Technology & Combat Characteristics
Developed during the middle stages of the Calamity War, the IPP-66305 Hugo is a high mobility mobile suit primarily for operating in space. It is unsuitable for walking under gravity due to the feet having extremely little contact surface with the ground.
To retain mobility, the Hugo have less armor than most mobile suit, leading to most of them being shot down during the Calamity War.
History
Three IPP-66305 Hugo units were deployed by Dawn Horizon Corps during the space battle between against Tekkadan: one by its leader, Sandoval Reuters, and the other two by the group's executives, the twins. The twins launched in their Hugos first and held off Tekkadan and the small Gjallarhorn force lead by Isurugi Camice prior to the arrival of the Arianrhod Fleet. When the tide of the battle turned against the Dawn Horizon Corps, Sandoval launched in his Hugo. The twins and their Hugos were later defeated by Isurugi and Julieta Juris separately, while Sandoval was defeated and captured by Mikazuki Augus. The fate of the three Hugos afterwards is unknown. Several Hugos painted in purple and brown were used by JPT Trust in their battle against Tekkadan, but all of them were defeated.
