Sign in to edit

The MS-06C-6/R6 Zaku II is a mobile suit featured in the Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin manga. This variant of the MS-06 Zaku II was used by Char Aznable's crew on the Falmer [1].

Technology & Combat Characteristics[]

The Zaku II units deployed during the first battles of the One Year War, such as the Clash of Loum, were mainly early production models known as the Type C[2]. The Type C units were developed to be utilized in space and were later customized into the Type C-5 and Type C-6[2]. Both Types C-5 and C-6 had cockpit hatches shaped differently from the Type C and Type F (which appeared after Type C-6), and a laser gun was mounted on the left side of the chest.[1][2]. The Type C-6 also had a Vulcan gun added to the right side of the chest.[2]. Overall, the Type C-6 has enhanced armor and weaponry and is produced in limited numbers.[1].

Various armaments were proposed and developed for the Zaku II, such as the optional parts referred to as the R6 kit[2]. The R6 kits were mainly used by the Type C-5, C-6, and F units, and consisted of two weapons: a 20mm machine gun pod that was mounted on the forearm and 30mm Vulcan guns mounted on the left and right sides of the chest[2]. An "/R6" was added to the model numbers of Zaku II units equipped with one or both of the R6 kit weapons[2].
