The ZM-S06GD Zollidia Desert was a variation of the Zanscare Empire’s ZM-S06G Zollidia. Developed for desert combat, its joints were dust proofed to protect against sand intrusion. The Zollidia Desert featured an antenna behind its head, and extra armor was added to the torso. It implemented spikes on its shoulders and knees for melee combat, reminiscent of old designs from the Principality of Zeon. Its other armaments included vulcan guns, beam sabers, a beam rifle and a shield. The Zollidia Desert was planned for deployment to the Middle East and Africa.
