FF-6 TIN Cod

The FF-6 TIN Cod first appeared as part of Kunio Okawara's MSV (Mobile Suit Variations).

History
A mass-produced atmospheric use interceptor developed and manufactured by the Hervic Company for the Federation Forces, The TIN Cod was lightly armed with four 25mm machine guns and two air-to-air missile racks. This light payload made the TIN Cod both inexpensive to produce and highly maneuverable, and although production was delayed significantly, it saw action during the One Year War. Although first flown in UC 0062 as a prototype, The TIN Cod remained in service as late as UC 0087 and saw combat during the Gryps Conflict when the AEUG attacked the Titans supply base in Jaburo, South America. However, by this time these nimble aircraft are hopelessly outdated in the era of mobile suit warfare. It's successor is considered to be the Fly Manta Fighter-Bomber.
