Technical
and Historical Notes
|
The OZ-15AGX Hydra Gundam is a high performance mobile suit assigned to ruthless OZ pilot Valder Farkill. While serving under Zechs Merquise in OZ Specials, Valder racks up more individual kills against the United Earth Sphere Alliance than his entire unit combined. This bloody record earns him the nickname "Dark General of Destruction." One of the main features of the Hydra Gundam is its ability to fold back its legs and use the thrusters housed underneath the skirt armor for high speed maneuvers. The Hydra Gundam is equipped with an EMF shield that can block many attacks, and its main armaments include a buster gun, beam saber and two foldable shoulder claws. When Valder assumes leadership of OZ Prize in late AC 195 he proves to be a formidable nemesis for the defenders of the remote colony MO-V. At the conclusion of the Eve Wars on December 24, AC 195, Valder is killed by OZ-19MASX Gundam Griepe pilot Odin Bernett.
