The MET6-MS Casshing is a unmanned mobile suit that appears in the TV anime Mobile Fighter G Gundam.
Technology & Combat Characteristics
This machine is characterized by its appearance that resembles the John Bull Gundam, and even the seemingly Gundam-type head has a mono-eye camera sensor. As its appearance suggests, its purpose is to distract the enemy when confronted by the John Bull Gundam, and it does so by blending into the artificial fog (fog that impairs the main camera, radar, and infrared monitor) created by the smoke screen device set up at the battlefield as an ambush. The John Bull Gundam attacked when the enemy was exhausted.
Armaments
- Beam Rifle
- The only armament of this machine.
History
The Casshing is illegally used during the Gundam Fight to wear down opponents so that Gentle Chapman could finish them off with one blow. Acting in secret, Manon Chapman used these units to support her husband, in conjunction with using artificially-produced fog to give him an unfair advantage against opponents. However, this trick was discovered by George de Sand, who revealed the deception to Neo-Japan's Domon Kasshu during his duel with Chapman. Following Chapman's defeat, as well as the revelation he had been aware of the Casshings the entire time, all the units were subsequently destroyed.
