AMX-101S GALLUSS-S
A variation of the AMX-101 Gallus-J mobile suit developed for the invasion of Earth by the Neo Zeon led by Haman Karn. Assuming there would be a ground battle on Mars, development and construction were carried out at the Mars plant with a type that specialized in the close combat performance of the Gallus-J.
As can be seen from the end of the model number, it was a custom unit for the commander and was operated as a commander unit on the front lines or it could also act as an escort unit.
The red and white two-tone coloring is derived from Kycilia’s former Special Service. The color is said to be a symbol for Zeon Mars which is predominantly pro-Kycilia. On the planet during the Zeon Mars era of rule, they were mainly used by the elite guards where Chester acted as commander.
The suit is equipped with a heat lance and circular shield. This shield is said to be a guards version.
A suit used exclusively by Chester who had become supreme commander of the Zeon Mars that shifted to guerillas having been defeated by the ReZeon. In order to conduct guerrilla warfare under Martian environment, it along with other mobile suits of the Chester Fleet were repainted in a desert coloring.
In the attack on the plant, which is part of the Operation Radiant Star, he works with escorts of the Adzam-class, a mobile armor that is vital to command and strategy on the front line. In doing so, it is equipped with a large beam cannon for mid-range support, and following the Adzam-class generation of an “Omega Storm” to inhibit the enemy’s visibility and search capabilities, it snipes from a distance. In order to use the large beam cannon, the backpack was changed to an exclusive type.
Furthermore, the shapes of the upgraded portions such as the torso and legs of the S-type are similar to those of the AMX-004 Qubeley, intidcating there is a commonality in the base frame of the two.
