The AGE-2 Gundam AGE-2 Normal is the successor of the AGE-1 Gundam AGE-1 Normal introduced in the Asemu Arc of Mobile Suit Gundam AGE. It is piloted by Asemu Asuno.

Technology & Combat Characteristics[]

A next generation Gundam built based on the combat data of the AGE-1 Gundam AGE-1 Normal and also incorporates the data of Asemu's battles in Tordia.[1][2][3] It is the second Gundam built using the AGE System and is designed as a high-speed combat unit, able to transform into a Strider Form (also referred to as "G-Strider"), a fighter-like form which flies at three times the speed of its MS mode.[3] In this form, AGE-2 is capable of atmospheric entry.[4] The repulsive force propulsion technology found in the AGE-1S Gundam AGE-1 Spallow is applied to the shoulder-mounted moveable wings.[5]

In terms of weapons, the AGE-2 Normal possess a Hyper DODS Rifle, a shield, two beam sabers and two beam vulcans. The AGE System installed in the AGE-2 allows it to gather combat data to "evolve" the Gundam when needed. Like the AGE-1, the AGE-2 also has the Wear System, allowing it to take on other forms. The AGE-2 Normal was later recolored white in honor of Woolf Enneacle. In AG 151, the AGE-2 Normal suffered heavy damage in combat and had its AGE System and AGE Device recovered by the Earth Federation Forces, while Bisidian recovered the rest of its remains and refurbished it into the AGE-2DH Gundam AGE-2 Dark Hound.

Armaments[]

  • Hyper DODS Rifle
The basic ranged armament of the Gundam AGE-2 Normal, it is developed from the DODS Rifle and is twice as powerful.[3] It can penetrate two mobile suits with one shot and forms the nose of the Strider Form.[2][3]
  • Beam Saber
A close combat beam weapon that emits a blade-shaped beam. Like AGE-1 Gundam AGE-1 Normal's, Gundam AGE-2 Normal's beam sabers are strong enough to pierce and destroy the Vagan's mass-production mobile suits with a single stab. They can also emit a beam dagger from the bottom end. The AGE-2 Normal stores two beam sabers on its rear waist armor.
  • Beam Vulcan
Mounted in the shoulder, the pair of beam vulcans are usable only in Strider Form and are used to intercept enemy units or missiles.
  • Shield
Mounted on the left forearm, the Gundam AGE-2 Normal's shield is small in comparison to those used by other mobile suits of the era. Due to its small size, the shield is extremely maneuverable and effective in close combat.
  • Marker Shot
A pistol-like weapon with non-lethal ammo used for target practice.

Special Equipment & Features[]

The AGE System is the special OS engineered by the lineage of the Asuno family. It researches the evolution of living beings by digitizing the mysteries surrounding it and collects battle data to customize itself, grows alongside the pilot and is customized and used exclusively by the pilot itself. The only way for this system to be used and the Gundam to mobilize is by using the AGE Device.
  • Wear System
Like the AGE-1, the AGE-2's arms (including shoulder armor) and legs are detachable, which allows alternate sets of limbs or "wears" to be attached. In conjunction with the AGE Builder, this allows the AGE System to dramatically change the overall performance of the unit by analyzing combat data and fabricating new wear parts to adapt to new situations or enemies. The wear parts can be delivered to AGE-2 during battle using the AMEMBO support craft, saving it from having to return to its mothership/base to exchange the wear parts.

History[]

The Gundam AGE-2 Normal first sortied in A.G. 141, and successfully defeated the Vagan forces attacking the Diva. Later, Asemu used it to fight Zeheart Galette's xvm-zgc Zeydra during the latter's attack on the Diva, but was soundly defeated, although Zeheart spared him.

Asemu and his AGE 2 Normal later participated in the battle of Big Ring, encountering both Zeheart's Zeydra and Desil Galette in his xvm-dgc Khronos. Asemu teamed up with Woolf Enneacle in his G-Bouncer to face the Galette siblings, but were overwhelmed until Flit Asuno's arrival in his AGE-1F Gundam AGE-1 Flat turned the tide of the battle.

During the attack in Solon City, Asemu defeated the Vagan forces inside the colony with the AGE-2 Normal. Shortly afterwards, the AGE-2 Normal was upgraded to the Gundam AGE-2 Double Bullet, enabling Asemu to destroy two X-Rounder-use xvv-xcm Zedas Ms with ease during the battle outside of the colony.

In A.G 142, the AGE-2 Normal was painted white in honor of Woolf's memory. Asemu used it to battle the Vagan forces that attacked Brucia, led by Medel Zant, and easily defeated them.

In A.G 151, Asemu was on a mission to find a missing ship. During his search, Asemu and his AGE-2 Normal encountered Bisidian's Wivik Lambro in his BMS-005 G-Xiphos. Suddenly, they were approached by the giant mobile suit Sid, leaving Asemu with no choice but to team up with Wivik to battle it. The two managed to overwhelm Sid at first, but it proceeded to repair itself and heavily damaged the AGE-2 Normal in their next battle. After the battle, the Earth Federation Forces only salvaged the AGE System and AGE Device, while Bisidian recovered the remains of the AGE-2 Normal. At Asemu's request (who had decided to join Bisidian), the AGE-2 Normal was refurbished to hide the fact that he survived, resulting in the Gundam AGE-2 Dark Hound.
