The second part of the MS-16X [Bishop] plan lead to the MSN-01 High Mobility Psycommu System Zaku. With this suit the army of the Principality continued their research into Newtype and Newtype related suits. Since Minovsky particles did not effect brainwaves this proved to be an important asset. Due to the problem of speed found in the MS-06Z Psycommu System Zaku, the legs of the MS-06Z were removed and replaced high output rocket verniers, thus yielding the MSN-01 High Mobility Psycommu System Zaku. Since the MSN-01 used many of the same parts as MS-06Z, the designers were unable to gain any satisfactory results under high speed testing, so they relied their high speed testing data on the MAN-03 Braw Bro. Zeon scientists continued to try to make the psycommu system smaller, but ran into many problems, which led to the creation of the MSN-02 Zeong.
