The Hy-Gogg is a new version of the amphibious mobile suit Gogg. Rather than
merely improving the original design, Zeon's mobile suit developers redesigned it
from scratch, retaining only the basic concepts. The result is a compact, powerful
machine, smaller and more agile than its ancestor. The beam cannons in its
multi-segmented arms use the same energy capacitor technology as the
Gundam's beam rifle, giving the Hy-Gogg greater firepower and a much wider
firing arc. During their assault on a Federation base in the arctic circle, the
Cyclops Team outfit their Hy-Goggs with one-shot missile launchers that fit over
the mobile suits' forearms.
