MS Explanation

A prototype developed under the FSWS Project. The goal of the FSWS Project was to establish a small but elite Gundam squad, with each unit possessing the battle strength of a battleship. However, the plan was halted by the end of the war, and revived after. Unlike the Full Armor Gundam, which was developed under the same plan with removable extra armor, this unit has integrated heavy armor from the beginning of its design, thus reducing weight and increasing durability. In addition, it was equipped with extra thrusters to provide sufficient mobility. Although the Core Block system was removed, it safeguarded the pilot nonetheless with enhanced body armor. The shoulder cannons were replaced with beam cannons, and it was additionally equipped with an advanced composite weapon system called the "Frame Launcher" on its arm that consisted of a missile launcher and a large Gatling gun. Needless to say, this unit provided extremely high firepower.
