MSN-03 Jagd Doga

The Jagd Doga is a fictional mobile suit designed by Yutaka Izubuchi for the anime movie Char's Counterattack; it has also appeared in the Super Robot Wars franchise and the PlayStation 2 title Climax U.C..
In Char's Counterattack
Two Jagd Doga mobile suits appear in the theatrical film Char's Counterattack - the only appearance in an official animation to date - and employed by the Neo Zeon forces under Char Aznable. Both Jagd Dogas are operated by Newtype pilots Gyunei Guss and Quess Paraya, and both were destroyed before the end of the second Neo Zeon movement at the film's conclusion.
The Jagd Doga is a special-purpose mobile suit for Neo Zeon Newtype pilots, based on the frame of the Geara Doga general purpose unit (though its outward appearance differs significantly). They are of the same type mounted on Char Aznable's personal mobile suit, the MSN-04 Sazabi. Standard armament features a beam saber with an attached heat knife, a half-dozen missiles stored in the shoulder armor, and a quartet of mega particle cannons positioned in the arm-mounted shield. Other weapons varied from unit to unit.
The first customized unit, which sports an aquamarine color with gold trim and a prominent antenna on its head, is piloted by artificially-enhanced cyber-Newtype Gyunei Guss, and equipped with a beam assault rifle mounting an attached grenade launcher. After being damaged in combat, Quess abandoned this unit and subsequently came to use the gargantuan mobile armor Alpha Azieru. and likewise a pair of Mobile Suit in Action (MSiA) figures in 2002. Both Jagd Dogas were featured in the recent 1/200th-scale "High Complete Model Progressive" - HCM Pro - lineup in 2006. The Jagd Doga, in both Quess and Gyunei colors, joined the 1/144-scale High Grade Universal Century lineup in October 2007; it is the first Char's Counterattack mobile suit featured in the series. Expensive, high-quality resin kits have been manufactured by B-Club.
The Jagd Doga is one of many mechanical designs used on the long-running Super Robot Wars franchise by Banpresto. Both the green and yellow "Gyunei" design and the red-and-white "Quess" design have appeared in several Super Robot Wars games. As with just about all Gundam units, they are classified as "real robots" within the game's "real robot/super robot" categories.<ref name="srw"/>
