The RGM-109 Heavygun was Anaheim Electronics’ first attempt at a miniaturized mobile suit. Based on its test data, Anaheim developed the refined Heavygun II, initially designated as RGM-111. However, in UC 0110 the EFF initiated the Advanced Tactical Mobile Suit (ATMS) project to select its next mainline mobile suit and thus canceled its orders for the RGM-111. Half of the Heavygun II team was reassigned to develop Anaheim’s ATMS design, the MSA-0120 Draig. The remaining team members continued to improve the design, which was redesignated as RGM-111X. Following the ATMS project, the EFF decided to adopt SNRI’s F-series mobile suits, although Anaheim’s help was needed in refining the F70 Cannon Gundam for mass production as the F71 G-Cannon. Development data from the Heavygun II was integrated into the F71. The Heavygun II’s armaments included vulcan guns, a beam rifle, a beam saber, a hyper bazooka and a pair of 4-tube grenade racks.
