Technology & Combat Characteristics
The RGM-89DEW EWAC Jegan is an equipment variant of the RGM-89D Jegan D Type, and serves as a reconnaissance unit. It has enhanced sensing capabilities thanks to a large sensor unit attached to the head, a second sensor unit on its left forearm, and a large camera unit on its right forearm. The sensor unit on the left forearm has a laser communication device, allowing it to relay gathered information back to the mothership. Since it was never intended to engage in direct combat, the suit's weaponry is kept to a minimum and consisted of a beam saber, a beam rifle and three hand grenades. Its heat emission is extremely low, making it difficult to detect via thermal detection.
History
Prior to the attack on Palau, two EWAC Jegans were deployed to gather intelligence on the asteroid base, designated 001 Blue and 002 White. During the mission, White was discovered by an AMX-014 Döven Wolf and killed, with the remains of his EWAC Jegan recovered by a RMS-119 EWAC Zack. However, Blue was able to shake off his pursuers, disabling an MS-21C Dra-C and avoiding the Döven Wolf's beam cannon by diving into a debris field. Despite sustaining heavy damage to his machine, he was able to complete his mission and bring back the intelligence on Palau.
During the battle of Industrial 7, two EWAC Jegans, designated William 001 and William 002, were deployed by the SCVA-76 Nahel Argama to collect data on the location of the "Sleeves" fleet.
