YMAF-A6BD Zamzazar

In the anime series Gundam Seed Destiny, the YMAF-A6BD Zamzazar is a prototype amphibious mobile armor created by the Earth Alliance. It has a giant body with a unique, crab-like shape. Three crew members are required to control the Zamzazar (a pilot and two gunners, one operating the claws and the other operating the beam cannons). Each of the Zamzazar's four limbs is equipped with a retractable hyper-oscillation claw, a projectile cannon, a multi-phase energy cannon, and 4 CIWS guns. Besides this a powerful array of weapons, it also has a powerful positron reflector shield, strong enough to even deflect the positron cannon blast from ZAFT's Minerva.

The Zamzazar was deployed in CE 73 from a fleet of Earth Alliance ships just outside of Orb territorial waters, to attack Minerva as a field test of the new weapon. In the ensuing battle, it deflected a beam from Minerva's "Tannhäuser" positron cannon and proved a substantial challenge for Shinn Asuka's ZGMF-X56S Impulse Gundam. Although it ripped away the Impulse Gundam's right leg with one of its claw, it was ultimately destroyed when Shinn went into SEED mode and stabbed the mobile armor through the cockpit with his beam saber.
