It was developed before the RX-78-2's combat data came back, and it stands ahead of the standard RGM-79 GM in the Federation's production programme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat it does in the story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe type was pushed into Southeast Asia to slow Zeon's expansion, and priority examples went to special forces so their engagements could produce data on fighting mobile suits. By the close of the war it was at Operation Odessa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat makes it different\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt outperforms the GM that came after it.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nEvery internal part is tuned for ground combat and the armour is Luna Titanium, which puts its mobility and general performance above the later RGM-79 GM.
