RX-77-2 Guncannon

The Guncannon is the second model of prototype mobile suits developed by the Earth Federation. Designed for medium-range support, it's equipped with a pair of shell-firing cannons in its shoulders, and can carry a beam rifle for additional firepower. While the Guncannon's heavy armor means it doesn't need to carry a shield, its greater weight makes it less agile than the Gundam. Only one Guncannon survives the Zeon attack on the Side 7 research colony, and it's soon assigned to civilian recruit Kai Shiden.
