In the aftermath of the Delaz Fleet's Operation Stardust, the Earth Federation created an elite task force called the Titans to subdue Zeon activities and Spacenoid rebellions. Since the Titans operated outside the jurisdiction of the Earth Federal Forces, they produced their own mobile suits. Their first mobile suit was the RGM-79Q GM Quel, which was a variation of the RGM-79N GM Custom. The GM Quel was so similarly armed that one of the few difference was the characteristic black-and-blue paint scheme used by the Titans on several of their mobile suits. Another difference was that the GM Quel was designed for use in colonies, whereas most mobile suits were designed for use on Earth or in space. Over time, the GM Quel became outdated and was replaced by newer designs, such as the RGM-79R (RGM-179) GM II and the RX-178 Gundam Mark II.
