The ZGMF-515AS CGUE Assault is a Mobile Suit introduced in the manga Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Frame Astrays. One custom unit was piloted by Xist Elwes.

Technology & Combat Characteristics[]

Like the ZGMF-1017AS GINN Assault Type, the CGUE Assault mounts additional armor on its arms, legs, chest and backpack to increase overall performance. This set of 'Assault Shroud' armor also grants excellent atmospheric flight capabilities and is designed to allow ZGMF-515 CGUE's performance to be on par with specially developed ace-use MS. Unlike the GINN's Assault Shroud, the CGUE's Assault Shroud does not mount any additional weaponry, but the added chest armor improves heat dissipation in addition to providing better protection. Despite its benefits, the Assault Shroud soon falls out of favor as the MS development trend tilts towards ace-use MS and only a limited set of armor were produced. One CCUE Assault is captured by EA and assigned to Xist Elwes. Besides some modifications to the internal components, EA also developed a set of shoulder shield for Xist's unit to increase its combat capabilities.

Armaments[]

  • MA-M4A Heavy Blade
An improved version of GINN's heavy blade and the standard close range armament of the GGUE.
  • M7070 28mm Vulcan System Shield
A shield with a built-in vulcan cannon to improve the CGUE's close combat capability and to allow it to switch between offense and defense quickly. CGUE Assault can be equipped with two of them, one on each forearm for additional firepower.
  • MMI-M7S 76mm Heavy Assault Machine Gun
An improved version of GINN's machine Gun. It fires a type of armor piercing round designated "APSV," this round is extraordinarily powerful, but is incapable of dealing significant damage to enemies protected by Phase Shift armor. This machine gun is also used by AMF-101 DINN and its variants.
  • Shoulder Shield
An optional pair of shields developed specifically for Xist's Assault CGUE. Each shield features two Gatling guns for heavy firepower and can increase the MS's aerial mobility as well as AMBAC capabilities.

History[]

A custom colored CGUE was used by Xist Elwes. Xist's CGUE was a captured unit and modified for his custom use. Xist disliked the Assault Shroud as he turned into a robotic-like killing machine when using it. As a result, the equipment was sealed away and only used by Xist when he was desperate. In the manga, Frame Astrays, the CGUE Assault was first seen when Xist fought against Suu's ZGMF-1000 Kerberos ZAKU Warrior.
