The MS-06G Deen West’s Zaku II was a customized version of Zeon’s MS-06G, a limited production improved ground combat model of the MS-06F Zaku II. After the One Year War ended, former Zeon mercenary Deen West acquired an MS-06G through the black market. The Zaku sported a custom red and ivory paint scheme, along with a commander’s antenna on its head. Deen’s unit was initially armed with a shoulder shield, heat hawk and Zaku machine gun, but over time (and depending on the mission), he would repair and outfit his unit with weapons and armor from different Zeon mobile suits. Some of these weapons included the heat rod and heat sword from an MS-07B Gouf, and a 180mm cannon and the big guns from an MS-06K Zaku Cannon. It could also carry four solid rocket boosters from an MS-14D Desert Gelgoog.
