Template:Infobox/Mobile Weapon Ver.2The RGM-79LV GM Night Seeker II is a variant of the RGM-79V GM Night Seeker and first appeared as a part of the MSV-R: The Return of Johnny Ridden line.
Technology & Combat Characteristics
The RGM-79LV GM Night Seeker II is an Earth Federation mobile suit specialized in night attacks. It is a rebuild of the RGM-79V GM Night Seeker with only the bare minimum of armor, thus reducing its weight and giving it more acceleration and maneuverability. After being dropped from the CB-X5SGT Gunperry Sturm Type and landing on the target area, the GM Night Seeker II's thruster units can be jettisoned via explosive separation bolts for more mobility. Like the original GM Night Seeker, the GM Night Seeker II's sensor range can be increased via the equipping of targeting sensors in the "face guard" visor over its standard sensors. The full operation of the thrusters allows for a jump flight of up to 400m, and will be used to return to the transport squadron after completing the mission.
