The MS-14 Federation Gelgoog is a mobile suit appearing in the manga Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt.
Technology & Combat Characteristics[]
The MS-14 Federation Gelgoog was produced using development data seized by the Earth Federation Forces after the One Year War. The mono-eye sensor of the MS-14A Gelgoog (Thunderbolt Ver.) was replaced with a visor-type sensor standard for Federation mobile suits. The shoulders are also heavily redesigned and feature additional control verniers. It is equipped with a backpack similar in appearance to that of the MS-06 Zaku II (Thunderbolt Ver.), with four rocket boosters used by the FA-78 Full Armor Gundam (Thunderbolt Ver.) attached to it.
Armaments[]
- Long-Range Beam Rifle
- A long-range beam rifle, which was also used by a GM Ground Type piloted by Alicia and modified MS-05 Zaku I (Thunderbolt Ver.) units of the South Seas Alliance.
- Shield
- A defensive armament used by many Federation mobile suits. The MS-14 carries four such shields with its backpack's sub-arms.
Special Equipment & Features[]
- Sub-Arm
- Four of these simple manipulators are mounted on the mobile suit's backpack. They are articulated and can be used for various purposes, such as holding shields.
History[]
Following the sinking of the the Pegasus-class assault carrier Spartan during the battle at Taal Volcano, its survivors formed a new strike team against the South Seas Alliance with the Beehive II as their flagship. An MS-14 Federation Gelgoog piloted by Alicia participated in the Beehive II's attack on a training facility for MS-06R Psycho Zaku Mk-II's used by the Alliance located within a derelict colony in Side 4.
During the Federation's response to the Alliance's Operation Maitreya, Alicia's Gelgoog, along with the Full Armor Armor Gundam Head units piloted by Orphe and Dent, were severely damaged by an attack from a MSN-01 Psycommu System Zaku piloted by Billy Hickam.
