Technology & Combat Characteristics
The RGM-79/GH Gundam Head is a variant of the standard mass production RGM-79 GM of the Federation Forces. The primary difference is in the form of its namesake: a Gundam-type head, which is meant to that the famous Gundam had on the Zeon forces. The Gundam Head’s joints have been sealed for protection from space debris. The new head unit has additional sensors compared to a regular GM, and its large backpack features two sub-arms that can hold two shields.
History
Multiple Gundam Heads were deployed during Federation's final assault at Zeon's space fortress A Baoa Qu. Launched from a Columbus-class carrier, they engaged and defeated the defending mobile suits, and proceeded to take out the Royal Guard Zakus in the transportation tunnels in a shield-wall tactic, clearing a path for the RX-75 Guntank (Thunderbolt Ver.) to deploy troops to capture the palace and the Flanagan Institute.
