As the Maganac Corps of the Middle East region waged an underground war of resistance against the encroaching military control of OZ and the United Earth Sphere Alliance, many Maganac Corps members and squad leaders customized their Maganac mobile suits. One such customized model was operated by Rashid Kurama, leader of the Maganac Corps. In addition to a commander’s antenna on the head and stylized shoulder armor similar to that on the XXXG-01SR Gundam Sandrock, Rashid’s Maganac also mounted a pair of head-mounted vulcan guns for close-range combat.
