Technology & Combat Characteristics

A large Mobile Armor used by the Neo Japan military, the Fantoma possessed a unique silhouette, with a spindle-shaped body, two legs, and no manipulators save for a pair of hidden arms inside the body. Its primary weapons were two missile launchers. It was also equipped with a pair of Mega Range Busters. Since its control system was based on the Mobile Trace System, it was able to demonstrate excellent mobility despite its large size.

History

Taking advantage of this machine's performance, it was sent on a mission to capture the Ultimate Gundam (Devil Gundam) that had escaped to Earth, but was defeated by its overwhelming power, and its pilot, Ulube Ishikawa, was deeply wounded in mind and body.

Later, during the 13th Gundam Fight, another Fantoma was used by Karato to test the combat prowess and determination of Domon Kasshu, who at the time perceived it as being the Devil Gundam with his brother Kyoji Kasshu as its pilot, due to illusionary effects. However, Domon noticed the effects and proceeded to activate the Shining Gundam's Super Mode, destroying the Fantoma.
