| During the Anti-Earth Union Group's uprising against the Earth Federal Forces' corrupt Titans force, civlian contractor Anaheim Electronics found itself caught in the middle, despite the fact that the company was a secret AEUG supporter. One of the mobile suit designs developed by Anaheim for the AEUG was the RMS-108 Marasai, based partially on the Federation's successful mass production RMS-106 Hi-Zack unit. However, Anaheim soon found itself under the scrutiny of the Titans, and Anaheim provided the Marasai design to the Titans in a gesture of goodwill (and to keep the Titans from taking action against them for their support of the AEUG). The Marasai, though in many ways similar to the Hi-Zack, was a big step up in terms of abilities and performance. Mounting the latest gundarium armor and equipped with a higher-output generator, the Marasai was capable of using beam weapons, and was slightly better in terms of speed and maneuverability. The Marasai, like its Hi-Zack predecessor, was easy to pilot and maintain, and it saw heavy mass production during the Gryps War, operated by both the regular Earth Federal Forces and the Titans. |
