An experimental mobile suit developed early in the Zanscare War, the ZMT-S13G Godzorla was rather unusual for a BESPA design, as its head sensors were built in a multi-segmented lens arrangement. The Godzorla’s armaments were considered a little better than a standard ZM-S08G Zolo‘s, although it lacked the generator power to use its beam weapons effectively, and was thus forced to rely more heavily on close-range combat weapons. And though it was better than the ZMT-S12S Shokew in terms of mobility and sensor capabilities, the Godzorla’s design never made it past the test stage.
