Mobile Suit History and Notes |
|
During the stalemate period of the One Year War, the Earth Federal Forces were trying to catch-up on the introduction to Mobile Suits by the Principality of Zeon. One of their earlier prototypes was the RX-79[G] Gundam, based loosely on the original "Project V" prototype RX-78-2 Gundam, in action elsewhere during the war. Another experimental unit came from the RX-79[G], intended for mass-production. Called the RGM-79[G] GM Ground Type, it used 80% of the same parts as its RX-79[G] predecessor, as well as its extremely durable lunar titanium alloy armor, it had the ability to use Beam Rifles, yet was stronger and cheaper to produce.
The Federations Jaburo Military Headquarters produced only 42 of these, and put them directly into field combat testing. Twelve units were assigned to the Kojima Batallion stationed in Southeast Asia, with the rest participating in the Federation's "Operation Odessa" offensive in Eastern Europe. However, the GM Ground Type project was soon abandoned in favor of the later standard-model RGM-79 GM, which was even cheaper to build and could serve as a "multi-role" unit in both space and terrestrial environments.
