Webmaster's notes: Little more than an MS-14A Gelgoog with a large thruster backpack added on, the MS-14B was produced in small numbers, either from scratch or refitted from existing MS-14A and MS-14S units. The backpack mounted four thrusters as well as four smaller verniers, increasing thrust power significantly. The MS-14B units would be put into the hands of ace Zeon pilots like Shin Matsunga and Johnny Ridden and used effectively in engagements until the end of the war.
