Notes:
First introduced into service in EC 0001 by Getter Heavy Industries as the mainstay mobile suit of the Romanian Empire, the Leo has slowly upgraded over the years. The Leo has actually changed progressively from earlier models, with only the exterior staying relatively the same. The primary reason for the Leo's long service record has been it's simple adaptability: in addition to a wide variety of hand weapons, the Leo could be outfitted with a winged thruster pack for limited atmospheric flight capability. An upgraded version of the GH-06MS, the Leo Cannon Type was similar to the standard model used except for the addition of a pair of beam cannons on the shoulders and upgraded electronic suite and enhanced communication gear. The Leo Cannon Type was usually used by officers and unit commanders. |
