Notes:
Following the invasion and occupation of many areas of Earth during the Great War, the Zeon military began developing amphibious mobile suits to increase its war capabilities in Earth's oceans and waterways. One of their earliest designs was the prototype MSM-03 Gogg, and while being their first truly successful amphibious design, it did have its limitations. To overcome these, the improved MSM-03C Hygogg was developed and deployed, and it differed quite a bit from its initial design in both appearance and abilities. Its outer form was refined, making it more streamlined and increasing its water movement speed. The mega particle guns mounted in the original Gogg's stomach were moved into the Hygogg's hands, allowing for much greater flexibility in its attacks. The Hygogg can also mount a large "hand missile unit" over each arm, equipped with a set of blow-away panels to protect the mobile suit from the blast of the rather large and heavy missile when launched. |
