GFAS-X1 Destroy Gundam

The GFAS-X1 Destroy is a gigantic transformable mobile suit developed by the Earth Alliance. It is very heavily armed and is also equipped with three positron reflector shields. Its armament includes 2 large dual beam cannons, a composite thermal plasma cannon consisting of 20 cannons around the circumference of its backpack, and 24 missile launchers on its massive backpack, an energy cannon and 4 CIWS guns on its head, 3 multi-phase beam cannons on its chest and beam cannon on both forearms. Each fingertip on the hands is also furnished with a beam cannon. The forearms can also be detached for use as remotely controlled weapons. It is easily capable of wiping out large numbers of enemy units, and can destroy an entire city in a matter of minutes. In mobile armor mode, the Destroy is capable of hovering at low altitudes and propelling itself forward with its thrusters.

The GFAS-X1 Destroy uses the operating system Gigantic Unilateral Numerous Dominating Ammunition Fortress.

The Destroy is stationed aboard the land carrier Bonaparte and then piloted by Extended human Stellar Loussier. It sorties several times against ZAFT-occupied cities in Eurasia, until it is destroyed in Berlin by ZGMF-X10A Freedom pilot Kira Yamato. Later, five more Destroy units are deployed in defense of LOGOS's "Heaven's Base" headquarters in Iceland, one of them piloted by Extended human Sting Oakley. These units devastate the combined fleet of Alliance renegades and ZAFT forces that attack Heaven's Base, but are in turn destroyed by the combined efforts of ZGMF-X42S Destiny pilot Shinn Asuka, ZGMF-X666S Legend pilot Rey Za Burrel, and ZGMF-X56S Impulse pilot Lunamaria Hawke.

Three more Destroys are stationed in the EAF's Daedalus lunar base to defend the Requiem superweapon, but they are all defeated in battle by ZAFT's advanced mobile suits Destiny and Legend in a surprise attack.

This should not be confused with the GT-9600-D Gundam Leopard Destroy from After War Gundam X

Trivia

 * Destroy's concept and design are very similar to the MRX-009 Psyco Gundam in Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, and its mobile armor mode closely resembles the MA-08 Big Zam in Mobile Suit Gundam.
 * The detachable hands of the Destroy closely mirror those found on the MSN-04 Zeong. However, unlike those hands, these are competely wire-free.
