Zaku II (Char)

MS-06S Zaku II Commander Type (MS-06S 指揮官用ザクII) or simply Char's Zaku (シャア専用ザク or シャアザク), is an enhanced variation of the MS-06 Zaku II. This Zaku II was used by the Principality of Zeon during the One Year War. One of the differences is that it has the commander/ace antenna on its head. The most notable pilot of this MS is Char Aznable who piloted it during the beginning of the Gundam series. A Federation officer reported that this model was "three times faster" than other Zaku II units, despite its bulkier gross weight.

This MS was introduced approximately the same time as the mass-produced Zaku II (MS-06F), though it was piloted by rather skilled pilots, including The Black Tri-stars. Later, the MS-14S Gelgoog Commander Type would be introduced, which was referred to as the Commander Type Zaku II's "Truest Successor".
