Technology & Combat Characteristics
The experimental Zakrello was one of the earliest mobile armors developed by the Principality of Zeon. It had two huge thruster nacelles which gave it tremendous speed and acceleration, making it extremely fast. In terms of close-combat weapons, it mounted two giant heated blades for cutting attacks. For heavy firepower, it was equipped with a scattering mega particle cannon, which was mounted in the 'mouth' of the mobile armor. Finally, it had a pair of 4-tube missile launchers on its sides. However, despite being very fast, the MA lacked agility, making it unable to dodge attacks effectively.
History
The MA-04X Zakrello makes a very brief appearance following the destruction of MA-05 Bigro. The Zakrello, piloted by Dimitri, engages the White Base's mobile suits in order to avenge Tokwan, the Bigro's fallen pilot, but is quickly dispatched by Amuro Ray in the RX-78-2 Gundam.
