The ZGMF-7017 GINN Ceremonial Decoration Type is a variant of the ZGMF-1017 GINN introduced in original design series Mobile Suit Gundam SEED MSV.

Technology & Combat Characteristics[]

A variant of the ZGMF-1017 GINN, the ZGMF-7017 GINN Ceremonial Decoration Type was designed to participate in various ceremonies. Its most distinctive feature was its ceremonial paintjob, which was decorated with a special golden resin that resembled engravings on the GINN's armor. Although the pattern of the decoration appeared to follow a traditional style, it was actually designed based on visual psychology calculations to give a solemn impression to Coordinators, who did not have a common history or culture. Performance-wise, the GINN Ceremonial Decoration Type was identical to the standard GINN. The type of weapon a GINN Ceremonial Decoration Type was equipped with depended on the unit. A decorative saber was equipped on commander units, while regular units were equipped with a retro style, bolt-action, single-shot rifle.[1]

Armaments[]

  • Ceremonial 76mm Rifle
A bolt-action, single-shot rifle. The rifle's stock was made with real oak, which was growth accelerated using biotechnology. Its sling belt is made of natural leather from cultured skin tissues. Its mechanism shared parts with the standard GINN's MMI-M8A3 76mm Heavy Assault Machine Gun, allowing it to fire actual 76mm rounds. However, all production units had their chamber thinned, meaning they could only fire blanks.[1]
  • Ceremonial Saber
A decorative saber with a foam metal blade refined in zero-gravity metallurgy facility with a metallic resin coating. Although it was extremely light and rigid, it was unusable for combat.[1] This saber is stored in a sheath mounted on the left side skirt armor.
  • M68 "Cattus" 500mm Recoilless Rifle
Used by a GINN Ceremonial Decoration Type in episode 22 of Gundam Build Divers, it is the same bazooka-like weapon as used by the standard GINN. It can fire various types of rounds depending on the magazine used.

History[]

The GINN Ceremonial Decoration Type made its first appearance at the memorial ceremony for the residents of Junius Seven. The sound of the ceremonial rifle's bolt and the shell casings falling onto the ground, resonating like cracked bells, left a strong impression on the attendees.[1]

A number of GINN Ceremonial Decoration Types were present during the signing of the Junius Treaty on March 10, C.E. 72. To avenge those who died in the war, one of the GINN Ceremonial Decoration Types' pilots attempted to destroy the bridge of the Earth Alliance battleship where the signing was taking place. The pilot, a skilled sniper, planned to snipe the bridge using specialized armor-piercing rounds loaded into the mobile suit's ceremonial rifle. However, this plan was foiled by Gai Murakumo and his Blue Frame Second L.

The GINN Ceremonial Decoration Type was still in active service in C.E. 73, with some of them being used to welcome PLANT Supreme Council chairman Gilbert Durandal on the colony Armory One.[2]
