MP-02A Oggo

The MP-02A Orgg is a fictional weapon from the anime series Mobile Suit Gundam.

Towards the end of One Year War, Zeon lost most of their bases on earth and lacked the materials to continue mass produce Mobile Suits. In order to field more troops against the Earth Federation Forces, MP-02A was designed.

MP-02A is a mobile pod unit that can equip early mobile suit weapons. The cost of each MP-02A is about half of a MS-06 Zaku II. Cylindrical shape in design, it was equipped with a standard 3-panel cockpit in the middle of the cylinder, and a monoeye sensor above its cockpit. On the both cap-ends of its cylindrical body are multipurpose turret that can rotate 360 degrees, and allows Orgg to mount and use hand-held weapons. Typically, on its left is a 6-tube missle pod, commonly armed with anti-ship missiles, while on its right is equipped with the machinegun or 280mm Bazooka. For melee purpose, it was given a pair of extendable claws; the pivot points is mounted beneath the main body at both ends, which can be folded parallel along the length of Orgg during launch. During mass launch, it can be mounted on elongated structure that can spun around, allowing the Orgg to be deployed rapidly. While it had been said that it has higer mobility than RB-79 Ball, this has not been truly proven.

A number of units and fresh-grads from the military school with 250 hours of flight experience are assigned to the 603 test team. The first sortie (operated by a team of three units that were piloted by Erwin Cadillac, Freidrich Catell, and Franz Bland) is a lunar-orbit patrol mission, which leads to an engagement against a group of 6 RB-79 Ball. In the ensuring dog-fight, only a greatly damaged Ball and Cadillac's Orgg remained; While the Ball was eventually captured by Cadillac, both were destroyed under the fire of the two Salamis-Class Cruiser, the mothership of the ball units.

Not long after, the 603 test team are assigned to defend the E-field (the side that faces the sun) of A Baou Qu. With the help of support unit MA-05Ad Big Rang, many Orggs are able to extend their combat duration, allowing numerous of these Orgg pilots to escape from certain death.
