MS-14F Gelgoog Marine

The MS-14F Gelgoog Marine is a specialized version of the MS-14 Gelgoog, designed specifically for Zeon’s marine forces during the One Year War. This variant was tailored for combat in space, featuring enhancements that improved its maneuverability and operational range. Its design included upgraded thrusters and external propellant tanks that allowed the Gelgoog Marine to operate effectively in zero-gravity environments. The external tanks could be jettisoned when empty to reduce weight, thus improving agility during engagements.

Armed with a pair of 110mm machine cannons mounted on its forearms, the Gelgoog Marine had reliable projectile firepower, complemented by a 90mm machine gun for ranged attacks. For close combat, it was equipped with a knuckle shield, which was a modified Zaku II shoulder shield with added spikes, as well as two beam sabers stored in its waist armor. These weapons made the Gelgoog Marine versatile in various combat situations, from ranged firefights to melee combat.

The Gelgoog Marine saw action in the final stages of the One Year War, with units assigned to the Cima Fleet, where they participated in critical operations such as attacks on Federation naval forces and the colony drop on Earth. Despite its late introduction, the Gelgoog Marine proved to be a valuable addition to Zeon’s fleet, highlighting the innovation and adaptability of their mobile suit designs.
