Argama-class

In Zeta Gundam, the Argama-class assault carriers, were introduced as a successor to the original Pegasus-class mobile suit carrier. To that end, the class is designed to be a mobile suit carrier, and serves as flagships for the Anti-Earth Union Group. The Argama-class carries five main guns, a heavy Mega Beam Cannon and two twin beam guns, as well as eight mobile suits which may be launched on two catapults.

The Argama class entered service in UC 0088, as the civil war between the Titans and the Anti Earth Union Group began to pick up. Two Argama class vessles were built, the Argama and the Pegasus III, named in tribute to the Pegasus class.

The most famous ship of this class was the Argama, which became the flagship for Bright Noa, and Kamille Bidan's Zeta Gundam. The Argama saw much action during the Gryps Conflict, and survived into ZZ Gundam, where the mission for the AEUG shifted from fighting the Titans to fighting the Axis Zeon, now under the name Neo Zeon. During this new conflict, the Argama was upgraded with an extremely powerful hyper mega particle cannon, which was used in a failed attempt to destroy the asteroid base Axis.
