Technical
and Historical Notes
|
Produced
at the Principality of Zeon's California Base during the latter
weeks of the Universal Century Era's One Year War, the MSM-10
Zock was one of the last amphibious mobile suits to be produced
- though its form represented the shift from mobile suits to
the new mobile armor concept. With the thrusters in its armor
"skirt" and short, non-functional feet, the Zock could best
be described as a hovering gun emplacement, capable of covering
all angles of attack with its front-and-back symmetrical design.
Only three Zock units were produced, with one of them serving
under Commander Char Aznable's forces during his assault on
the Federation's Jaburo base on 30 November UC 0079.
