The????RX-79BD-2 Blue Destiny Unit 2????is a variant of the????RX-79??????G?????? Gundam Ground Type. It first appeared in the game????Mobile Suit Gundam Side Story: The Blue Destiny. It belonged to the????Earth Federation Forces????before the unit was stolen by the????Principality of Zeon????and piloted by????Nimbus Schterzen.

Though in many ways similar to the Gundam Ground Type, Blue Destiny Unit 2 was quite a bit different in other ways, particularly in its armament. Besides the replacement of the GM style head with the Gundam head, both Units 2 and 3 were different in design features than Unit 1. Unlike its predecessors the Blue Destiny Unit 1 and the Gundam Ground Type, which were both designed for ground combat, Blue Destiny Unit 2 was primarily designed for space combat, though it could be used on Earth.

Though it retained the chest vulcans and missile launchers from Unit 1, Unit 2 replaced the ground use 100mm machine gun with the beam rifle used by the Gundam Ground Type. The ground type shield used by the Unit 1 was replaced by????RGM-79G GM Command's shield. After Nimbus stole the Unit 2, he had its shoulder armor repainted red, although any other possible customizations he made to the unit are unknown.
