Technical and Historical Notes
Basically a RX-79[G] configured with the same equipment as the GM sniper the major difference is due to the gundam having it's equipment rack the sniper beam rifle's external power and cooling iis now mounted there rather than using a hovertruck. tthis unit was also used to test all of the prototype sniper equipment iit's combat data would be later applied to the gm sniper line.

Re: RX-79[G] Gundam Sniper

Still, a mask would be nice. Otherwise I don't the see the need in equipping the Gundam with the same thing since the GM functions well enough. If it were an improvement that'd be cool but TBH I think this idea is kinda bland
