During the First Earth/ZAFT War, ZAFT introduces the ZGMF-1017M GINN High Maneuver Type, a high mobility mobile suit equipped with more thrusters than a standard ZGMF-1017 GINN. Later, ZAFT creates the ZGMF-1017M2 GINN High Maneuver Type II. Like its predecessor, the Type II features additional thrusters mounted on its body. The Type II's armaments consist of a beam carbine, a sword and standard shield. In October C.E. 73, a group of extremist Coordinators dedicated to the ideals of the late ZAFT leader Patrick Zala use several Type II units to install flare motors on the ruined Junius Seven PLANT. Their plan: to drop Junius Seven on Earth and continue the path laid out for Coordinators by Zala. ZAFT sends several ZGMF-601R GuAIZ R units to Junius Seven to install meteor breakers, but the unarmed units are easy prey for the GINNs. After a fierce battle, all the GINNs are destroyed, and the battleship Minerva blasts Junius Seven to pieces during atmospheric re-entry. However, the fragments of Junius Seven cause widespread damage on Earth, and the "Break the World" incident triggers a new war between the Alliance and ZAFT.
