Technical and Historical Notes

During the 7th Space War, the United Nations Earth introduced the Gundam type mobile suit to combat the Space Revolutionary Army. The three Gundam types utilized a flash system, which allowed a Newtype pilot to remotely control many bit mobile suits. One such bit suit was the FX-9900 GX-Bit, which was built to be used in conjunction with the GX-9900 Gundam X. The GX-Bit's armament consisted of the same satellite cannon and large beam sword used by the Gundam X. The only Newtype pilot known to ever use the bits was Jamil Neate at the end of the 7th Space War in a failed attempt to stop the Space Revolutionary Army's mass colony drop. A few of the GX-Bits from the secret Project L managed to survive the end of the 7th Space War and ended up at the bottom of the Sea of Lorelei in the Pacific Ocean. In A.W. 0015, these surviving units were salvaged by Olba Frost to secure them for the New United Nations Earth. However, they were later used in combat by Jamil and destroyed because they were no longer needed.
