The Neutron Stampeder is a defense weapon system introduced in the anime Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny.

Technical Information[]

The Neutron Stampeder is a device that remotely controls the movement of free neutrons to induce runaway nuclear fission reactions. When activated, it causes the immediate detonation of any nuclear weapons within its area of effect, but it can only be used once because the quantum fresnels that make up its firing mechanism disintegrate during use, and it is effective only against enemies who are using nuclear technology. ZAFT uses a prototype version of the Neutron Stampeder, attached to a Nazca-class destroyer and nearly as large as the ship itself, to defend the PLANTs from a nuclear attack following the Break The World incident.

History[]

After the First Alliance-PLANT War and the massive use of nuclear weapons against PLANT during the last battle, ZAFT created a new defensive weapon to protect itself against another massive nuclear attack on their homeland. The result was the experimental Neutron Stampeder, which was mounted on a Nazca-class destroyer. At least one such device was created; however, due to the fact that each Stampeder can only be used once, it is possible that more exist as replacements.

In C.E. 73, after the "Break The World" Incident, the Second Alliance-PLANT War between PLANT and the Earth Alliance began. The EA sought to quickly defeat PLANT by launching a massive nuclear attack on the PLANT capital Aprilius One. A large number of the new GAT-04 Windam mobile suits equipped with Multi Striker Packs headed towards Aprilius One and fired their nuclear missiles. ZAFT, however, had anticipated such an attack and positioned the prototype Neutron Stampeder in the firing way of the nuclear missiles. When the Stampeder was activated, a massive energy wave was fired towards the EA fleet, causing any remaining nuclear weapons on the ships and mobile suits to detonate, which resulted in the attacking fleet to be completely wiped out.[1] Although the Neutron Stampeder was rendered useless, it wasn't needed during the remainder of the war.
