OZ-00MS2B Tallgeese III

Designed during the last days of the Eve Wars conflicts of AC 195, the OZ-00MS2B Tallgeese III was intended to be another personal mobile suit of OZ leader Treize Khushrenada. However, its advanced weaponry took a while to develop, and the Tallgeese III wasn’t ready in time for the war’s end. However, the completed Tallgeese III ended up in the care of the new Earth Sphere United Nation’s Preventers agency, and it was later used in combat by Zechs Merquise – former leader of White Fang and now a Preventer agent, codenamed “Wind.” The Tallgeese III made its first appearance during the Mariemaia Army’s revolt on Christmas Eve in AC 196. With the power of the Tallgeese III, Zechs almost single-handedly destroyed or held off many of the Mariemaia Army’s new MMS-01 Serpent units. The Tallgeese III was a major improvement over the previous OZ-00MS Tallgeese and OZ-00MS2 Tallgeese II designs. For close combat, the Tallgeese III mounted a large shield which contained a retractable heat rod similar to that previously used on Zechs’ OZ-13MS Gundam Epyon. The traditional pair of beam sabers remained intact, though the addition of a pair of head-mounted vulcan guns for close-range defense was a minor improvement. The Tallgeese III’s primary weapon was its mega cannon, which replaced the original Tallgeese’s dobergun. The mega cannon was extremely powerful – almost as powerful as the XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero‘s twin buster rifle. Zechs used the Tallgeese III’s mega cannon to destroy the Mariemaia Army’s MO-III asteroid base with one shot.
