zssa

A fictional mecha from the Gundam franchise. It first appeared in the Gundam ZZ TV series from 1986.

AMX-102 Zssa

Small artillery type MS created by Neo Zeon. As it was supposed to work in tandem with the close-quarters type Galluss-J, it was loaded to the utter brim with missiles, guns and all sorts of extra ranged armament, serving as support.

However, the Zssa was severely lacking in the melee combat area, so it required obligatory escort from raid capable mecha for each of its missions.
