Revision as of 11:09, 30 July 2010
GNX-704T/AC Ahead Sakigake (aka Mr. Bushido's Ahead, Sakigake, Ahead) is a GNX-704T Ahead that's customized for close combat for Mr. Bushido in season 2 of Mobile Suit Gundam 00.
Technology & Combat Characteristics
In keeping with the pilot's apparent obsession with Japanese samurai culture, his Ahead resembles an armored samurai, down to its main armament (a pair of beam sabers styled after a katana and wakizashi. The cable behind its head is for providing extra energy to whichever weapons it might use. But due to its inconvenience in connecting and disconnecting, there is a special GN condenser mounted in its shield, for recharging of the extra-powerful saber. The thrusters on the Ahead's shoulders are usually horizontal, but Mr Bushido has made them vertical for reducing interference with the swinging of the Ahead's arms .
Armaments
GN Beam Saber
Primary melee armament. Held with two hands. Due to its extra output, the input is also correspondingly higher. Since the normal input given by the Ahead is not enough, the GN condenser in its shield can be used for fast charging. Mounted in the shield, or on pylons on its left and right. The blade is styled after a samurai's katana.
GN Short Beam Saber
Backup armament mounted on the left hip. Small and has low operation time, but the power rivals that of the normal beam saber. The blade is styled after a wakizashi, the traditional backup weapon of a samurai.
GN Short Beam Cannon
Internalised in the shoulder thrusters. Higher rate of fire and smaller, but lower power than a standard beam rifle. Used for restricting the enemy in a close quarter fight.
System Features
History
While Major Lindt was handling his underwater operation against Celestial Being, Mr. Bushido in his Custom Ahead sortied on standby. Major Lindt's operation failed and 00 was about to destroy the carrier's command deck when Graham/Ahead intervened by ramming into 00 Gundam. Graham recognized the pilot's combat style and was happy he was fighting against Setsuna. Graham felt fortunate for a chance to redeem his honor through fighting 00/Setsuna. Graham's rematch was cut short with the sudden appearance of Kataron interference. Colonel Mannequin thought the situation was disadvantageous and he was ordered for a tactical retreat with their carrier.
Shortly after that A-Laws received a reliable tip of the location of Katharon. Mr. Bushido along with a squadron of GN-X's went to destroy Katharon. While reaching upon their destination, Mr. Bushido expressed no interest in partaking in exterminating Katharon and flew off against his commanding officer's dismay. Even though Celestial Being appeared, Mr. Bushido never intercepted them. It was speculated that he either returned to the MS sea carrier or didn't care to intervene because Setsuna/00 was absent in the battlefield.
Celestial Being was then discovered to be traveling outside borders of the Rub'al Khali desert. Mr. Bushido/Sakigake along with his GNX squadron went to intercept the Gundams. To Mr. Bushido's delight, he was given orders to handle 00 Gundam. As the Gundams engaged them in battle, Mr. Bushido/Sakigake charged in with his beam saber to face Setsuna/00. Mr. Bushido/Sakigake fared well against Setsuna/00, even feeling insulted that Setsuna/00 isn't going all out on him. After cutting down 00 Gundam's GN Shield II , Setsuna/00 executed Trans-Am. Mr. Bushido was glad to see Setsuna/00 giving his best against him. Setsuna/00 used high speed combat to flank his position and chop off Sakigake's left MS arm. Mr. Bushido/Sakigake attempted to evade, but was about to be finished by Setsuna/00 when the Gundam broke down. Mr. Bushido/Sakigake didn't want to finish off a helpless opponent and left him off. His squad leader wasn't pleased with his actions, but he just ignored them.
After that battle Mr. Bushido had determined that his Sakigake was completely outmatched by the 00 when it used Trans-Am. Knowing that he couldn't defeat the pilot of the 00 when he was going all out Mr. Bushido left his squad in order to request a new custom mobile suit that would have the speed and strength to match the Gundam.What has happened to the Sakigake remains unknown.

Notes
- The name "Ahead Sakigake" is redundant, as "Sakigake" is a Japanese translation of "Ahead".
- Like other mobile suits piloted by Graham Aker/Mr. Bushido, The Sakigake is one of the few mobile suits that is left-handed.
