Overview

The Gulnahan Ravine is a strategic pass east of Suez, which is the only point in the area passable by large vehicles such as land battleships.

History

Second Alliance-PLANT War

The Earth Alliance created a fortification known as the Lohengrin Gate in the middle of the Gulnahan Ravine following the First Alliance-PLANT War. The base was named for its primary armament, a "Lohengrin" Positron Blaster Cannon. This powerful weapon allowed the Lohengrin Gate to destroy any ZAFT forces that attempted to pass through the ravine. In addition, to protect the Lohengrin cannon, a Mobile Armor, the YMAG-X7F Gells-Ghe, was stationed at the base. The Gells-Ghe's Positron Reflector shield was able to block any weapon in the ZAFT arsenal, even a positron blaster cannon. After the second war broke out, ZAFT forces made an attempt to attack the base, only to be thwarted by the Gells-Ghe's defenses, allowing the Lohengrin to destroy the entire attack force.

Battle of Gulnahan

After the first attack failed, ZAFT organized a larger attack force, including the Minerva and attacked the base again. To aid in the base's destruction, the Minerva was contacted by Gulnahan native Conille Almeta, who informed them of a cave system in the ravine, unknown to Alliance forces. These caves allowed ZGMF-X56S Impulse pilot Shinn Asuka to bypass the Gells-Ghe and destroy the Lohengrin. ZGMF-X23S Saviour pilot Athrun Zala took advantage of the distraction presented by Shinn's assault to disable the Gells-Ghe in close-range combat. Following the battle, ZAFT engineers were given the opportunity to study the Gells-Ghe's positron reflector, which was latter used in their newly developed mobile suits.
