In Gundam, the Earth Federation is very low on pilots. Char Aznable snd the Zeon have been outperforming them both in combat and mobile suit advancement. Amuro's father was supposed to be the pilot for the RX-78 before Zeon attacked and tried to steal it.
And then there's the whole NewType thing later in the series where younger generations of pilots are able to connect with a mobile suit via their Brain.

Also Earth Federation in the beginning doesn't have any veteran MS pilots because that's basicly their prototype suit.
But then again Gundam is more dystopian overall than Star Trek.
The deathcout of the OYW for example is just insane, even compared to the Wolf-359 massacer
