Technology & Combat Characteristics

The Earth Federation Forces was lagging behind the Zeon forces in deploying mobile suits to the battlefield as well as in their numbers.[1] To catch up, the RGM-79 GM, which was greatly simplified from the RX-78 type machine, was adopted and successfully produced then deployed en masse in a short period of time.[1] However, the combat capabilities of a single GM was inferior to Zeon's mobile suits, and requests for improvements came from skilled pilots.[1] The RGM-79SC is a comprehensive performance enhancement type suit of the GM, with specifications comparable to that of RX-78 type machines.[1] Its backpack was equipped with large thrusters and mobility was enhanced with leg sub-thrusters.[1] It was called "Sniper Custom" because it was equipped with a long range beam rifle.[1]
