Hot on the heels of
the Gogg came the Zeonic Company's own amphibious mobile suit
design, a lower-cost model that reused many internal components
from the Zaku II. Even with two Zaku powerplants, the heat signatures
produced by the Acguy were relatively low compared to most other
amphibious mobile suits from the One Year War. On the other hand,
the reduced heat emissions made the Acguy harder to detect with
infra-red sensors, and thus better suited for infiltration and
reconnaissance missions.
The precise armament
of the Acguy was somewhat variable. Its armament proved something
of a surprise to the Federation: in addition to head-mounted vulcan
guns and rocket launchers in the left arm, what appeared to be
more rocket launchers in the right arm were actually extendable
claws. Topped off by a mega particle cannon, the right arm could
also extend out, making it a useful punching or striking weapon.
