Techology & Combat Characteristics
The AMF-101 DINN is an aerial mobile suit of ZAFT (Zodiac Alliance of Freedom Treaty). It is designated an Aerial Maneuver Fighter by ZAFT, thus designated "AMF". The only fixed armament of the DINN are four 6-tube multipurpose launchers, which are mounted in the chest of the suit. Additionally, the suit usually carries a single MMI-M7S 76mm heavy assault machine gun, the same type used by the ZGMF-515 CGUE and an MMI-M100 190mm anti-aircraft shotgun in its hands, which grant the DINN additional firepower for both aerial battles or attacks on the ground. Both of these weapons can be stored on the hips of the suit when not needed.

History
Following ZAFT's invasion of Earth during the first Bloody Valentine War, a new type of mobile suit was needed to grant ZAFT forces the military power to fight against the Earth Alliance' own aerial machines. On May 20, CE 71, the DINN was eventually fielded, which gave ZAFT an advantage in aerial combat. The DINN is closely related to the commander type CGUE, but is much more lightly armored, in order to reduce weight for aerial combat. In flight, the DINN's wings extend and a helmet-like piece covers its head. The DINN is not only stationed at ZAFT's planetary bases but also carried by Vosgulov-class submarines, from which they are deployed through specialized catapults.
The DINN eventually became the standard mobile suit used by ZAFT on Earth which participated in many battles on the planet, including the massive Operation Spit Break, an attack on the EA's JOSH-A base. During this attack, ZAFT commander Rau Le Creuset piloted a silvery colored DINN. The suit was also stationed in some PLANT colonies, among them the new ZAFT colony Armory One. During the time of the Second Bloody Valentine War, the DINN was slowly replaced by the more advanced and heavily armed AMA-953 BABI.
During and after the first EA/PLANT war, ZAFT created at least three variants of the DINN. These models were the AMF-103A DINN RAVEN, the AME-WAC01 DINN Special Electronic Installation Type and the AMRF-101C AWACS DINN, with the later two designed being used primarly for search and recon missions.
