telling of stories which are not real More specifically fiction is an imaginative form of Narrative, one of the four basic Rhetorical modes. Word origin and usage The term "mecha" is derived from the Japanese abbreviation for the English word " mechanical " (anime in Japanese, is a televised Anime series created by Sunrise. Written and directed by Yoshiyuki Tomino, it premiered in Japan on Nagoya Broadcasting Network For the Shining Force II character called Zeon see Shining Force II For the Konjiki no Gash Bell!! character called Zeon see In the Gundam terminology the terms normal suit (Universal Century and astrosuit (After Colony are used to refer to normal astronaut spacesuits so The is a fictional organization in the Universal Century timeline of the Gundam Anime series Although Federation intelligence agents even managed to acquire the design blueprints of Zeon mobile suit programs, requests to start Federation's own mobile suit research was rejected. The Federation military officials, anticipating a full-scale conventional line of battle warfare, decided to concentrate on strengthening its space armada, and believed that war would never break out because any potential Zeon hostility would be deterred in front of an overwhelmingly superior Earth Federation Space Forces fleet. In Naval warfare, the line of battle is a tactic in which the ships of the fleet form a line end-to-end
After suffering heavy defeats in the hands of Zeon Zakus in the early phase of the One Year War, the Earth Federation finally learned its bitter lesson of ignorance in the hard way. The MS-06 Zaku II is a mobile suit from the Mobile Suit Gundam metaverse The is a fictional conflict from the Universal Century timeline of the Anime Gundam metaseries A top-secret military project, codenamed "Project V" (short for "Project Victory") was initiated, while at the same time the EFSF fleet was being rebuilt in Jaburo under Vinson Plan. Using technology information captured by Federal agents within Zeon (e. g. the design details of AMBAC system), and taking advantages of its own technology and manufacturing superiorities, the Federation began to develop a series of more versatile and powerful mobile suits. This is a list of fictional technology from the Universal Century timeline of the Gundam Anime Metaseries.
The Project V was carried out in secret for months, under the supervision of chief engineer Tem Ray. is a character from the fictional Gundam Science fiction Anime universe and is the father of Amuro Ray The result was three prototype mobile suit models, the RX-75 Guntank, RX-77 Guncannon and RX-78 Gundam, and a revoluntary new warship specifically designed to support mobile suits, the Pegasus-class assault carrier. The RX-75 Guntank is a Fictional weapon from the Mecha Anime Mobile Suit Gundam. The RX-77 Guncannon is a fictional Mobile suit from Mobile Suit Gundam Anime series originally designed Concepts and development The RX-78's initial concept was that of a powered armor the primary design for Yoshiyuki Tomino 's proposed series Freedom Fighter Gunboy Ships of the class To a practiced eye no two ships of the Pegasus class are alike
Project V was finally discovered by Zeon forces on September 18, U. C. 0079, when the carrier White Base was followed by a Musai-class cruiser on its way to pick up the prototype mobile suits from the research facility in Side 7. White Base (SCV-70 The Musai's commander, Char Aznable, sent out a reconnaissance squad to infiltrate the colony and investigate the rumored Project V, which Zeon previously obtained traces of intelligence. is a Fictional character from the Gundam franchise He is originally one of the main Antagonists in Mobile Suit Gundam and later becomes one of the One of the squad member decided to violate orders and started attacking the dock, destroying multiple Federal prototype modules and killing most of the Federation crews in the process. In the ensuing chaos, a desperate civilian Amuro Ray (Tem's son) managed to start up the RX-78-2 Gundam and destroyed the two Zakus attacking the colony (at the cost of blowing a large hole in the colony's hull), marking the first recorded battle between mobile suits. is a fictional character from the anime series Mobile Suit Gundam and its sequels Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam and Char's Counterattack Concepts and development The RX-78's initial concept was that of a powered armor the primary design for Yoshiyuki Tomino 's proposed series Freedom Fighter Gunboy Although a significant proportion of Project V's research data was lost due to the missing of Tem Ray and death of the senior crews, the result of Project V was proven — the Gundam's performance was overwhelmingly superior to any Zeon mobile suits until the introduction of MS-14 Gelgoog at the final weeks of the war. The MS-14A (MS-11 Gelgoog is a fictional machine from the Universal Century timeline of the Anime Gundam metaseries.
Integration into Mass-Production
Each of the three mobile suit models, although all prototypes, saw intense action throughout the war. After witnessing their success, the Federation created several mass-produced variants of each prototype.
RX-78-2 Gundam
Became the RGM-79 GM (GM for Gundam Mass-production type) and the mass-produced RX-79[G] Gundam Ground Type
RX-77-2 Guncannon
Became the RX-77D Guncannon Mass Production Type
RX-75-4 Guntank
Became the Guntank Mass Production Type
Principal Differences between Prototypes and Mass-Production Type
The main differences of the prototype models from their mass-produced counterparts are many:
- First, the high cost of beam rifle. This article is about a Mobile suit, a fictional weapon of the Mobile Suit Gundam Anime Metaseries. The RX-79 Gundam is a series of Fictional Mobile suits in the Gundam Universal Century developed by the Earth Federation. The RX-77 Guncannon is a fictional Mobile suit from Mobile Suit Gundam Anime series originally designed The RX-75 Guntank is a Fictional weapon from the Mecha Anime Mobile Suit Gundam. Although very powerful, it is too expensive to mass-equip, so many mass-produced mobile suits are equipped with scaled-down beam spray gun or cheaper conventional projectile weapons such as rifles, machine guns, bazookas or rocket launchers.
- Second, the simplification of the learning computer system. The cheaper computer systems were not as advanced as the ones in the Core Fighter, thus the mass-produced mobile suits lacked the active learning/analysis capabilities that their prototypes had. However, they do retain the accumulated combat data from the White Base's prototype mobile suits.
- Third, the elimination of the Core Block System. Each of the prototypes had the ability to eject the Core Fighters, which was carefully protected to preserve the pilot and the combat data. The Core Fighter was a type of escape system, and was lacked by all mass-produced suits.
- Fourth, the simplifying of the Armor materials. The Luna Titanium was replaced by a more cheaper titanium alloy.
