{"title":"RGM-79Q GM Quel","description":"\u003cp\u003eRGM-79Q GM Quel is the first mass-production mobile suit built for the Titans, the Earth Federation's elite counter-insurgency unit, and it appears in \u003cem\u003eMobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory\u003c\/em\u003e (1991, U.C. 0083). It was manufactured at Luna II on the frame of the Augusta base's high-performance RGM-79N GM Custom, and the first units were ready in December U.C. 0083.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat it does in the story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJamitov Hymen ordered the machine while the Titans were still only a proposal, so the first GM Quels were finished and issued the moment the organisation was established. The type carried the unit through its early years of colony peacekeeping, riot control and suppression work until the Gryps Conflict in U.C. 0087, when newer machines replaced it, and its blue paint scheme became the standard Titans livery across other suits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat makes it different\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt is a simplified GM Custom, not simply a cheaper one.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nThe Titans stripped complexity out of the GM Custom to make the machine lighter and easier to mass produce while keeping performance largely intact.
