Due to the use of the Aile Striker, it also has an extra pair of beam sabers. When necessary, the Aile Striker can be replaced by other Striker Packs more suited for the situation. Like the Dagger, Slaughter Dagger has laminated armor to protect vital areas.

In CE 73, a group of [[Mars|Martians]] came with the ''[[Acidalium]]'' to the Earth Sphere to check the situation and to meet with representatives of all superpowers. During the first meeting between the Martians and members of the EA (which were actually part of the Phantom Pain), the group was "greeted" by Slaughter Daggers. Shortly afterwards, another battle ensued and the Martians eventually fled. The group then reached the [[Orb Union]] but the Phantom Pain insisted that Orb helped them destroy the Martians. To keep this operation a secret, five Orb pilots were given Slaughter Daggers, each mounting a different Striker Pack, to attack the ''Acdialium''. The whole task force was led by Phantom Pain and [[GAT-X105E+AQM/E-X09S Strike Noir]] pilot [[Sven Cal Payang]].

After the Mars ship left Orb's territory, the task force split up and attacked the ship. The Sword Slaughter Dagger, piloted by Hoskin Gira Sakato, used his rocket anchor to tether the ''Acidalium'' to the sea floor, while Gard Dell Hokuha in his Lightning Slaughter Dagger and Sars Sehm Elia in her Launcher Slaughter Dagger used their ranged weapons to attack the ship from afar. In the meantime, Vanfeldt Ria Lindsay in his Slaughter Dagger and Waid Rabby Nadaga in his Slaughter Dagger IWSP fought against the [[GSF-YAM01 Δ Astray]], piloted by [[Ergnes Brahe]]. Hoskin was eventually defeated by [[Nahe Herschel]] in his [[GSF-YAM02 Guardshell]], while both Sars and Gard were taken down by [[ZAFT]] pilot [[Isaac Mau]] in his [[TMF/A-802W2 Kerberos BuCUE Hound]], who accompanied the ''Acidalium'' on orders from [[PLANT Supreme Council]] chairman [[Gilbert Durandal]]. Vanfelt was then shot down by Ergnes, while Waid's IWSP pack was taken by Sven (who had lost his own Noir Striker), causing the reckless Orb pilot to crash into the waters.

Some time later, several Slaughter Daggers under the command of Sven were used to completely destroy a supposed terrorist training camp. After that, a large Phantom Pain unit, which included multiple Slaughter Daggers attacked the [[Deep Space Survey and Development Organization|DSSD]] space station to steal the [[GSX-401FW Stargazer]]. During the attack, they fought against the [[UT-1D Civilian Astray DSSD Custom]] as well as the Stargazer. Eventually, the Phantom Pain fleet was destroyed.

The GAT-01A2R 105 Slaughter Dagger (aka 105 Slaughter Dagger, Slaughter Dagger) is a custom mobile suit introduced in the OVA series Mobile Suit Gundam SEED C.E. 73: STARGAZER.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

A customized GAT-01A1 Dagger used by Phantom Pain. Besides the change in color, the Slaughter Dagger is modified to be lighter and its OS is adjusted for better performance. Furthermore, it is equipped with an improved, higher output AQM/E-X01 Aile Striker as part of its standard equipment, granting it full flight capability in the atmosphere as well as improved mobility in space.

The Slaughter Dagger's armament is largely identical to Dagger's, except that it uses a MX703G beam rifle instead of the handheld machine gun or the M703 beam rifle. Due to the use of the Aile Striker, it also has an extra pair of beam sabers. When needed, the Aile Striker can be replaced by other Striker Packs more suited for the situation. Like the Dagger, Slaughter Dagger has laminated armor to protect vital areas.

Armaments

  • "Igelstellung II" 40mm Multi-barrel CIWS
The Slaughter Dagger mounts two "Igelstellung II" 40mm multi-barrel CIWS guns in its head to intercept incoming missiles or enemies at close range. Unlike the earlier G-project machines and Strike Dagger's, these CIWS are smaller in caliber to increase the amount of ammunition available. Like the other suits, the CIWS can automatically engage incoming enemy units by using the FCS automatic control system.
  • ES01 Beam Saber
Capable of generating a beam blade, a pair of this melee combat weapons are stored on the side armors when in not use. Another identical pair are mounted on the Aile Striker.
  • 12.5mm Anti-infantry Gun
One in each foot, these six-barreled guns are used to shoot down enemy soldiers on the ground and are powerful enough to cause severe damage to an area covered with humans. They are installed to avoid the criticism that mobile suit weapons are overkill against infantry.
  • MX703G Beam Rifle
The primary handheld ranged weapon of the suit. Its outer appearance is identical to the GAU-8M2 52mm Machine Gun, but its internal component has been changed to those of a beam rifle's. It is a trial weapon that serves as proof that shell and beam firing weapons can co-exist on a common platform.
  • Shield
Also known as "Anti-Beam Shield", it is widely equipped by Dagger Series MS and can defend against most beam and physical attacks. It can be mounted on the forearms or hand-carried.

Special Equipment & Features

The Slaughter Dagger retains the ability to mount Striker Packs like the original Dagger, granting it the ability to adapt to different combat situations easily.
  • Laminated Armor
Like the Dagger, Slaughter Dagger is equipped with a modified laminated armor 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

During the First Alliance-PLANT War, the Earth Alliance created the GAT-01A1 Dagger, a mass-produced version of the prototype GAT-X105 Strike Gundam. However due to its high production cost, the EA instead mass-produced the more simplified GAT-01 Strike Dagger during the war and resumed production of the Dagger only after the war ended. The Slaughter Dagger is a special variation of the Dagger used by Phantom Pain special forces unit under the command of Logos. As a result, the Slaughter Daggers were used in many inhumane operations conducted by Phantom Pain, both on Earth and in space.

In December C.E. 73, a group of Martians came with the Acidalium to the Earth Sphere to check on the situation and to meet with representatives of all superpowers. During the first meeting between the Martians and Earth Alliance members (which were actually part of Phantom Pain), the group was "greeted" by Slaughter Daggers. Shortly afterwards, another battle ensued and the Martians eventually fled. The group then reached the Orb Union, but Phantom Pain insisted that Orb helped them destroy the Martians. To keep this operation a secret, five Orb pilots were given Slaughter Daggers, each mounting a different Striker Pack, to attack the Acdialium. This task force was led by Phantom Pain and GAT-X105E Strike Noir Gundam pilot Sven Cal Bayang.[1]

After the Acidalium left Orb's territory, the task force split up and attacked the ship. The Sword Slaughter Dagger, piloted by Hoskin Gira Sakato, used his rocket anchor to tether the Acidalium to the sea floor, while Gard Dell Hokuha in his Lightning Slaughter Dagger and Sars Sehm Elia in her Launcher Slaughter Dagger used their ranged weapons to attack the ship from afar. In the meantime, Vanfeldt Ria Lindsay in his Slaughter Dagger and Waid Rabby Nadaga in his Slaughter Dagger IWSP fought against the GSF-YAM01 Δ Astray, piloted by Ergnes Brahe. Hoskin was eventually defeated by Nahe Herschel in his GSF-YAM02 Guardshell, while both Sars and Gard were taken down by ZAFT pilot Isaac Mau in his TMF/A-802W2 Kerberos BuCUE Hound, who accompanied the Acidalium on orders from PLANT Supreme Council chairman Gilbert Durandal. Vanfelt was then shot down by Ergnes, while Waid's IWSP pack was taken by Sven (who had lost his own Noir Striker), causing the reckless Orb pilot to crash into the waters.[2]

Sometime later, several Slaughter Daggers under the command of Sven were used to completely destroy a supposed terrorist training camp.[3] After that, a large Phantom Pain unit, which included multiple Slaughter Daggers attacked DSSD's Toroya Station to steal the GSX-401FW Stargazer Gundam and its AI unit. During the attack, they fought against the space station's UT-1D Civilian Astray DSSD Customs as well as the Stargazer. Eventually, the Phantom Pain fleet was destroyed.[4]

  • The 2004 HG SEED GAT-01A1+AQM/E-X04 Gunbarrel Dagger model kit manual mistakenly captioned the "GAU-8M2 52mm Machine Gun" as the "M703 mm beam rifle". The 2006 HG SEED GAT-01A2R 105 Slaughter Dagger model kit manual retconned that this was actually the MX703G, a type of beam rifle using the same frame as the GAU-8M2 machine gun.
  • In the manga "Mobile Suit Gundam SEED C.E. 73 Δ Astray", Waid Rabby Nadaga's Slaughter Dagger is depicted to be using the P202QX IWSP. However, the lineart released later depicted it as using the AQM/E-M1 IWSP.
