Of the five prototype
Earth Alliance
mobile suits
secretly developed at satellite
Heliopolis,
only this one escapes capture by
ZAFT
forces. The Strike Gundam is equipped with the same
Phase Shift Armor
as the other
GAT-X units,
rendering it almost invulnerable to physical attacks, and its shield has an
anti-beam coating
to protect it from energy weapons. The Strike can also be adapted to a variety of combat situations by attaching different
Striker packs,
and since these weapon modules also contain backup energy batteries, they can be used to recharge the mobile suit itself in mid-battle. With the young
Coordinator
Kira Yamato
at its controls, the Strike's performance far exceeds anything its designers could have expected.
