They only had 4 of these and lost three of them in this mission. It was initially a failed prototype before they figured out how to give it some power under the hood which you see the results of here. The other guntanks were considered too situational for widespread production.
To be fair, these were being driven by pilots who had experience and bat shit crazy on their side and pushed the machine to its limits The gundam was dealing death with a complete amateur a kid no less at the helm and still had strength to spare, and only got more deadly as he improved. But I'll take Experience and Batshit crazy over literal plot armor any day
These things seem insanely powerful. Crazy maneuverability when grounded, Main Cannon that can one shot on a direct impact, two arm guns with enough focused firepower to down a Dom, a napalm sprayer, mines, explosives, two different rocket launcher variants... honestly, if 90% of the OYWs most important fights didn't happen in space, this could have been a ridiculously strong force for the Federation. You know, setting aside the fact it got its specs stolen. Which just raises the question of why Zeon didn't try using it, honestly.
If we're being realistic these things would be way more effective as a platform than mobile suits, but unfortunately they don't look as cool. They also would have to rely on air support a lot
@@cabnbeeschurgr That wouldn't be a problem, especially at the Battle of Odessa. More recent depictions keep adding mobile suits to the federation side, but the battle was still primarily fought and won by conventional tanks, artillery and good ol' total, unchallenged air supremacy. Turns out that even if you have 1300 mobile suits against less than 40, you can't do much if they enemy has fixed you into being unable to use any kind of mobile, offensive doctrine.
A prototype was made for the previous game, Hildruf, but it would be unrealistic to transport it from Side 3 on the other side of the moon or the lunar city of Granada. For the same cost it would be better to transport Zaku or other land combat weapons, arms, ammunition, and replacement personnel.
Let's just say the specs were not stolen but intentionally leaked so they could implant spies when the EFF deemed the unit uneconomical for mass production.
Maybe if Zeon had gotten the plans around the battle of Loum, we would've, but Zeon's opportunity to operate terrestrial suits was limited. They probably didn't have enough time to develop and manufacture anything in time for any meaningful ground battles
As I get older, my appreciation for all the other mobile suits increase, and I absolutely *LOVE* these chunky boys. Also, some really good design elements, like the tracks on the front for faster speeds and keeping them low to the ground so that they don’t flip over, the disengaged weapons ports once they’ve been emptied, and the combination of heavy artillery combined with anti-personnel weaponry. Good stuff.

Flamethrowers against military targets is not a war crime. Flamethrowers against civilian targets is. "Flamethrowers are a war crime" is a common myth started by the fact that militaries stopped using them much post-WW2 when it was realized that their range was a problem and carrying a large fuel tank made them a target. Today, a lot of militaries have replaced them with Incendiary rockets like the Russian RPO and for a while the US had the M202 FLASH, which are safer for the person carrying, safer for the people around them, disposable, and most of all, have much longer ranges.
@@Fulcrox buddy you should read some articles like first of all i study history and the military second of all my dad is actually a historian plus a person who knows the military and the conventions (war crimes) and he told me yes it is a war crime to kill someone with a flame thrower third of all read some articles like "At a quick glance, the rules as outlined by the Geneva Conventions on which weapons are allowed (and disallowed) to be used in combat make little sense. The objective of combat is, ultimately, to put an enemy down so the conflict will end - and yet such killing must be done via the most humane means available." or "So how, exactly, do the Geneva Conventions delineate what is and isn’t allowed when killing the enemy? It all boils down to two simple words: military necessity." or again "Weapons like a nuclear ICBM are strongly condemned by the international community - but a depleted uranium tank buster round is fine. A Browning .50 caliber Machine Gun is entirely legal, but simply shaving a side of a bullet is a war crime. Incendiary grenades are banned, but (and it’s very explicitly stated) a flamethrower was permitted and often used during the Vietnam War." and it can only be allow to remove cover and plants that are getting in the way.

Also, I can hear artifacts in the high frequencies that sound like the mix was at 128kbps at one point... or maybe some sound effects came from low resolution sources?
@@solaireofastora5999 like 90% of the terrain in Europe? let's say it in a reverse way...Zeon MS wouldn't do much if the area is not urban or forest like close combat.
@@itsuk1_1well, yeah that's true. Upon invading Earth, Zeon ground forces were slowed down by logistics issues and the fact that the Zaku II C and F types move too slow due to their heavy weight, leading to the creation of the Type J where it is extremely light with weaker boost capacity and lesser thrusters in exchange for a lighter frame that allows it to move around. Unlike Guntanks, MS like the Zaku can serve a multi use, a jack of all trades, which was what the Zaku was designed for. Because it's not stuck with a gun, you give it a machine gun and it's a fast recon unit or a vanguard unit. Give it a 280mm bazooka and it's a bunker buster to deal with heavy armoured foes like Big Trays or fortified. Give it a 175mm Magella Cannon and it's an Anti Air and Long range unit. My point is that specialized units like the the RTX-440 Assault Guntank can't do anything if the environment doesn't suit them. Just like Zeon MS where bringing a Z-GokE into a Desert isn't going to do anything. It's why Zeon had to create units like Gouf where it can specialize in Urban and forest without the limitations of the Zaku II J. The same applies to the assault Guntank, if the area isn't an open field and has multiple terrain, the Assault Guntank can work but it will only serve as an Artillery Platform which defeats the purpose of the unit being a hit and run unit when said role is done by the RX-75 MP Guntank
Because these things are only really good at combat on (relatively) level open ground with clear lines of sight. They'd be absolutely garbage in urban combat or forested areas, and Mobile Suits can still handle those types of terrain. I love the Guntank, but it's very much a specialized tool.
@@TheIntratec9 They'd still be useful in urban warfare and lightly forested areas. The RTX-440 is utterly useless in those types of terrain for anything other than deforestation and demolition respectively.
Military Intelligence. If the Federation developed the Guntanks further, Zeon would've caught wind of this and just do the same if not better. The war would've dragged on much longer too and resources will definitely be scarce. Mobile Suits are the game changer, no matter how they're presented in most media. Plus these RTX-440s are supposed to be mass produced instead of the RX-75 until a fiasco regarding its intel occured, all this to cover up the existence of Project V until the Gundam first launched.
@@TheBigExclusiveIronicly, the OYW plays it straight. The main reason the Zeon earth offensives stalled was the Federation maintaining air supremacy. Feddie aircraft were leaps and bounds above the Dopp and Magellan Top. The Gaw carrier admittedly had them beat for a long range mobile carrier, but the Pegasus class would easily out perform it.
Not really, EFAF had upper hand through the whole War. Before these monsters were deployed, we got to see Fed fighters tore through Zeke air units like they are made of paper. Zeon air force was so beaten that we saw Federation transports regularly penetrate deep into Zeon occupied territories to supply units trapped there like White Base
just getting into gundam and was wonder what series / season these were from? Edit: Found the series in question Mobile Suit Gundam MS IGLOO 2: The Gravity Front.
Why give them arms when you aren't going to give them hands? Wouldn't side turrets be more efficient than arms? Aside from the cool appearance, a traditional tank design would probably be more efficient and allows for more armor stacking than an upper torso on treads.
Guntanks don't get enough credit. Imo they are more practical and realistic than mobile suits. We could very well build something like this today if we wanted to.
That would be great if the Big Tray-class and Dabde-class land combat ships that appear in the story were put to practical use. They are things that cannot even be transported by existing ships or railways.
Why those cool guntanks are not mass produced? Just imagine how they gonna fight aquatic ms or flying ms? Use cannon? They're fast but not too fast for those ms , the real reason why its look so op beacause it had 2 pilot at once and piloted by a special pilot They're not difference from brown southern cross , its a special custom with advanced pilot, its up to pilot mostly but gotta agree that guntanks a great
The Land Combat Assault Guntank is a descendant of the lost Guntank, an unfortunate machine that was never officially adopted due to a confidentiality leak. It actually appears in the 0083 comics.
Data plans got leaked by spies so if they go through with using it, you're risking something that's possibly tampered by the enemy and even if they're not, your enemy already knows what they are and can create counters to it
Think this is one of the reasons i never got into gundam or anime mechs....they simply dont move like lumbering heavy machinery but more snappy like natural body movement.

Mobile Suit Gundam MS IGLOO 2: The Gravity Front.
Why doesn't this thing have a model kit? >:(
The greatest achievement of IGLOO was to actually make a Guntank look cool.
Man this is my favorite gundam in GBO2. Reversing and shooting the enemy while they tried to chase me are hillarious
These are way practical than other walking mech.
Always a treat to watch feddie grunts style on some zeeks. Subverts expectations better than Star Wars
Way better than my RTX 3050.
"You have failed the vibe check" intensifies
One of the best suits federation made
Why give them arms when you aren't going to give them hands? Wouldn't side turrets be more efficient than arms? Aside from the cool appearance, a traditional tank design would probably be more efficient and allows for more armor stacking than an upper torso on treads.

Federation propaganda at its finest.
Is that ERA that doubles as a mine?!
RFV brought me here
Can we see the rtx 4090 guntank?
Wonder if that was super napalm
did this preceed the rtx-65 early type guntank or after it
rip the ppl who have to maintain those behemoths
What weapon systems do you want on this thing?
YES
What do you mean 'yes'?
YES I WANT WEAPON SYSTEMS
Whi-
ALL OF THEM
2:46 napalm finisher
That was amazing idk if you made it or it's from en anime but if you made it then please please keep up the amazing work
MSIGLOOって所謂ガチタン系のMSの無双が凄い。
Guntanks don't get enough credit. Imo they are more practical and realistic than mobile suits. We could very well build something like this today if we wanted to.
That would be great if the Big Tray-class and Dabde-class land combat ships that appear in the story were put to practical use. They are things that cannot even be transported by existing ships or railways.
ヒルドルブと戦わせてみたい...
ヒルドルブの主砲が30cmでザク·マシンガンぐらいは扱えるから···
どっちが勝てるかなぁ?
ガンタンク、早いし、強い！。ドムがやられるなんて…。もし、このガンタンクがホワイトベースに配属されてれば…
宇宙に陸戦兵器はいらんやろ
I don't know, that guntank can be cool like this
0:55 "You done gouf'd."
自爆コード入力した後のシーンが入ってないですね
クズワヨ軍曹「お前もロートルか」
Guntank with flamethrower variant.
The design is just so👌💅👌💅👌💅👌💅👌💅👌💅👌💅👌💅👌💅👌💅👌💅
Why those cool guntanks are not mass produced? Just imagine how they gonna fight aquatic ms or flying ms? Use cannon? They're fast but not too fast for those ms , the real reason why its look so op beacause it had 2 pilot at once and piloted by a special pilot
They're not difference from brown southern cross , its a special custom with advanced pilot, its up to pilot mostly but gotta agree that guntanks a great
The Land Combat Assault Guntank is a descendant of the lost Guntank, an unfortunate machine that was never officially adopted due to a confidentiality leak. It actually appears in the 0083 comics.
Data plans got leaked by spies so if they go through with using it, you're risking something that's possibly tampered by the enemy and even if they're not, your enemy already knows what they are and can create counters to it
Think this is one of the reasons i never got into gundam or anime mechs....they simply dont move like lumbering heavy machinery but more snappy like natural body movement.
2:43 Dom pilot: Ha! Got you now!
2:44
*Guntank raises gatling hand directly at Dom*
2:45 Dom pilot: *REALLY BRUH*
2:47
Ground type Guntank pilot: *NOPE*
And at 2:47, that was a smart move
Need hg or better yet mg 😅 wishful thinking me
I love how Zeon mobile suits and tanks are based on Russian spacecraft
