================================================================================================
Overview:
    The famous Gyan prototype once rivalled with Gelgoog for next-generation  main mobile suit
    place in Principality of Zeon military. In that time MS-15 lost in case of its excessive
    bias towards melee, which created big difficulties for new pilots in space combat. However
    the same flaw turned into great advantage in urban warfare - Gyan's beam rapier was able to
    maintain much more powerful and precision strikes than Gelgoog naginata could ever try. That
    was the main reason why somewhere in 0084 Axis Zeon ordered to Paptimus Scirocco the
    development of Gyan's upgraded version for inner reserve troops.
    Altghough MS-15 wasn't produced in great numbers and never was mentioned for expansion
    forces, these machines participated in Lavak invasion repelling. Later two Gyans were
    deployed on Yavin 4, proving themselves as reliable ambush machine - some people say this
    feat leaded to development of later Gyan descedants.

Capabilities:
    As it was mentioned before, Gyan was specifically designed for melee combat. In that case it
    got beam papier, a much more powerful version of beam saber, and brand new fencing
    protocols, giving preference to thrusting attacks instead of slashing. This made possible
    more accurate melee attacks against target's weak points, also much harder to counter. For
    self-defence MS-15 retained prototype's hoplon shield with it's needle missile launchers -
    however 8-tube mine dispencer was oftenly replaced with one-shot rockets of same size, which
    could be used on both space and ground. Refitted version of Gyan could use a wide variety of
    Zeon mobile suit weapomry, but the most preferable was combination of sturm faust and
    M-120A1 120mm machine gun in rare drum-and-belt fed version.

Deployment:
    This tactical readout was based on events of Star Wars x Gundam UC crossover
    "Звездные Войны: Железная Воля (Star Wars: the Iron Will)", written
    by Апостол Зирайя.
