A late production variant of the RGM-79 GM, the RGM-79C GM Type C featured improved output and numerous other modifications, while also incorporating newly developed technology, with the aim of achieving the objectives set by Operation V. It was intended to serve as a reference template for the GM series, which had a number of wildly different designs and specifications due to being produced during wartime. The GM Type C prioritized productivity throughout its development process and became a highly stable and reliable unit.

The Type C's head unit, while mostly following the basic structure of the standard GM, also incorporated mechanisms from the D Type and the G Type. Various devices and sensors have been replaced with components that were easier to produce, contributing to improved productivity. Some secondary co-processor frames and monitoring equipment, as well as various subsystems, were simplified. The head vulcan guns, which were highly effective as close-range weaponry, received an increase in ammunition capacity. Finally, to enable easy modification based on operational needs, the arrangement of various terminals was improved, making customization and tuning easier to implement.

The GM Type C entered mass production near the end of the One Year War. It was designed to be the reference template for the GM series, since the design and specification of GM variants produced during the war were heavily inconsistent. The earliest prototypes were tested around October U.C. 0079, before receiving the designation of RGM-79C in early December.
