GN-010 Gundam Zabanya

Gundam Zabanya is the successor unit to GN-006 Cherudim Gundam featured in Mobile Suit Gundam 00 The Movie: A Wakening of the Trailblazer. The unit is piloted by Lockon Stratos.

Technology & Combat Characteristics
Zabanya is a reconstructed variant of GN-006 Cherudim Gundam, with redesigned weapons and system upgrades. Due to limited resources, Celestial Being was unable to create a new Gundam from the ground up. With the need for a new fire support unit, they opted to create Zabanya over Cherudim's frame to conserve resources while still maintaining a combative edge against the ESF.

Zabanya is a departure from its traditional role as a long-range sniper, placing more emphasis on artillery while still retaining its sniping capability. While Zabanya retains Dynames' and Cherudim's forehead ocular scope for Sniper Mode, a series of targeting sensors on its legs and shoulders were built onto the unit for greater accuracy and efficiency in combat. Weapons-wise, GN Micro Missiles are laced throughout its armor and the large containers attached to its back contain at least ten GN Rifle Bits. Also, in the 3rd Preview Trailer, Zabanya was shown dual-wielding what appeared two GN-Sniper Rifles.

Unconfirmed aspects of Zabanya include a secondary system feature(s) while Trans-Am is active and (like Cherudim) secondary/dual functions for its weapons.

Armaments
Note: The names below are speculative, based on previous naming conventions, and are subject to change.

GN Rifle Bits II
10 Rifle Bits are stored in the weapons pods mounted on Zabanya's rear. When facing numerous opponents Zabanya can use the rifles as either handheld rifles or remote weapons. More details unknown.

It appears that the Remote Weapons can be mounted on the shoulders when not in use
