An upgraded version of the standard F71 G-Cannon, the F71B G-Cannon Magna was developed by Anaheim Electronics under their "Silhouette Formula Project" flag using data illegally obtained from the Earth Federation Forces' Strategic Naval Research Institute. The G-Cannon Magna was equipped with a higher-output reactor necessary to power a pair of advanced beam cannons on its shoulders. These beam cannons featured new electron high-speed conversion and acceleration technology that was intended to be a low-cost alternative to the VSBR (Variable Speed Beam Rifle) technology featured on the Gundam F91. These new beam cannons could also be swapped out and replaced with 4-barrel machine cannons similar to those used on the standard G-Cannon.
