Technology & Combat Characteristics
The AMX-101 Galluss-J was designed by Neo Zeon to serve as an urban combat mobile suit. In that capacity, it would serve as a "mopping up" unit after an area had been bombarded, likely from an AMX-102 Zssa. Apart from several missile launchers, the Galluss-J does not possess any powerful long-range weapons, instead specializing in close combat battle. For this purpose, the scientists of Axis seemed to have drawn inspiration from the MS-07 Gouf mobile suit series that appeared during the One Year War, and was noted for its excellent urban combat abilities. Like the Gouf, the Galluss-J was equipped with a set of light machine guns in the fingers of its left hand, weapons that were useless at long range but effective in close range. Additionally, the arms of the Galluss-J can retract and then extend to add power to its punching attacks in hand-to-hand combat.
Armaments
- 2-tube Missile Pod
- The Galluss-J has a 2-tube missile pod built into both sides of the chest. When not in use, the missiles can be covered by hatches.
- Finger Launcher
- Mounted in the mobile suit's fingers are a series of small caliber machine guns. Also known as finger missiles, these weapons are intended for use in close-range combat or for attacking small targets, including personnel and missiles.
- Energy Gun
- Hand carried in use, this weapon serves as the Galluss-J's primary means of ranged combat. It has a 4-tube missile pod on its left side and has a power rating of 3.8 MW.
- Beam Saber
- The beam saber is a small device held in the mobile suit's hands when deployed and is powered by a rechargeable energy capacitor. It emits high-energy Minovsky particles to form a blade-shaped I-field (via manipulation of electromagnetic fields), and then fills this I-field shell with superheated Minovsky particle plasma to produce an effective cutting blade. The Galluss-J carries a single beam saber for melee combat.
- BR-87A Beam Rifle
- The same beam rifle used by the Hizack and Marasai, it is powered by a replaceable e-pac and is power rated at 2.2 MW.
History
One of the earliest Galluss-J units to be built was employed by Neo Zeon officer Mashymre Cello, who would use this mobile suit in an attempt to ferret out the refugee AEUG battleship Argama from its hiding place inside Side 1's Shangri-La colony. This prototype model was defeated by Judau Ashta in the MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam. The Galluss-J later saw a limited production run throughout the Neo Zeon War, and was commonly used in defending Axis. During the latter days of the war, a number of these mobile suits were a part of Glemy Toto's separatist forces and painted in a gray color scheme.
In U.C. 0096, a Galluss-J was used by Zeon Remnants during the attacks on Dakar and Torrington Base.[1]
