Template:Infobox/Mobile Weapon Ver.2The PMX-001 Palace Athene is a mobile suit featured in Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam. Created by Paptimus Scirocco, it was piloted by AEUG defector Reccoa Londe.
Technology & Combat Characteristics
The Palace Athene was the second mobile suit built by Paptimus Scirocco aboard the Jupitris during the Gryps Conflict. Scirocco's original intention was to have the Palace Athene operate in a team alongside the PMX-002 Bolinoak Sammahn and the PMX-003 The-O. As such, each mobile suit was given a designated function, with the Palace Athene serving as a heavy attack unit with sufficient firepower to sink multiple space warships. Its full loadout consisted of six beam cannons on its shoulders and forearms, a twin beam gun with grenade launcher, a shield fitted with eight missile launchers and two beam sabers, a pair of movable shields, two foot claws and eight large missiles.
To carry and operate such a large amount of weaponry, the Palace Athene's base frame was enlarged and the mobile suit became comparable in size to Scirocco's first handmade mobile suit, the PMX-000 Messala. However, its large size affected its mobility and maneuverability, putting it at a disadvantage during close range combat with other mobile suits. It was said that the frame's large size was also because there was a plan to fit the mobile suit with a Psycommu-type interface, but this cannot be confirmed. The Palace Athene's backpack contains two thrusters to support the main thruster mounted in the skirt armor, and this design improved the heavy mobile suit's power to weight ratio.

- Movable Shield
- A pair of shields are flexibly mounted on either sides of the backpack and they contain the mounting points for the large missiles.
- Large Missile
- Four large missiles can be optionally carried on each of the backpack-mounted movable shield, for a total of eight missiles. These missiles are meant for anti-ship purposes and their destructive power are beyond those of normal missiles. With the large missiles, the Palace Athene can sink multiple space warships by itself.
