EGM-1085 Gennai Mass Production Type

The EGM-1085 Gennai Mass Production Type (aka Gennai Mass Production Type, Gennai) is the mass production version of the Gennai Standard Type.

Technology & Combat Characteristics
Built as the first mass produced Storm Drive powered mobile suit, the Gennai offers a versatile arsenal for a variety of missions. Due to extensive research into frame technology the suit is quite easy to pilot compared to earlier Storm Drive type machines while retaining superior performance over UPEM Fuel Cell powered machines. The Gennai's frame is far more flexible than previous machines, allowing it to be retasked to other roles with minimal effort as the suit's subsystems can quickly adjust to make full use of the current weapon being used.

The Mass Production type features a new backpack design to increase mobility in both space and on the ground, incorporating a number of thrusters, stabilisers, fuel tanks and sensors. Extra weapons can be attached to either side of the backpack to free up the hands.

Armaments
