The Blitz is a Mobile Suit in the series Gundam SEED.

Contents

Combat Abilities

Designed as an assault-use mobile suit, the Blitz features several special weapons and technologies. Among the weapons used by the suit are an anchor and a offense/defense system, mounting several weapons.

Armaments

Anchor

The left forearm of the Blitz mounts the "Gleipnir" anchor, a weapon which can be fired to pierce an enemy unit and then retrieved on a line. A similar technology is installed on the GAT-X105+AQM/E-X02 Sword Strike Gundam in form of the "Panzer Eisen" rocket anchor.

Offense/Defense system

Mounted on the right arm of the suit, the "Trikeros" offense/defense system is the main weapon of the Blitz and includes several features. For ranged weapon the system mounts a 50mm high-energy beam rifle as well as three lancer darts that can be fired or be used for close combat. The main weapon used in close combat is however a single beam saber which is mounted on the Trikeros. Lastly the system is also used as a shield.

System Features

Mirage Colloid stealth system

The Blitz is the first mobile weapon to use the Mirage Colloid technology. The stealth system is a field of microscopic prisms held in magnetic suspension around the Gundam by use of the same energy conduits used to generate the Phase Shift armor (which naturally renders PS useless while the Colloid is active). However since the system needs a lot of energy it can only be activated for up to 80 minutes. Also since Phase Shift armor can't be activated during use or Mirage Colloid, the Blitz is highly vulnerable in cloaked state if an enemy is able to find its position.

History

The Blitz is one of five mobile suits created by the Earth Alliance under its G Project during the Bloody Valentine War. Together with the other four units it is stored secretly on the Orb Union controlled space colony Heliopolis.

On January 25, CE 71 the Blitz, along with three other mobile suits of the G Project is stolen by ZAFT, with Nicol Amalfi becoming the designated pilot of the unit. Together with his comrades he uses his suit to pursue the Archangel to capture the last of the five suits, the Strike. During the Archangel's stay on the Eurasian Federation-controlled Artemis asteroid, Nicol uses the Blitz to infiltrate the asteroid base, by using its Mirage Colloid to penetrate the "Umbrella of Artemis" and severly damages the facility.

In late May the Blitz looses his right arm in combat with the Sword Strike and is finally destroyed when he tries to protect his friend Athrun Zala. Nicol is killed along with his Gundam.

Orb recovers the right arm of the Blitz, and uses it in the construction of the MBF-P01-Re<AMATU> Astray Gold Frame Amatu, giving it use of the Mirage Colloid.
