Technical and Historical Notes
The first successful "mobile armor" weapons platform fielded by the Zeon Duchy, the Adzam was designed for close-range suppression of multiple ground targets. Mobile armors are, in fact, closer to extremely mobile warships than mobile suits, and frequently have very little in the ways of a humanoid appearance.

The Adzam is powered by a large reactor and kept aloft via the recently-completed Minovsky-craft compressor, which provides a constant hover effect as long as power is provided. It is bolstered by eight turbines along its "leg" pylons for additional lift and control. In combat, it is intended to orbit around the target, hammering it with accurate mega particle salvos while also providing close-range support for friendly units.

This mobile armor is heavily armed and armored. Its eight double-barreled mega particle cannons can lay down 360-degree fire without trouble, and due to their placement, it has no blind spots. Furthermore, it is also equipped with three experimental "leader" weapons, which hover over a group of clustered targets, deliver two-dozen wires into the nearby ground, and pump high-voltage current into the "dome" created. Originally intened for use against tanks, it is also quite capable of reducing mobile suits to ashes.


Weapons and Features
Leader - A rather unique weapon that would later be deployed on the Val Valo, the Leader works by discharging electrically conductive dust onto a group of targets, then creating an electric current around a dome created by a group of wires. Depending on the charge given, it can either disable or destroy a group of small targets.

Cockpit - The Adzam requires two pilots to operate, and like most mobile armors has an enlarged cockpit.
