Created at Axis, the MAN-05-2 Gromlin II was a massive anti-warship mobile armor on a scale never imagined before. Because of its immense size, this machine could almost be thought of as a battleship in and of itself, rather than a mobile armor. The Gromlin II had correspondingly high offensive and defensive power; in addition to its standard weaponry, it mounted a pair of regular MAN-05 Gromlins, modified into mobile attack pods similar to gigantic bits. However, the price of constructing such a machine was astronomical, and Axis apparently never built the Gromlin II.
