The Sazabi is a fictional mobile suit from the Universal Century timeline of the Gundam franchise. It made its debut in the 1988 film Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack. Developed by Neo Zeon, the Sazabi was designed as the personal mobile suit for Char Aznable, one of the series' most iconic antagonists. It represents the pinnacle of Neo Zeon's mobile suit technology at the time of its creation.

The Sazabi is characterized by its imposing size and powerful armament. It features a distinctive red color scheme, a signature of Char's mobile suits. Its weaponry includes a beam shotgun, beam tomahawk, beam sabers, and a variety of missile launchers. A notable feature is its large propellant tanks, which enhance its mobility and operational range, allowing for sustained combat.
