Technology & Combat Characteristics[]
After the TMF/A-802 BuCUE TMF was infected by the Hydra Virus, it has undergone structural changes and looks more freakishly, slim and intimidating form, as it retains the primary color and undergoing a monstrous change into a beast.
The like the TMF/A-802 BuCUE, this mobile suit designed for ground-based combat. Unlike other mobile suits used by the Forsaken, the Hellhound is a quadruped, looking more like a dog than a human. The four-legged design distributes the weight of the Hellhound during combat, giving it greater balance and the ability to move on irregular or difficult terrains on earth much more easily and nimbly than standard two-legged MS using all four legs. Additionally each leg is equipped with a caterpillar-treads which are retractable that can be combo'd with the pair of sharp claws.
