The Space Launch is a transport shuttle that first appeared in the anime Mobile Suit Gundam.
Technology & Combat Characteristics
The Space Launch is a liaison ship mounted on the space ships of the Earth Federation Forces. It was mainly used for ship-to-ship communication, but was also used as an escape boat in emergency situations.
History
During the siege of A Baoa Qu on December 31, 0079, the White Base was disabled and landed on the Principality of Zeon's space fortress A Baoa Qu. The crew of White Base would then board these shuttles and were able to successfully evacuate before the ship exploded.[1]
