Technical
and Historical Notes
BESPA's
ZM-S19S Shy-Tarn mobile suit was designed strictly as a defensive
unit, intended to serve as a guard for important military or
government facilities. Armed with eight heavy beam guns mounted
all over its body, the Shy-Tarn was equivalent to an entire
team of mobile suits in terms of firepower. Due to the size
and number of weapons, the Shy-Tarn suffered heavily in terms
of speed and mobility, and thus was relegated to local duty.
Without the ability to operate over great distances, combined
with its sheer firepower, the Shy-Tarn was well suited in its
role as a powerful, last line of defense against invaders.
