The Alvaaron is part of the mobile armor GNMA-XCVII Alvatore. When the mobile armor section can't be operated, the upper section of the armor will detach to reveal it's mobile suit form. The top upper-section armor is actually the Alvaaron's wings and the two turrets are actually GN Beam Rifles that complements the mobile suit. The mobile suit itself is themed partially after the Gundams, but also after an angelic centurion.

Combat Characteristics
Alvaaron is a custom made mobile suit, having combat qualities of an artillery and melee assault MS. It was two beam rifles for mid-range firing and two beam sabers for melee combat. While its speed and strength is comparable to a Gundam, Alvaaron isn't strong against high speed MS combatants. The wings of Alvaaron triples as a physical shield/armor, GN Field generator, and particle cannon. Although a formidable MS against Gundams, Alvaaron's wings are both its strength and weakness. Should the wings be damaged in combat, both the GN Field and particle cannon capabilities are disabled. As any GN Field, Alvaaron's field can be compromised through physical GN Blades. This would reduce Alvaaron to a close range combat MS.
Armaments
GN Beam Rifle
The two beam rifles of Alvaaron were originally part of Alvatore's overall weapons compliments. In it's Alvaaron form, the guns are used for short to mid-range firing. Its power and capabilities are similar to the GN-X series.
GN Beam Saber
Behind the torso of Alvaaron, the armor are expandable flaps that contain the beam sabers. The strength and power of the beam sabers are formidable against Celestial Being made versions.
GN Wings
The wings of Alvaaron is a large particle emitter/generator, function as both a GN Field generator and particle cannon. A GN Field is generated when the wings shift forward to partially cover Alvaaron; when the lower tip of the wings extend forward, it's a particle cannon. The wings itself is a physical armor/shield to Alvaaron, but unclear does the wings give Alvaaron greater maneuverability (since Exia can do multi-vector maneuvers without such equipment).
System Features
GN Field
The wings of Alvaaron can generate a formidable GN Field, a particle field that can be generated faster than Gundam Virtue; undefined if its field strength is greater than that of Virtue though.
History
The unit debut in episode 25, The GNMA-XCVII Alvatore was destroyed by Setsuna/Exia and it revealed itself from the wreckage. It was a formidable foe with its wings capable of creating a GN Field and amplifying the firepower of the GN Beam Rifle to fire powerful beam shots. However the Exia with its GN Sword was able to defeat the Unit and kill Alejandro.
Alvaaron Vs Exia
Alejandro wasn't finished with Exia/Setsuna as he transformed the upper section of Alvatore into Alvaaron. Alvaaron used it's wings in a forward position to fire a GN Beam Particle Cannon at Exia. Alejandro thought he won, but realized that Exia executed Trans-Am for ultra high speed combat. Exia penetrated and disabled Alvaaron's GN Field and used all its blades to destroy Alvaaron. Alvaaron was severely damaged and shortly exploded.
