Miscellaneous

Operation Apollo is a conflict of the Gryps War, featured in Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam.

Aftermath

Following the battle, Scirocco and the Dogosse Giar would leave Von Braun, and command of the occupation was transferred to Jamaican. Secretly, Scirocco believed that the AEUG would attempt and succeed to recapture Von Braun City from the Titans and sought to have Jamaican take the blame.

The Titans victory during Operation Apollo gained them significant political support from the Earth Federate. Six days following the operation a vote was held by the Federation Senate and a sizable portion of the Federation Forces were placed under the command of the Titans.
