RX-78 Gundam Mk-II 

The Gundam Mk-II, a direct successor of the Titans' RX-78-2 Gundam, is the first mobile suit to make use of the new moveable frame concept. This revolutionary concept's movable frame does more than just provide structural support; it houses all of the mobile suit's essential mechanisms, such as the actuators and control systems needed for movement. The mobile suit's armor, propellant tanks, and weaponry are left out. This method makes the mobile suit far more nimble than conventional designs and significantly increases its responsiveness, dependability, and energy economy.
