RX-110 Gabthley

The RX-110 Gabthley is a prototype transformable mobile suit, it is featured in the anime series Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam. The unit was test piloted by Jerid Messa, Mouar Pharaoh and Dunkel Cooper.

Technology & Combat Characteristics
This is a conceptual design developed by Paptimus Scirocco during the Gryps Conflict, and was intended for mass production. At least three test units were fielded in combat, with positive results due to its unique design and high performance. In mobile armor mode, the Gabthley was one of the fastest units in the field, and the unique movable frame allowed the mobile suit mode's feet to become claws in mobile armor mode, giving the mobile armor the ability to perform limited melee and grappling attacks. Its armament was quite extensive, including a very powerful "feyadeen rifle" and a pair of flexibly-mounted beam cannons, making the Gabthley highly effective in both close- and long-range combat. However, the design was deemed too complicated and costly for mass production, and the development was dropped after the test stage.

Armaments

 * Mega Particle Gun
 * A fixed armament mounted on the shoulders, power rated 4.2 MW.


 * Beam Sabers
 * Different from other mobile suits, Gabthley can store 4 beam sabers in the recharge recks in the body, each power rated 0.55 MW.


 * Feyadeen Rifle/Beam Saber
 * An extensive beam weapon used by Gabthley and Hambrabi, power rated at 6.6 MW, charged by rechargeable energy cap. The feyadeen rifle can perform as a beam saber, similar to Zeta Gundam's (BOWA) XBR-M87A2 Beam Rifle. It could be stored in the main body during mobile armor mode.

History
Two units were assigned to Jerid Messa and Mouar Pharaoh under Paptimus Scirocco's command. Jerid and Mouar fought against Kamille Bidan's Zeta Gundam, resulting in Pharaoh dying. With the Gabthley damaged, Jerid Messa left the space to the Kilimanjaro Base.
