>I find it weird that space colonies seem more vulnerable to getting holes blown in them by mobile suit fire than an actual mobile suit is.
I've talked about this a bunch in the past but how fragile Colonies are in Gundam is probably the single least realistic thing in any iteration of the franchise, a properly built O'Neil Cylinder would be built so thickly in even it's thinnest points(like even the "glass" would actually be a transparent alloy rather than actual glass and even that would be dozens of meters thick) that they'd be effectively invulnerable to all but the absolute largest super weapons in the franchise(so things like GENESIS or a Colony Laser), regular MS weaponry would barely scratch anything and even high end beam weaponry would only deal very minor cosmetic damage

like even the reactor explosions >>22927480 brings up wouldn't really do any meaningful damage to the colony structure(sure if it went off inside the colony it'd do a bunch of damage to more fragile internal components but nothing that would compromise the colony itself)

Geara Doga's are mediocre budget suits, they're about roughly on par with the GM III in overall performance and barely have any armor at all to save on costs(and the Geara Zulu is supposedly even more of a budget suit than its predecessor)
