In preparation for its planned assault on the Earth Federation Forces’ underground South American Jaburo military headquarters during the One Year War, the Zeon military forces stationed at California Base developed a series of specialized mobile suits to aid in the assault. One of these units was the MSM-08 Zogok, an amphibious unit designed for close combat fighting. A derivative of the MSM-07 Z’Gok, the Zogok had only melee weapons consisting of 10 boomerang cutters mounted in the head and extendable telescopic arms with razor-edged fingers, giving the Zogok a “sharp” punch. However, the Zogoks built at California Base were never deployed, as Char Aznable discovered the secret spacedock entrance to Jaburo long before the scheduled assault, and launched a hasty attack with what limited resources he received from California Base in time. Nearly 20 years after the One Year War, Zeon remnants used a Zogok in an attack on Australia’s Torrington Base in UC 0096. In addition to its standard armaments, this unit carried a heat sword and a pair of sturm fausts for short-range combat.
