Please help identify this cartoon.

I am fairly sure that this is an 80s cartoon. I remember it being on the air during the same years as GI Joe, Transformers, and Robotech. It involves a group of five or six soldiers who are all dressed in white battle armor and have their own, unique weapons and armor mods. They are a group which are combatting a COBRA-like terrorist organization who are using chemical warfare that produce these zones of mist or vapor. If you enhale the mist, you turn into a zombie with red patches all over your skin. I'm pretty sure that it is anime similar to the above named series. I just can't seem to remember the name. Hopefully, I haven't pieced together several series into what I think is a childhood memory. Thanks for any help offered.

Spiral Zone(87)

The evil scientist Overlord, develops a device that is able to spread an engineered virus across half the globe. The virus makes the infected mindless zombies. Overlord is able to treat a group of his mercenaries and make them immune to the zone's effects, although the treatment leaves their faces with red markings. His soldiers are called the Black Widows.

The nations not under the influence of the virus pool their resources to create an elite team to stop the evil doctor and his forces.Only those with special helmets are immune to the effects. The forces of good are called the Zone Raiders. Their mission was to end the reign of Overlord by destroying his emitters, and finding a cure for the strange infection.
