One of many F90 Gundam F90 optional armament variations developed by the Earth Federation Forces’ SNRI during the UC 0110s and 0120s, the F90H Gundam F90 H-Type (Hover) was designed to perform high-speed, hit-and-run attacks on ground-based targets. Inspired by the old Principality of Zeon’s MS-09 Dom which tormented the EFF during the One Year War, the F90 H-Type was equipped with a set of hovering jet thruster packs all over its body, allowing the Gundam to skim along the ground at high speeds. Armed with a pair of 4-tube missile launchers, a grenade launcher pack, and a hand-carried beam pistol, the Hover Type was certainly well-suited for high-speed ground combat.
