Technical
and Historical Notes
The final evolution
of the MS-16X [Bishop] plan was the MSN-02 Perfect Zeong. Based
on the data obtained from the MSN-01 High
Mobility Psycommu System Zaku units, Zeon researchers constructed
the Perfect Zeong. Due to the size and power required for the
output of the Perfect Zeong, it's powerplant was 3.8 times greater
then the standard mobile suit. The rockets that were used without
the legs on the MSN-02 Zeong
were mounted on the legs themselves in the completed version.
Overall 3 Zeong units would be produced, and one such unit was
only 80% completed and piloted by ace Newtype pilot Char Aznable.
That unit was destroyed by Amuro Ray's RX-78-2
Gundam at the Battle of A Baoa Qu.
