The ZGMF-1017 GINN is a mass-produced general purpose mobile suit introduced in the anime series Mobile Suit Gundam SEED.

ZAFT's first official mass-production mobile suit, the GINN was developed by the Heinlein Design Bureau, one of PLANT's state-run military design bureaus. It boasted higher versatility and expandability than its predecessor, the YMF-01B Proto GINN, and was capable of using a wide variety of weapons. While the GINN inherited much of its design from the Proto GINN, its mobility and maneuverability were greatly improved thanks to enhanced thrusters, including a pair of large backpack thrusters. Although classified as a Zero Gravity Maneuver Fighter, the GINN could function both in space and on Earth.

In addition to the head-mounted mono-eye, which served as the mobile suit's main camera, the GINN featured a crest-shaped multi-functional sensor array with a camera at its base (with a LLLTV function), allowing the pilot to gather battlefield information in real time. This system would later be used by many ZAFT mobile suits developed between C.E. 70 and C.E. 71. Another notable feature of the GINN was that it had several hardpoints for mounting or storing its weapons, located on the left, right and back of the waist, as well as on the side of its legs.

Most of the GINN's weapons were designed to combat the OMNI Enforcer's mobile armors, including its main weapons, the 76mm heavy assault machine gun and the heavy blade. To adapt to various battlefield situations and combat requirements, such as anti-ship combat or fortress assault, a wide range of optional weapons were developed for the GINN. Among them was the D-type (meaning "destruction") equipment, the heaviest of GINN's weapons, designed for anti-fortification operations.

The combat abilities of one GINN was said to be equivalent to that of three to five TS-MA2 Moebius mobile armors used by the OMNI Enforcer, and it could single-handedly destroy an enemy escort ship. This led to the ZAFT gaining an upper hand in the early stages of the war. Due to the GINN's excellent versatility and expandability, many variants were developed and deployed, such as the ZGMF-1017M GINN High Maneuver Type tuned for ace pilots, and the ZGMF-LRR704B GINN Long Range Reconnaissance Type for reconnaissance. Additionally, there are GINN units customized to suit their pilots, such as the ZGMF-1017 Miguel's GINN.
