The Gust is a wanzer model that has long been a part of the Front Mission series. It appeared in all main series installments except Front Mission 3. It also appeared in Front Mission Online. It is produced by Diable Avionics of U.S.N. America.

Overview[]

The Gust and its variants have been characterized by its strong armour and mobility, but rather mediocre output. These suggests that it would make good assault wanzers. Its two arms can be internally equipped with machineguns. However, in later appearance, it is seen with standard arms. If these are variants of the same model or not is not explicitly stated. The Gust seems to have proven itself to be competent assault units, and is widely deployed by the U.S.N. Army, as they were seen being piloted by U.S.N. assaults in Huffman Island. Gust and its variants were also seen being deployed by the U.S.N. army when it attempted to regain control of Venezuela and when it invaded Madeira Island. However, they were not exclusive to the U.S.N., as the European Community, even though it was a rival of the U.S.N., was known to use the Gust; in addition, the Alordesh Revolutionary Army also operated Gust wanzers.

The Gust wanzer model has two branches series, namely the Vapor and the Storm.
