　　■Mobile Suit Features
　　・Raid unit with cost of 600.
　　・This ground-type variant of the Gundam Delta Kai was equipped with specialized gear to test the effectiveness
　　　of Transformable Mobile Suits (TMS) in ground combat.
　　・The Gundam Delta Kai was a test unit for the purpose of technological verification of special equipment,
　　　and was also designed to test the feasibility of land battle operations.
　　　This model has been modified for land combat, including the addition of dust filters, moisture-proofing,
　　　reinforcement of shock absorbers, and retrofitting of leg-mounted hover units.
　　　In terms of armament, the Prototype Fin Funnel, high mega cannon, long mega buster, etc. have been removed,
　　　and replaced with a beam rifle with railgun, blast bolt, etc. similar to the Hyaku-Shiki Kai Ground Type.
　　・During a combat exercise,
　　　it was subjected to a live-ammo assault by the Federation Army’s aggressor squadron known as Raven,
　　　and was deployed to defend the base from further assault.
　　　Crisis was averted through the activation of a Psycommu device known as NITRO,
　　　but this was still considered a dangerous MS that could potentially run rampant.
　　・Can only be deployed on the Ground.
