Technical and Historical Notes

The RGM-89A2 Jegan Type A2 (GR) was a variant used exclusively by the General Revil, the flagship of the Earth orbital fleet. It featured the same tan and orange color scheme as other units assigned to the ship. The Type A2 had higher performance than the standard RGM-89 Jegan, including enhanced propulsion engines. The Type A2 included the same armaments as the standard model, but it equipped a new shield with a pair of 4-tube missile launchers. In UC 0096, the General Revil deployed a large mobile suit force to destroy both the Neo Zeon ship Garencieres and the Londo Bell ship Nahel Argama in an attempt to cover up the existence of the secret Laplace’s Box that threatened to upend the political order. One year later, the General Revil‘s mobile suit forces were deployed in an unsuccessful attempt to fight Zoltan Akkanen’s NZ-999 II Neo Zeong.
