Technical
and Historical Notes
The MS-13 Gasshia was part of Zeon's Pezun Project at the Pezun
asteroid base. This suit was partially based on the MSM-07
Z'Gok, as can be seen in the claws and body design. The Gasshia
was designed as a multi-purpose successor to the Z'Gok.
The Gasshia's back featured anti-ground sensors
in the shape of a V. The
Gasshia's armaments consisted of two 180mm 4-tube missile launchers
mounted on the soldiers, as well as a hammergun, which was Zeon's
answer to the Gundam Hammer.
