LM312V04 Victory Gundam is the titular multi-mode tranformable mobile suit. It was featured in the anime Mobile Suit Victory Gundam. The unit was piloted by protagonist Uso Ewin, until he acquired its direct descendant, the LM314V21 Victory 2 Gundam.
Designed around a Core Fighter base, the Victory Gundam consisted of a "Top Fighter" and "Bottom Fighter", each of which could be separated and docked with a Core Fighter or operated via remote control from another Core Fighter. This modular/docking design not only increased the chances of pilot survivability, thus allowing a pilot to continue fighting if part of his mobile suit was damaged or destroyed, but also allowed for replacement of destroyed modules mid-battle if needed.
The LM312V04 Victory Gundam was the first mobile suit to incorporate the "Minovsky Flight" system, a miniaturized Minovsky craft system designed to keep the mobile suit hovering in mid-air at any altitude while maneuvering with its rocket and vernier thrusters. The Minovsky Flight technology would later serve as the basis for the LM314V21 Victory 2 Gundam's much more advanced "Minovsky Drive."
