I don't know why I said Gundam Lore in the beginning, or why I didn't spot it during editing lol. Also, anyone mentioning the scarlet team will be sniped on the spot. Bonus fact for people reading the pinned comment: The Fellowbooster was nicknamed F.F. by Federation soldiers, which supposedly stands for FlatFish in reference to its shape. (The flatfish in question is the olive flounder, aka Japanese flatfish) Personally, I’d like to believe that the Fellowbooster had an FF model number (like the Tin cod, Core Booster, etc.) and that this in combination with the shape led to FlatFish becoming the nickname(instead of F.F.)

I’m in a mobile suit that is 18 meters tall, there’s no way I can be spotted. No way.

Zeon: makes new mobile suits. Federation: slaps new parts on it, calls it a new mobile suit. Zeon paid too much.

GM Spartan? God damn, UNSC got an upgrade!

The history of jegans would sound interesting

One of the silliest things about UC Gundam is the millions of GM offshoots that were apparently developed and manufactured in the few weeks between the GM's introduction at the Battle of Jaburo and the end of the war, and the fact that not a single one of these were fielded at Solomon or A Baoa Qu. Star Wars has a similar problem with the Empire apparently having countless TIE variants that they never bothered to take to Endor, but the problem is made far worse in Gundam due to the short time-frame involved.

Love how the test team of a totalitarian organization was a happy bunny.

After seeing all these mobile suits in Gundam Battle Operation 2, I really appreciate learning the history behind them. Makes me wish for simulated battles of key parts of the One Year War through the Gryps Conflict.

“Could zeon have won the war if-“ IRRELEVANT the Freddie’s would just produce more GM Sniper II’s.

GM = Storm Trooper - Always die - Worst Aim ever - Don't get enough love

Loved playing as the White Dingo team on the Dreamcast.

The GM Sniper 2 is one of my favorite MS. The coolest part is probably the visor as Kakarot197 uses one of them as his avatar.

I love this kind of videos. Other category please... -Jegans/Jesta -Doms -Deltas -Gundam Ground Types and/or Local types -Goufs if there are other variants Thanks!!

"As always, the inevitable question *is* ...do you want to 'pilot' this?*

When your team is mostly consist of one of the best Gms of the OYW, but yet failed to do shit with them during 0080.

GM Sniper 2 Job: -Specialize sniping Mobile Suit -Take the enemy out without being spotted Reality: -Spotted in a second and taken out when dropping from the ship Note: There's so many Federation Ace pilot use GM Sniper Custom as their Suit of choose, now I need those MGs

The snipers hardly get the respect they deserve. I want to see the Dom production line next.=D

I find it really funny that the visor goes down instead of the pilot simply switching cameras

Heh ... Staying in cover waiting for the target to appear and count your heart beats befor pulling the trigger but for the GM sniper ... I have to choose between the beam and solid ammo .. Beam is easily tracked and if a zeon pilot found out where I was I would be forced to find another spot but solid ammo is hard to track

One of these videos on the Jegan would be great Maybe even pull a curve ball and go with something niche like the gun-ez

Do the RX 78 series!

Is it wrong for me to say 'pew pew' when I snipe opponents with my gm sniper?

I'm not surprised there are that many of them. Snipers are a different breed. They have to stay even cooler than normal soldiers under fire. Because finding the shot, then taking the shot is an art form.

I have to admit, I love the GM Guard Custom. That big ass shield is awesome. If I had to pilot a "standard" MS it'd probably be the Guard Custom.

GM Gaurd Custom: 69 Me: nice

Man, you are on a roll! Keep it up!

I would personally love to see a development history of the MSA-003 Nemo and the other Nemo's that spawned from it as the mobile suit is something of a favorite of mine from the Zeta era.

These videos always make me want to play battle operations 🙌🏾🙌🏾 can't express how much i love these videos

Bravo! Excellent research and execution man

I wouldnt mind seeing the history of Zeon's aquatic mobile suits

Glad to see GBO2 MS images beeing used lol, never thought i see those in a video. Great job with the development explanation.

RGM-79SP Sniper II is my favorite, great job on this video!

1:20 Oh hey, the GBO2 version! I was pretty annoyed the HGUC GM Sniper lacked that backpack. it was just the GM Ground painted green and given the rifle from the WD Sniper 2/Ground War Set.

I’m generally surprised there isn’t a Jegan sniper type. Considering how popular the Jegans were during there prime.

Great video, may I suggest a next topic being about some underappreciated federation ace and their mobile suits? (like Yuji Alkana and his GM striker)

I really these mobile suit development videos, keep on doing this great series,!

Keep up the great work

Its funny youtube loves to auto play these Development historys for me......and I rewatch them everytime hahahhaha.

Great breakdown!!!!!!

Time to add your new video to my Gundam document notes

F I N A L L Y- you have been thinking about this one for a while. About damn time, man. Also, choice music this time around. Should really post track listings. What was the track used when you spoke of the original GM Sniper?

I love it when people try and strain their brains to make sense of these kinds of giant robots. I'm an old school Battletech fan and it gets me every time! Most of any Gundam series happens in space amongst orbiting colonies. It's like the beginnings of a Dyson Sphere (no, the gargantuan sphere in Star Trek TNG doesn't count) at the time of 0079. And Tomino *knew* that giant robots wouldn't work in real life unless they were floating in zero-G. The gravity of Earth, and PHYSICS, makes BattleMechs and Mobile Suits, impossible.

Keep up the good work

GN Gundam development please.

great video,i love sniper roles and GM are looking cool ,K9 sniper is the great

First time on your channel but hey great job on the history of the GM sniper I didn't know there where so many types 🤣😂😂😂

Squidward: It sure is nice being in a state of the art mobile suit Spongebob in a kampfer: Hi Squidward

I really like the look of the Sniper II. I like them all. The GM Sniper is my fave of the GMs

BTW the GM spartan inspired the Spartan armor from Halo

Thanks Kakarot for another informative video. I love Sniper types just as mich as I love Melee based suit and High Mobility types. I wish the next main line gundam has either a kick ass Female MC, a Main Gundam with Sniper Parts option or just a Sniping one or both.

Hi-Zack Custom is my favourite mass production MS in the game Kidou Senshi Gundam : Giren no Yabou series. Perfect balance of cost, performance and production time.

Whooo love GUNDAM keep up the good work

You know military snipers in real life do more scouting and reconnaissance and less actual sniping as they are task to prevent their team from dying. This is basically what I heard from military people. The GM Sniper II should be completely black to camouflage better in space as they were used in 0080 pretty much out in the open with their bright blue colors.

I love the original GM Sniper. And the gun is badass!

The Sniper was my favourite Mobile Suit in 08th MS Team, that firepower and its totally unique narrow beam weapon.

It's always amusing for me to see iron sights and scopes on these mobile suits. If they had the tech to make a fully articulate anthropomorphic machine, they sure as hell would have invented combat computers that do all the aiming and targeting for the pilot. But hey they still use coincidence range finders in a lot of mecha anime so it's probably just aesthetics.

You know I always knew there was a reason I liked the GM sniperbut now that I learned that it was a test bed for my favorite unit in all of the universal century The pale Rider I love it even more

REALLY dig that GM Sniper 3 and its High Mobility Type. Wonder if it will ever get made

I would like to see a development history on the heavyarms One of my personal favorites

Nice video. Could we eventually see that Dagger/Windam dev history video too? 😊

Very cool video, high quality as always. But what about the GM Dominance?

you made really good contents for all gundam lover.

Ah, the GM sniper III the forgotten child... What were we talking about again?

5:19 heh, 69.

I hope youre playing Gundam Battle Operation 2 All the suits you cover are basically in the game and the gameplay is just so much fun

Hay Kakarot197, which mechs do you think are better, Gundam's Mobile Suits or Code Geass's Knightmare Frames? I've seen a lot of debate on internet forums, but I'd like to hear your opinion. And Mech only, Newtype ability is almost always HAX and Geass user ability doesn't usually factor in mech piloting (with two, maybe three exceptions).

For some reason the GM Sniper 3 medium range support type really reminds me of the Jesta and Jesta Cannon

Welp time to buy the mg gm sniper 2

5 likes seen 1 good job tubs nice video keep them coming

Very good video

gm sniper II, how i love you. those white dingo units made you feel like a badass with the gundanium armor.

NEW DEVELOPMENT HISTORY!? Today's gonna be a good day

Oh man... Would you do a video like this for the Gyan and it's successors? A really unique and controversial suit with a superb HGUC Revive kit!

Could someone tell me where I can watch the gundam series. I was always a fan playing the PS2 games and watching the expanded universe series that got here to Brazil but the main series never got here. I went out of my way to watch the 08th MS team and loved it but I could only find it because it's an "easy to find" anime. But anything from the main history I can't find beside the ones at Crunchyroll and Netflix.

R.I.P Kergerenko

GM development history would be a long one

They should create a GM Commando team with all the sniping abilities.

HG GM Guard Custom. I had a little too much trouble trying to pose it holding shield and beam gun normally, so I said "I CAN FLY!!!", put beam daggers on wrists and had it stand on the board...I mean shield.

@kakarot197 are you using Ace Combat music for the background music?

imagine an artillery GM, that would be very interesting. (shoots up so bullet go down me no dumb dumb)

5:20 best part: it has 69 written all over the shield!

Can't wait for the Zaku II video. It'll be like 40 minutes long with all the mass produced type variations and custom versions...

Good video.

Have you did one with the ability to transform into jet mode like The Zeta, Delta Plus and are there units to? And what's the back story about Delta Gundam Delta Plus and Gundam Delta Kai?

In the Gundam battle operation 2 game it said that the GM sniper 2 was very difficult to maintain and thus was never able to perform at it's max capacity.

Kakarot as always spreading knowledge👌❤ if only he is our teacher in history😂

i really wish they made a short series to show case the titans test team and hazel gundams

Are the measured weight for those robots accurate? Main battle tanks weight more than those frames.

Please do more development history videos of all the Gundam mobile suits

gm sniper 2 is in gundam evolution baby!

Finally one of my favorit ms

Can you do more one year war EFF, and more one year war in general?

Old video I know, but it's definitely the most relevant one for this question. I know many of the suits from 0080 were originally supposed to be redesigns for previously existing suits. Was the GM Sniper II such a design?

I'd love a video on the v project, granted that might be a very long video

nice video - full of informatin but it would helped if come together with boxarts which available in market..

5:22 *Nice.* Also the GM Sniper II is my favourite GM. 7:50 *I smell a Halo reference.*

Ironically if Zeon made a Zaku like this and place them in squads they could have easily won a decent number of engagements with Gundams, let alone other mobile suites.

What's with the Lydo Wolf custom GM SII using a Hyakushiki like BR?

Do you play Gundam Battle Operation 2 at all? They just added the GM Quel.

I've always love the GM Sniper line but BOY was my all time favorite the GM Sniper 2 thing kicks butt no matter what its in
