Throughout the Bloody Valentine War, ZAFT created several variations of the standard ZGMF-1017 GINN mobile suit. One of these variations was the ZGMF-LRR704B GINN Long Range Reconnaissance Type. Unlike the standard GINN, the Recon Type was designed for long-range reconnaissance and search missions. Because of its intended role, the Recon Type was lightly armed and only carried a sniper rifle. In early February C.E. 71, a unit belonging to the Yun Law team was sent out to search for the passenger ship Silverwind, which disappeared in the Debris Belt at the ruins of Junius Seven while preparing for a memorial service marking the first anniversary of the Bloody Valentine incident. However, the unit was destroyed in combat by Kira Yamato’s GAT-X105+AQM/E-X01 Aile Strike Gundam.
