CAT1-XG Hyperion G

The Hyperion G is a Mobile Suit in the manga series Gundam SEED Frame Astrays.

Combat Abilities
The armament of the Hyperion G is largly similar to the one on the original CAT1-X Hyperion series, although the number of weapons has been reduced. It features two multi-barrel CIWS guns in its head, two "Romteknica" RBW Type 7001 beam knifes (instead of the original five), a "Zastava Stigmate" RFW-99 beam submachinegun with a "Romteknica" RBW Type 7001 beam bayonette mounted on it, a single "Forfanterie" beam cannon and lastly a GAU-8M2 backpack-mounted 52mm machinegun. Like the original unit, the Hyperion G also mounts the Armure Lumiere" mono-phase lightwave shield system, although it mounts only one shield emitter.

History
During the first Bloody Valentine War, the Eurasian Federation built three unique mobile suits, which were knwon as the Hyperion series. Eventually, a limited-production variant of this suit was developed, with at least two known units built. This suit was called the Hyperion G, which features similar armament as the original unit, although it's head design differs slightly, and it is equipped with a standard Dagger-type shield.

The Hyperion G is eventually fielded in the Republic of East Asia. The CAT1-XG1/12 Hyperion G Unit 1 is piloted by Three Socius, while Serpent Tail mercenary Gai Murakumo is given the CAT1-XG2/12 Hyperion G Unit 2. Gai's Hyperion G is severely damaged in combat and Gai abandons it in favor of his powerful new MBF-P03 third Gundam Astray Blue Frame Third. Though only those two units have been shown, it is likely that a total of twelve units were produced - as evidenced by the "12" at the end of the Hyperion G's designation codes.
