Profile


The Hizack is the first mass production mobile suit brought into the world by Anaheim Electronics. Its external appearance resembles that of the famous Zaku II used by the old Zeon forces, and this design could only have been created by Anaheim, which has absorbed the Zeonic Company, which was once Zeon’s major mobile suit maker. Zeonic’s development knowhow is incorporated in the machine’s inner construction as well as its outward appearance, giving it the same high operating reliability and ease of production as the Zaku II. Naturally, it can use beam weapons, and it’s the first mass production machine to include a linear seat and panoramic monitor as standard equipment.

The Federation Forces have made a tentative decision to formally adopt this machine, and a test evaluation unit has been assigned to the Titans Test Team to investigate whether it should be adopted by the Titans as well. Its resemblance to the Zaku makes the Hizack unpopular with the Titans, but their need to ensure a sufficient number of mobile suits for their growing organization will ultimately leave them with no alternative.

Technical Notes

The Hizack Pre-Production Type typically carries an energy pack holder on its left arm. Its backpack and leg thruster units lack the deflecting plates seen in the final production version, and one caption also indicates that this early version of the Hizack is armored with Luna Titanium alloy.
