Special Equipment & Features[]
- Hardpoints for Striker Packs
- The Dagger is equipped with laminated armor to protect its vital areas. However, unlike the one used on warships, the armor used here is made of heat-resistant ablative gel DPX-30, which is more commonly used by warships for atmospheric re-entry. While this offered no increased protection against projectile weapons, it provided defense against mobile suit-scale beam weaponry.
History[]
Second Alliance-PLANT War[]
Battle of Heaven's Base[]
During Operation Ragnarök, several Jet Daggers participated in the defense of Heaven's Base against ZAFT.[1]
Post-war Conflict[]
In C.E. 75, several Jet Daggers were deployed by Blue Cosmos remnants alongside other mobile suits to attack Aldrin City in Africa. They easily overwhelmed the local ZAFT garrison, but were pushed back by a Compass strike team led by Kira Yamato in the STTS-909 Rising Freedom Gundam. Later, a few Jet Daggers were among the mobile suits used to defend Blue Cosmos remnants' headquarter, located in Eldore Fortress in Eurasia, against the combined forces of Compass and the Kingdom of Foundation. They were eventually annihilated when a mysterious nuclear missile hit the area.[2]
