History
First deployed by the 185th Airborne Paratrooper division during the initial Earth drop operation, This enhanced MS-05 Zaku variant featured the inclusion of MS-06 parts, and for this reason, it is strikingly similar to the Zaku II in appearance. Among its various modifications, it was fitted with a different head component, significantly enhanced arm parts featuring additional armor on the shoulders, an anti-drop chain, and an I-field generator for anti-radiation purposes. Its main armaments were an ZMP-50D/120mm machine gun, an Atomic bazooka that was to be used as an anti-fortress weapon, and a Heat knife, although this weapon would be replaced by a Heat hawk. Most notable among this unit's pilots is the distinguished Alan "Bravo" Sinclair, an Operation British veteran.
