RGM-89 Jegan

The Jegan is a mobile suit from the Universal Century timeline.

History
As the successor of the RGM-79 GM series, the Jegan is the new mass produced mobile suit of the Earth Federation. The suit is lighter and more maneuverable than all the previous GM units, although it is not as well armed as the RGM-86R GM III. Nevertheless it performed very well and thus it was put into mass production. They at first were assigned to the Londo Bell task force in UC 0093 during the Second Neo Zeon War where many of this units fought against the mass produced AMS-119 Geara Doga of the Neo Zeon army. Although at first used by the Londo Bell they soon became standard in the Federation forces and served as their frontline suit during the following decades, through 30 years later in the F91 series. As with many other mobile suits many variants of the Jegan were created over the years.

RGM-88X Jeddah
The first prototype model of Jagan, the Jaddah had less durable armor compared to its production model. In Hi-Streamer novel, Jeddah was the main mobile suit used by Londo Bell force until it was replaced by Jegan. While inferior, Jeddah was put into production alongside Jagan to replace aging GM series until Earth Federation managed to have enough Jegan to fill most of their ranks.
