Although fairly common during the Seventh Space War, after the confrontation between the (Old) Earth Federation and the Space Revolutionary Army these units are very rarely seen.  Only one unit has been confirmed in existance since AW0001, and that is the Gundam Leopard belonging to Roybea Loy, a Mercenary pilot working for the Vulture ship Freeden.  Kid Salsamille, the Freeden's chief mechanic, would make several alterations to the mecha, enabling it to even fight underwater, with the addition of the S-1 Unit.  

Roybea Loy's Unit would eventually be severely damaged, in a fight with the Federations Monster Mobile Suit, the NRX-010 Gabul mobile suit, which had shield generators that made it beam weapon-proof.  Although the Gabul was destroyed after the Leopard attacked it at close range with its entire missile payload, it was nearly destroyed, and severely damaged.  

Kid Salsamille would rebuild the unit, arming it with even more weapons, and beam cannons, and rename it the GT-9600-D Gundam Leopard Destroy.  Roybea was thus, able to use this better armed unit more effectively against the New Federations new Mobile Suits.

Pilot: Roybea Loy
Appearances: After War Gundam X

[1]The Head and Hands are small targets , and are difficult to hit.  Therefore, even with a called shot, they are -3 to hit.

[2]Destroying the Head Sensor Unit will disrupt the Gundam Leopard Destroy's ability to receive radio signals and has a 50% chance of destroying the radar and laser tracking systems. This will eliminate the bonuses for Strike and Dodge.

[3]Depleting the MDC of the Main Body will disable the Gundam Leopard Destroy.
