Technology & Combat Characteristics
A Gundam-type MS with an OS capable of unmanned operation, following in the footsteps of the Zephyr Gundam; due to the history of past runaway accidents involving the Phantom System, a pilot was required for fire control, and Ruby served as the pilot. The Zephyr Gundam was also equipped with important classified data, which led to it being targeted by the anti-Earth Federation organization FAMAS. Its basic performance is state-of-the-art at the time, but it is armed only with a beam gun and a beam saber (with a longer reach than conventional MS). In the latter half of the story, it is additionally equipped with a Hi-Mega cannon on its head, a beam gun integrated with a beam saber, and an anti-funnel system.
