Technology & Combat Characteristics
Developed at the same time as the Extreme Gundam, the Extreme Gundam Type Leos is the second unit created for space travel and data gathering. It's designed to manifest itself in the virtual worlds of General Answer and allow Leos and Sthesia to dive into the different worlds. The head unit is unique as it contains four different head formations for each of its armor packs though it never uses them. The unit's standard armaments includes two beam sabers and two beam daggers for close combat and a Beam Gun for taking down enemies from afar.
The Extreme Gundam Type Leos is similar to its brother unit – it's designed to equip several armor packs to suit multiple combat situations. However, unlike the original unit, Leos' version is based around evolution, improving itself with armor packs that grow stronger over time, eventually producing the same glowing frames, though with a unified gold light.
History
The Extreme Gundam Type Leos was built by an unknown origin after the completion of the Extreme Gundam, having also been designed for space travel but incorporated a standard pilot cockpit versus the first unit's unmanned cockpit schema. However, because of the apparent shortage of human candidates, the unit was put into storage. It was later painted red and piloted by Leos Alloy in pursuit of AI pilot, EX-, who pilots the Extreme Gundam.
The Extreme Gundam Type Leos first debuts in Universal Century mission. When the battle between Marion Welch's RX-79BD-3 Blue Destiny Unit 3 Kai and Zero Murasame's RX-178-X0 Prototype Gundam Mark II broke out, Leos try to intervene but his RX-78GP04G Gundam "Gerbera" got shot down. On Jupiter X, Sthesia Awar checks the record of the event and found that all combatants involved with this battle will be killed (which now would include Leos as well). To prevent this, Sthesia ask Pigna Hershey to dive into the Universal Century and deliver the Extreme Gundam to Leos.
