Delusion-MS #053: RGM-79CA GM Raid
The machine performance and armament described in this article are all based on our own research and are unsubstantiated delusions.
MS Name: GM Raid
Source: Mobile Suit Gundam: The Blazing Shadow / Bonds of the Battlefield
Referenced: Powered GM, Pale Rider (GHA), Striker Shield, etc.
Machine Concept
This unit focuses primarily on melee combat. Its effective range is extremely narrow, requiring the pilot to close the distance to deal damage. While reckless assaults are risky due to its lack of long-range fire, it excels at disrupting enemy balance once within its optimal range.
The weapon's base power is low, but the Melee Correction is exceptionally high (50). Furthermore, its unique attack motion modifiers (N/Up: 100%, Side: 80%, Down: 140%) ensure its firepower remains competitive with top-tier machines.

Main Weapon: GM Raid Shotgun [M-Weapon #003]
A 3-round burst shotgun with high accumulation damage. It fires 15 pellets per shot (50x15x3 = 2250 potential damage). While the recoil is strong and movement is slow immediately after firing, it can reliably stagger enemies at close range (150m). Cannot be fired while jumping.
Secondary: Heat Dagger x2 [Sub-Weapon #003]
Hit Effect: Heavy Stun
Features extremely fast switching speed. Although combo skills do not apply to this weapon, its downward attack can instantly knock down enemies, or its normal hit can set up a devastating combo with the primary Beam Saber.
Negates the stagger reaction that occurs when the shield is destroyed. This ensures that the GM Raid can maintain its Maneuver Armor momentum and continue its assault even under heavy fire that breaks its defenses.
