Technology & Combat CharacteristicsEdit

The Striker Custom is a special mobile suit developed from the aging GM Series as a successor to the GM Striker. Because of its 'peakiness,' that machine was a mobile suit that few pilots could handle. It has the head of a Gundam and the body of a GM Striker. The unit has specialized arms and a new backpack used to store its weapons as well as increasing the suit's performance. The unit also has specialized weaponry like the Knuckle Daggers, Burst Knuckles, and Spark Knuckles, which were all used for close combat. Also, the unit is equipped with a shield for defense against incoming missiles.

As shown by this equipment, the Striker Custom is not designed for Long Ranged Combat. However, the unit's strength and power are compared with the Titans' RX-121 Gundam TR-1 Hazel.

ArmamentsEdit

  • Head Vulcan
  • Beam Saber
  • Custom Beam Saber
  • Spark Knuckle
The unique close combat armament of the Striker Custom. The Spark Knuckle is a hand held electrifying weapon located on the hands of the mobile suit. This is used for close combat.
  • Burst Knuckles
The Burst Knuckles were the suit's specialized beam sabers used as Katars.
  • Knuckle Daggers
The Knuckle Daggers are two sharp serrated swords used to cut down enemy mobile suits. These also can be used as throwable weapons as well.

Special EquipmentEdit

  • Heavy Armor
Heavy armor is mounted all over the body of the Striker Custom. It increases the Striker Custom's defensive capabilities, providing extra protection against the light weapons used by Zeon's mobile suits through shock absorption.
