Template:Infobox/Mobile Weapon Ver.2The FA-178 Full Armor Gundam Mk-II is a mobile suit featured in Z-MSV. It was a proposed upgrade to the original RX-178 Gundam Mk-II.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

Similar to how the failed FA-78-1 Gundam Full Armor Type was meant to enhance the offensive capabilities of the original RX-78-2 Gundam, the FXA-03 Full Armor pack for the Mk-II was meant to add greater offensive and defensive capabilities. The new armaments included one head-mounted Vulcan pod, Grenade Launchers on its forearm, and a 2-barrel Beam Cannon with an attached Grenade Launcher.

Armaments

  • Vulcan Pod
Although the Mk-II didn't mount the standard vulcan guns on the head, it is able to be outfitted with a 60mm 2-barrel vulcan pod on its head, capable of carrying a total of 1400 rounds. The vulcan guns are housed in the left side with two firing ports, while the right side functions as a balancer and magazine. This optional weapon was developed because installation space in the head unit could not be reserved for mounting the vulcan guns.
  • Grenade Launcher
Two grenade launchers are built into the mobile suit's left forearm.
  • 2-barrel Beam Cannon
Unlike the normal Mk-II which carried a beam rifle, the Full Armor Gundam Mk-II had a more powerful 2-barrel beam cannon attached to it's right forearm.
  • Grenade Launcher
For extra firepower, another grenade launcher is built into the Beam Cannon.

History

While the Full Armor pack did increase the Mk-II's offensive and defensive capabilities, the FXA-05D G-Defenser however had a more well rounded armament and did not weigh down the Mk-II in combat, so development was focused towards the G-Defenser and the Full Armor pack was never used.
