MA-06 Grandine

This article is about a fictional weapon from the After War timeline of the anime Gundam metaseries.

In the anime series Gundam X, the Grandine was a very large mobile armor developed by the Space Revolutionary Army to serve as a mobile garrison headquarter and field artillery unit. Its most powerful weapon was a photon particle launcher cannon but it was also equipped with 4 beam cannons on the legs. Although it could walk with its four legs, it was also equipped with a hovering system to hover over the ground.

Although the exact number of Grandines is unknown, one unit survived the mass colony drop and fell into the hands of Von Alternative, the chief of a Newtype research laboratory in North America. Alternative made a deal with the Frost brothers, which schould bring him the Newtype girl Tiffa Adil but then he wanted to end the pact. For this, he intended to use the Grandine to destroy the brothers as well as the Vultures which had kidnapped Tiffa from with the particle cannon. However, Freeden pilot Garrod Ran used the satellite cannon of his GX-9900 Gundam X to destroy the Grandine.
