Technical and Historical Notes
Based on the PMS-MDC-01SS Gundam Star-Streak, the
Mars Defense Corps drew up plans for a scaled down version suitable for
mass-production. Dubbed the "Star-Streak Mass Production Type", or
simply "Ess-S MP" for short, the mobile suit was intended to fill a
general purpose role, toting a fair balance of ranged and melee
weaponry. While the Ess-S MP was slated to carry a beam boomerang like
the ones on the Gundam, its other armaments were more basic, and the
optional megacannon was left off of the mass production unit's design
specs. Plans to put this unit into production were shelved when the
Preventers split into factions, many of them fleeing to Mars and
bringing their more powerful Gryphon
and Basilisk suits with them.
