Changes: MSM-07E Z'Gok-E

Revision as of 21:53, 19 October 2019

Template:Infobox/Mobile Weapon Ver.2The MSM-07E Z'Gok-E (aka MSM-07E Z'Gok Experiment) is an experimental amphibious mobile suit created by the Principality of Zeon during the One Year War. It is first featured in the Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket anime OVA series.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

The Z'Gok E was an experimental improved version of the MSM-07 Z'Gok. Besides improved beam cannons in its arm, allowing for rapid-fire, the original Z'Gok's head-mounted missile launchers were also replaced with torpedo launchers for additional firepower when operating underwater. To allow for better cruising range underwater, the suit's main propulsion systems were relocated from the back to the legs to create a more streamlined body shape. Its limbs were also designed to be retractable for the same reason. The thrusters built into its back were meant for jumping and various ground based movements, and greatly boost the suit's mobility on land. The Z'Gok E used a standardized cockpit with the introduction of the United Maintenance Plan, and was powered by an improved generator which gave the suit ample performance.

Armaments

Beam Cannon: Mounted in the forearms, the pair of beam cannons are powered by E-Cap and have higher rate of fire than the Z'Gok's mega particle cannons.

Torpedo Launcher: Mounted in the head, the six torpedo launchers fire anti-ship torpedoes.

Vice Claw: Mounted in the forearms, they are improved version of the Z'Gok's iron nails. The vice claws can be used as simplified manipulators and as close combat weapon.

Special Equipment & Features

Jet Pack: An optional back-mounted booster device used by the MSM-03C Hygogg and Z'Gok-E. This jet pack actually contains a pair of chemical rockets, which the mobile suit uses to launch out of the water and glide to a landing. The expended jet pack is then detached and discarded.

History

The Z'Gok-E is an experimental upgraded version of the MSM-07 Z'Gok and deployed in several clandestine operations near the end of the war. Produced in limited numbers, one was used by the Cyclops Team special forces to attack a Arctic Federation base in December UC 0079.

-The Z'Gok E was intended to be a test unit improved on the standard [[MSM-07 Z'Gok]]. The Z'Gok-E has improved beam cannons in its arm, allowing for rapid-fire, and the original Z'Gok's  head-mounted missile launcher is replaced with torpedo tubes for additional firepower when operating underwater. To allow for better mobility underwater, structurally redesigned joints and other parts were introduced. The arm units can be withdrawn to assume a streamlined form for improved underwater cruising. The mobile suit would also include a standardized cockpit with the introduction of the [[United Maintenance Plan]]. It was powered by an improved generator which gave the Z'Gok-E ample performance.
