Here's a video idea. Do a video where you pretend your job is procurement of MS for your country and in a manner of how people would compare which fighter or tanks is perfect for their nation's armed forces. You list out a set of options of MS units you think would be your nation's standard issue MS, listing out pros and cons of each MS for your country before you pick one MS to win the "procurement competition"
Kinda missed the opportunity to mention that 1 Zaku Sniper survived all the way to fighting for the Sleeves, making it probably the longest lived Zaku I in the franchise.
A full video on the Minovsky Particle would be really nice. It feels a little... "varied" in it's rules between series, so it would be nice to have a clear, concise explanation (and times these rules were broken or forgotten)
This is why I love the Zaku series. Very easy to adapt Edit: so much for Zeon being able to fight another ten years with the resources you shipped from Odessa, eh, M'Quve?
I mean, given how many times Zeon kept coming back despite all the losses they took time and time again... The main Zeon force may not have had the time to process everything, but Zeon did seem to have the ability to kickback its forces time and time again, about on par with the Earth Federation.
@@miceltusav88 I don't disagree. There are loads of issues Zeon pulled that constantly saw them failing at every long term objective. But they were still a problem all the way up to Hathaways Flash. So he wasn't wrong on *that* aspect. But yes, OYW Zeon wouldn't be able to keep up the war. More importantly, Zakus are very modular. Which makes it awesome.
Next thing you tell me there's a Zaku II Chef type which functions as a walking mess hall that cooks food for the troops. Think the Ganymede/Pizza Hut collab from Code Geass.
in the SEED version of the Zaku they have a Zaku hospital, which is literally what it says. a Zaku with 3 stories hospital building as a backpack. so i guess a Zaku Kitchen Type would be also possible.
I can never get enough Gundam development lore, really helps flush out the world more. I really wonder if Zeon ever attempted their version of a Gundam, the Gelgoog maybe?
The Gelgoog is somewhat on par with the Gundam performance wise though as for mobile suits more akin to the Gundam in other ways it varies depending on where you pull from. One to consider is the RX-78-Z1 Zeon's Gundam from Gihren's Greed though as merely a captured unit perhaps a more fitting one would be from another alternate UC that being the LRX-077 Sisquiede as while it was built by the Titans it was originally from Zeon, they just never got around to it because of the One Year War ending. At least at the moment those are about the only examples I can think of seeing as in another light all their various Mobile Armors could also be consider in a similar vein or that because of projects like that they never had the means of their own proper Operation V. I suppose in another light the Zeong could also be considered making its fight with the RX-78-2 fitting.

Great content as per usual! Interesting to hear the origins of the Flipper, it's a suit that I have grown to hate going up against in GBO2 as it's a tricky dicky bastard in the hands of an even half competent pilot. Looking forward to seeing the next installment of UC Gundam lore, I really, really love gaining a better understanding of my favourite setting in one of my favourite franchises. Hope you are doing great and I wish you all the best!
Okay, I like the Dish. It's cute, and it makes sense to a degree. Basically a giant sensor array and some engines. arguably even a lifting body-ish shape Though with the reduced range, maybe something like the Blackbird would work better, leveraging the speed to get up close for a looksie while staying alive. The "flipper" reminds me of the villain, D.A.V.E. from "The Batman" animated series.
0:01 "If fighting is sure to result in victory then you must fight! Sun Tzu said that. And I'd say that he knows a little more about fighting than you do pal because he invented it. And then he perfected it so that no living man could best him in the ring of honour.
11:08, I usually hate snipers but that’s one of my favorite mobile suits of all time. It’s believable, it’s not some magic armored thing that needs teenager energy to run.
jacob also got his goog JN to be succeeded by the vertex xanthos id love to see a dev history on the chimera corp units like his umas etc etc or the gabaldy that used parts from the gp04 those sorta hybrid units are insanely cool
He would have thought that it was a wasteful tactic that sacrificed what he called "The mandate of heaven", which means that it makes you look like the aggressor, demoralizes your own people, and stiffens the enemies' resolve to fight, which is exactly what happened. A lot of other colonies would abandon Zeon after Operation Stardust and the Federation would form the Titans as a direct result of the colony drop.
Tbh the colony drop on Australia was unintentional as the actual target was Jaburo but something went wrong and something caused the colony to divert off course a little bit which made it drop on Sydney instead of Jaburo.
@@1wayroad935 Im not gonna doubt Zeon's ill intentions on the colonists that lived in the colony. But as you know on the inside in the political scene, Zeon was experiencing a cold civil war between the Zabi Family and those loyal to Zeon Zum Deikun. This is explained further in MSG The Origin anime. I would assume that the Colony Drop was orchestrated by someone in the Zabi Family.
Kind of surprised you didn’t use more GBO2 footage, a few of the other suits you mentioned actually appear in that game. GBO2 usually does a very good job of making most suits in it look handsome, it’s actually gotten me to like and respect other suits that I initially thought looked too goofy.
Kakarot, if you have already done a series of 'what if' videos about the Alex, why not a series of 'what if' videos about a world without psychoframe? Something like 'more realistic CCA'.
Wait. You said the Minoskvi particle even reduces visibility? In what way? When do they show this? I thought it only messed with Radar and radio waves. Anyway great video! I'm really looking forward to the Gelgoog development history video when you get to it! Do you think you'll give the GM family as much love as the Zaku family at some point? I'd bet there might be even MORE GM variations. XD
If you check the videos on radiation material, you can see that it crackles. Not sure why, but interference from Minovsky Particle is based on real life.

I never understood the concept of the "camera gun." If the MS has such a sophisticated mono-eye, then why not just integrate the functionality of the camera gun into the mono-eye? Only 2 reasons I can think of for the camera gun being a seperate "gun," are: A) You can hide the MS behind a building or something, and stick the camera gun around the corner to spy on the enemy. But, in this case, why not just integrate the camera to the arms? It would do the same thing, but also allow the hands/manipulators to carry weapons in case of confrontation. B) In case of an emergency, you can dispose of the camera gun for future retrieval (throw it off a cliff or into a crater) . Or, you can pass it off to an ally to take recorded info back to base. But, again, there's a counter-option. Why not integrate the camera into the mono-eye or arms, and make the recording medium ejectable like an ammo magazine (think of a VHS tape or CD-Rom)? Just eject it and throw it somewhere for future retrieval, or pass it to an ally. (Just watched more of the video) I guess Zeon eventually ditched the camera gun with the Flipper?
Kind of a miss opportunity, not having a matte black units, perhaps something like black 2.0 coloured units especially for recon units. While sensors would detect them, its going to be a b17ch for visual detection.
Ive used the Zaku I Sniper Type a number of times in GBO2. I primarily use the long barrel Zaku machine gun though which has served me well. Most dont expect Zaku I Sniper Type to use that gun due to it being dubbed the worst gun in GBO2. But I beg to differ. The worst gun to me is the anti-air zaku machine gun that the Zaku Flipper and the High Mobility Type Zaku II uses in GBO2.
@@projectsinclair The firing rate is what i disliked about it. They call it a machine gun but the fire rate says otherwise. The Long Barrel Zaku machine gun fires in bursts like a triple shot carbine seen in WWII and has to be used accordinly like so. Its meant for potshots/quick reaction shots aka Snap Shots that relies on precision and accuracy to be effective. Ive done some serious damage to players using that gun.
I love playing those recon Zakus in GBO2, except most of the time, the other players in my team are showing me their disapproval of the suit choice by simply back meleeing me in the back when they see me.
Zaku Flippers seem weird at first but I can tell you from GBO2 experience it can kick your ass. Because I've had my ass kicked lol. Its an electronic warfare suit that disrupts radar as well.

Yes! the Scope Do- I mean the Zaku Flipper!
6:33 Ah yes, the Zaku Flipper, my eternal partner in Gundam Online, back when that was a thing.
Of all the sniper units listed, Node's has to be my favorite.

ok that dish ad transition was smooth, i tip my hat to you sir
What is it about Zaku's that's so intriguing? Of all the models out there in the U.C timeline it's the Zaku that stands out the most for me.
Just came and saw Zaku II and got something to watch coming out of work
11:08, I usually hate snipers but that’s one of my favorite mobile suits of all time. It’s believable, it’s not some magic armored thing that needs teenager energy to run.
Yes more Zaku! More of the superior mobile suit!
I'd love it if you made a dedicated video on pilots who used Zaku 1s both during and after the war
Yes, more zaku!
Love the Recon Zaku with the Long machine gun in GBO2 the Chaff grenades were awesome and the flipper is deadly as hell with the anti air machine gun.
There was one zaku flipper used as a sniper unit in the aggressors manga which the main character chase was battling it in a space pod
1:16 turtle lookin jet
jacob also got his goog JN to be succeeded by the vertex xanthos
id love to see a dev history on the chimera corp units like his umas etc etc or the gabaldy that used parts from the gp04

Videos like this reminds me that Bandai could get so much more of my money if they made kits of these units.
THANKS FOR THIS! I was just using it un GBO2 over the weekend
I wonder what Sun Tzu would have thought of dropping a gassed colony on Australia?

Hey I haven’t watched the whole video yet but does the Zaku Flipper not remind anyone else of the mechs in Armored Trooper VOTOMS?
they already knew it since quite a long time ago. just search for the promotional image for Zaku Flipper in Gundam Battle Operation 2.
The mechs in votom are called votoms

Still hoping for a HGUC Gelgoog Jacobius Node custom release just for the triple camera sensor
The Dish looks like a cute turtle. ^_^
This is all well and good but I need my fix of GM Lore soon.....
In Mobile suit Gundam Thunderbolt, Daryl Lorenz used Zaku 2 and 1 for using a sniping beam weapons to fire down some GM'S

Targeted and Firing!
Great 😃👍 to have video about Monoskey particles topic

More warships development history

I don’t know what is it about the Hawkeye. But it’s monoeye disturbs me
zaku my beloved
I love your videos. Maybe we could even more Zeon like Gelgoog, Gouf, Z,gok or Hygogg
Hey kakarot still hoping on a top ten best ship mounted Weapons standard or optional hopping for you to make that video 👍😉
we called it Votom Zaku 😂

I've always wanted a gunpla for the zaku 2 recon sniper type HG so I'm going too slam a bunch of zakus together too get a sniper type wish me luck
