The MS-13 Gasshia is a mobile suit that first appeared in original design series MS-X. The unit is piloted by Daru.
Technology & Combat Characteristics[]
Although the Gasshia's body design is derived from the amphibious MS MSM-07 Z'Gok, it is designed for use in low gravity warfare. It is equipped with two ground sensors on the back. The Gasshia is an assault type MS that is normally operated by two pilots.
It is usually employed in assault operations in conjunction with the MS-09R Rick Dom. The Gasshia is equipped with a specialized hammer gun as well as two concealed missile launchers. Like the Z'Gok, the Gasshia has the Iron Nail claws in place of manipulators that are suitable for close range combat. It's final weapon is the Hammer Gun, a weapon that launches a dense, spiked spherical hammer at enemies in close combat.
Armaments[]
- 4-tube 180mm Missile Launcher
- The Gasshia was armed with a pair of 4-tube 180mm missile launchers built into the body. These launchers hinge out from concealed hatches in the main body on either side of the head, and are used for damaging enemy mobile suits or ships.
- Iron Nail
- The Gasshia is armed with Iron Nail claws for close quarters combat, with four claws on each arm. These weapons are powerful enough to tear through the armor of a mobile suit, but they are also capable of wielding some handheld weapons, like its unique Hammer Gun.
- Hammer Gun
- Similar in function to the RX-78-2 Gundam's Gundam Hammer, and later Hyper Hammer, the Hammer Gun is a weapon that uses a dense, wired, spiked spherical hammer as a projectile that would cause intense physical damage to enemies from the impact, and then retract back to the gun after use. While this gave it effectively near-infinite ammo capacity, it was also limited in range due to the wire connection. It was designed uniquely for the Gasshia to wield despite lacking standard manipulator hands.
