The Sinope was a class of space patrol ship developed by the Zanscare Empire. The Sinope could support two mobile suits, which could dock with the craft and use a double-sided hatch to directly access the craft’s cockpit. The Sinope’s sole armament was a pair of 10-tube missile launchers. In UC 0153, LM312V04 Victory Gundam pilot Uso Ewin and his friends captured a Sinope, which was repainted white and named Fishbone.
