The RX-78-2 Gundam (Japanese: RX-78-2 ガンダム, Hepburn: Āru Ekkusu Nanajū Hachi no Ni Gandamu) is a piloted robot (mecha), introduced in 1979 in Yoshiyuki Tomino's and Sunrise's anime series Mobile Suit Gundam. In the series, it is a prototype weapon used by the Earth Federation. The mecha ends up in the hands of Amuro Ray, the son of Tem Ray, who designed the Gundam. Amuro Ray goes on to pilot the mecha for the Earth Federation in their war against the Principality of Zeon. This model was the first in the Gundam franchise. The robot's design was the first of many variations in subsequent works. Many future Gundams use the RX-78-2's color scheme and general shape.
