The RGM-79GL GM Command Light Armor was a variant of the Earth Federation Forces’ RGM-79GS GM Command Space. The GM Command Light Armor utilized the same concept as the RGM-79L GM Light Armor, which removed as much armor as possible to increase acceleration and maneuverability. The increased mobility allowed the suit to perform hit-and-run attacks. The GM Command Light Armor’s armaments included vulcan guns, a beam saber and a beam gun.
First appearance: Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket MSV
Original mechanical designer: Hitoshi Fukuchi
