{"title":"ZGMF-1017 GINN","description":"\u003cp\u003eZGMF-1017 GINN is ZAFT's first mass-production mobile suit, from \u003cem\u003eMobile Suit Gundam SEED\u003c\/em\u003e (2002, C.E. 71). PLANT's state-run Heinlein Design Bureau developed it as the successor to the YMF-01B Proto GINN, and it enters service in C.E. 69, two years before the war begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat it does in the story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GINN's combat debut is the first mobile suit action in the setting: ZAFT sends them out when the sponsor nations threaten the PLANT colonies, and they beat those nations' mobile armours while heavily outnumbered. Through the First Alliance-PLANT War the type carries ZAFT against the Earth Alliance's Moebius mobile armours. When the GAT-X Gundams appear with Phase Shift armour the GINN's ballistic weapons stop deciding fights, and the GuAIZ begins to replace it, though GINNs still make up most of ZAFT's suits when the war ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat makes it different\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt was built to fight mobile armours.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nZAFT's doctrine assumed the Moebius, so the standard loadout is a 76mm heavy assault machine gun and a heavy blade rather than beam weapons. A single GINN was rated the equal of three to five Moebius mobile armours.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe head crest is a sensor array.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nBesides the mono-eye that serves as the main camera, the crest carries a multi-functional sensor array with a low-light television camera at its base, giving the pilot battlefield information in real time. ZAFT reused the arrangement on many suits built in C.E. 70 and 71.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptional weapons hang off the waist and legs.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nHardpoints on the left, right and back of the waist and on the sides of the legs mean extra kit mounts without a backpack. The D-type equipment, where D stands for destruction, covers the Pardus missile pods, the Canus launchers, the Cattus 500mm recoilless rifle and the cartridge-fed Barrus Kai ion cannon.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIts machine gun was a first for mobile suits.\u003c\/strong\u003e\nThe MMI-M8A3 76mm was the first automatic firearm developed for a mobile suit, with semi-automatic and full-automatic modes and armour-piercing ammunition as standard. The heavy blade is a physical sword made with the same molecular processing as a Laurasia-class ship's outer armour.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow big is it?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall height: 21.43 m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/144: roughly 14.9 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/100: roughly 21.4 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy buy from P-Rex Hobby\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eP-Rex Hobby is a \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/vendors\"\u003eBandai Recommended Hobby Store\u003c\/a\u003e with 20,000+ customers served and \u003cspan data-prex-live=\"five-star-reviews\"\u003e1,800+\u003c\/span\u003e five-star reviews.
