Changes: MSM-07 Z'Gok

Revision as of 13:43, 22 November 2019

Template:Infobox/Mobile Weapon Ver.2The MSM-07 Z'Gok (ズゴック, Zugokku^?) is a mass production amphibious mobile suit. It was first featured in the anime series Mobile Suit Gundam, and later appeared in the OVA series Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

The Z'Gok is one of the heavy MS developed by MIP. Like the MSM-04 Acguy, it is viewed as a second-stage amphibious MS, different from the MSM-03 Gogg, a first-stage unit. The Z'Gok's final design was improved based on actual combat data from the Gogg, but this delayed its development and the Acguy was completed before it.

Among amphibious MS, the Z'Gok's focus is on ground combat. Besides using both air and water-cooled radiators, it also has chemical fuel rockets for jumping in addition to thermonuclear water jets. The Z'Gok is also designed so that it can perform anti-air combat as well as search operations on and above the water surface, duties that the Gogg could not.

The Z'Gok's specifications are superior to those of the MS mass-produced by the Earth Federation Forces at the same period. However, in return for high performance, it is difficult to pilot. Furthermore, it is a costly machine because it lacks parts compatibility with the Gogg.

Armaments

240mm Missile Launcher: The Z'Gok has six 240mm missile launchers (30 rounds) in the top of its head. These missiles can only be fired in relation to the vertical alignment of the torso. The missiles can be fired underwater but they have low resistance to hydrostatic pressure. They are mainly used after surfacing or landing on the shore, as well as for anti-aircraft purposes.

Mega Particle Cannon: As with Zeon's previous amphibious mobile suits, the Z'Gok has a pair of mega particle cannons powered directly by the mobile suit's reactor. The Z'Gok's mega particle cannons are mounted in the palm of its hands. They have high beam focusing capability and an output of 3.2 MW.

Iron Nail: Mounted on the ends of the flexible arms, they are primarily used as close-combat weapons. Taking advantage of the Z'Gok's high mobility, it can punch through the torso of an RGM-79 GM in a single blow.

History

With the success of the MSM-03 Gogg and the MSM-04 Acguy, the MIP Company rolled out their own mass production amphibious mobile suit for the Principality of Zeon's Earthside forces. This line of amphibious mobile suit, known as the MSM-07 Z'Gok, became the most successful line used by the Zeon forces during the One Year War. The Z'Gok was manufactured at the California Base on the same production lines as the Gogg.

The Z'Gok's most famous exploit was the Principality of Zeon's attack on the Earth Federation Forces headquarters at Jaburo. On November 30, U.C. 0079, the Principality of Zeon launched a surprise attack on the Earth Federation's underground fortress. One of Zeon's primary attack groups was formed by multiple Z'Goks, as well as a few other amphibious mobile suits, led by Char Aznable in his MSM-07S Z'Gok Commander Type (an improved Z'Gok version with better power output, high mobility, and lighter armor materials). This attack force bypassed Jaburo's defenses using a previously unknown secret underwater entrance. However, the attack was a failure as Zeon was unprepared for the Earth Federation's new battalions of mobile suits that had just been brought off the assembly line. After the battle, some of the suits were simply left where they lay, remaining in the caves of Jaburo for thousands of years.

While initially produced as a commander machine, the Z'Gok Commander Type was soon mass-produced to replace the standard Z'Gok. Other notable mobile suits developed by the Principality of Zeon based on the Z'Gok include the MSM-07E Z'Gok-E, which was simply the Z'Gok remodeled to have superior performance, and the MS-13 Gasshia, which sacrificed the Z'Gok's amphibious capabilities for improved ground assault abilities.

Even after the One Year War, several Z'Goks, sporting a new dark green color scheme, were used by Zeon remnants in UC 0096 during their attack on Torrington Base. One of these units was destroyed by a RX-160S Byarlant Custom.

Notes and Trivia

The Green Siren marking is applied to the mobile suits of the "Green Siren" submarine fleet which patrolled the southern Atlantic Ocean. Although most of the fleets used the MSM-03 Gogg, this emblem was standardized on the Z'Gok.
The Z'Gok's design was inspired from Alien Zarab from Ultraman. Of course, Tsuburaya Prod. (the company that was responsible for Ultraman) would return the favor with two monsters in Ultraman Gaia themed after two mobile suits: Apatee, based on MS-06 Zaku II and Gan Q, based on MSM-04 Acguy.

-The Z'Gok's success came from what it learned from the [[MSM-03 Gogg|Gogg]]'s and [[MSM-04 Acguy|Acguy]]'s errors. The Z'Gok was very agile and fast in and out of water. MIP also replaced the bulky ballast water tanks used by the Gogg and Acguy for cooling off the mobile suit for out of water operations with an air cooling fan system. Notably, the weapon layouts were improved. Overall, the MSM-07 Z'Gok is considered the most successful amphibious mobile suit line produced by the Principality of Zeon during the One Year War.
+Among amphibious MS, the Z'Gok's focus is on ground combat. Besides using both air and water-cooled radiators, it also has chemical fuel rockets for jumping in addition to thermonuclear water jets. The Z'Gok is also designed so that it can perform anti-air combat as well as search operations on and above the water surface, duties that the Gogg could not.
-Each of the Z'Gok's hands featured built-in [[Minovsky Physics#The Mega Particle Cannon|mega particle cannons]] for easier and more precise aiming. Each hand also had three-claws which could be used to thrust into the [[Earth Federation]]'s mobile suits or they could be used to smash things as well. The Z'Gok also had six 240mm missile launchers built into the head with five rounds.
+The Z'Gok's specifications are superior to those of the MS mass-produced by the Earth Federation Forces at the same period. However, in return for high performance, it is difficult to pilot. Furthermore, it is a costly machine because it lacks parts compatibility with the Gogg.

-Still with the overall effectiveness of the Z-Gok proven the Principality of Zeon would use its design to create several variants that would oriented towards more specific missions. Near the end of the [[One Year War]] the Principality of Zeon sought new mobile suits that would be able to turn the tide in the war that they were losing. Amongst the new designs two would be derived from the Z'Gok. The first would be the [[MSM-07S Z'Gok Commander Type|S-Type Z'Gok]], with improved power output, high mobility, and lighter armor materials. Initially produced as a commander machine, it is soon mass-produced to replace the standard Z'Gok. The [[MSM-07E Z'Gok-E]], which was simply the Z'Gok remodeled to have superior performance. The third would be the [[MS-13 Gasshia]], a completely new mobile suit designed to serve as an all purpose machine, sacrificing the Z'Gok's amphibious capabilities to improve ground assault abilities.

Other notable mobile suits developed by the Principality of Zeon based on the Z'Gok include the [[MSM-07E Z'Gok-E]], which was simply the Z'Gok remodeled to have superior performance, and the [[MS-13 Gasshia]], which sacrificed the Z'Gok's amphibious capabilities for improved ground assault abilities.
-Even after the One Year War, several Z'Gok, sporting a new dark green color scheme, were used by Zeon remnants in UC 0096 during their attack on [[Torrington Base]]. One of the Z'Gok units deployed during the battle was destroyed by a [[RX-160S Byarlant Custom]].

+==Notes and Trivia==
 *The Green Siren marking is applied to the mobile suits of the "Green Siren" submarine fleet which patrolled the southern Atlantic Ocean. Although most of the fleets used the [[MSM-03 Gogg]], this emblem was standardized on the Z'Gok.
 *The Z'Gok's design was inspired from [[w:c:ultra:Alien Zarab|Alien Zarab]] from ''[[w:c:ultra:Ultraman (series)|Ultraman]]''. Of course, Tsuburaya Prod. (the company that was responsible for Ultraman) would return the favor with two monsters in ''[[w:c:ultra:Ultraman Gaia (series)|Ultraman Gaia]]'' themed after two mobile suits: [[w:c:ultra:Apatee|Apatee]], based on [[MS-06 Zaku II]] and [[w:c:ultra:Gan Q|Gan Q]], based on [[MSM-04 Acguy]].
