No, like Godzilla it was a deconstruction of WW2 and Japan's defeat.

Actually you probably could make an argument for it, since most mecha back then were super robot and Gundam had mass-produced robots vs mass-produced robots rather than a single big robot beating the shit out of giant monster robots.
