Technical and Historical Notes

One of many new experimental mobile suits developed by BESPA early in the Zanscare War, the ZMT-S16G Memdorza was designed for sustained atmospheric combat. This ability was achieved through the use of the two beam rotors mounted on its shoulders and the turbofan jet engines mounted in its legs. Thus, the Memedorza was able to sustain itself in combat in the atmosphere for extended periods of time, even at high altitudes. Since its beam rotors were mounted on its shoulders, both of the Memdorza's hands were free to use weapons, making this mobile suit highly effective in melee and close-range atmospheric combat.
