The MBF-02+AQM/E-X01 Aile Strike Rouge is a high mobility mobile suit introduced in the anime Mobile Suit Gundam SEED. It reappeared in the sequel series Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny, but was replaced by the MBF-02+EW454F Strike Rouge Ootori in the HD Remaster version. The Aile Strike Rouge's primary pilot is the Princess of Orb, Cagalli Yula Athha.

Technology & Combat Characteristics[]

Like the GAT-X105+AQM/E-X01 Aile Strike Gundam, equipping the MBF-02 Strike Rouge with the AQM/E-X01 Aile Striker pack improves the MS' speed and maneuverability. Aile Strike Rouge is the most commonly seen form of Strike Rouge, and is armed with two head-mounted CIWS guns, two combat knives, a beam rifle, a shield and a pair of beam sabers stored on the Aile Striker.

Though never stated, it seems the Aile Striker pack for the Strike Rouge was upgraded by the Orb Union between the end of the first war and the second war. The original Aile Striker pack did not have full flight capability in the atmosphere, but during the second war, the Aile Strike Rouge was able to fly in Earth's atmosphere alongside the ZGMF-X10A Freedom Gundam on several occasions.

Armaments[]

  • "Igelstellung" 75mm Multi-barrel CIWS
Mounted in the Strike Rouge's head are two "Igelstellung" 75mm multi-barrel CIWS guns. These light projectile weapons are used to intercept missiles, to destroy lightly armored vehicles, etc.
  • "Armor Schneider" Combat Knife
Stored in the Strike Rouge's side skirt armor is a pair of folding "Armor Schneider" combat knives. These knives do not need power from the suit, can be thrown, and their blades vibrate at high speed allowing them to pierce through most armor except PS armor.
  • Beam Saber
Stored in the Aile Striker is a pair of beam sabers. These are the primary close combat weapons and can slice through any armor that does not have an anti-beam coating.
  • 57mm High-energy Beam Rifle
Aile Strike Rouge's primary ranged combat weapon, it can be stored on the side skirt armor. The beam rifle can easily destroy a ZGMF-1017 GINN with one shot, but is mostly ineffective against suits with anti-beam coating. It has an additional handle that can shift to the side, and is often used for extra stability when the Aile Strike Rouge is firing its rifle rapidly.
  • Shield
A piece of equipment designed to increase the Strike Rouge's defensive capability, it is mounted on the left forearm and/or handheld. The shield does not have phase shift armor, so it is not as durable as the Strike Rouge's armor, however it also does not drain energy each time it is hit. The shield's major advantage is that it is anti-beam coated and can block or deflect beam weapon attacks, against which phase shift armor is ineffective.

Special Equipment & Features[]

The key feature of the Strike Rouge is its ability to equip additional equipment in the form of striker packs. Each striker pack is designed to outfit the MS with the equipment needed to fulfill specific combat roles with maximum efficiency.
Like the Strike, the Strike Rouge is equipped with Phase Shift armor, although the active colours are red and pink rather than the blue, red and white of the first Strike. This is a side effect of the power extender, which also resulted in improved armor strength of the Phase Shift armor system. This system is later developed into Variable Phase Shift armor.
  • Power Extender
A device that improves a mobile suits energy storage capacity, allowing it to use its Phase Shift Armor for a longer duration than other mobile suits.
  • AI (Artificial Intelligence) Support System
A pilot-assisting AI system that helps an inexperienced pilot in controlling the MS.
  • Booster
In Seed Destiny, the Aile Strike Rouge is equipped with a large booster unit to help the suit leave orbit.

History[]

While rebuilding the Strike Gundam that was badly damaged outside the territory of the Orb Union, substantial spare parts enough to build another Strike were produced. These parts were later loaded onto the Kusanagi and assembled into a Strike variant, called the Strike Rouge, during the last days of the First Alliance-PLANT War. It was piloted by Cagalli Yula Athha, who used the suit during the Second Battle of Jachin Due on 26 September, CE 71.[1] Among her actions was the rescue of Athrun Zala, who detonated his ZGMF-X09A Justice Gundam inside ZAFT's superweapon GENESIS to prevent it from firing on Earth.[2]

The Aile Strike Rouge remained operational even during the Second Alliance-PLANT War, and served as Cagalli's personal mobile suit after she and the crew of the Archangel left Orb. She launched in her suit at both Dardanelles and Crete to convince the Orb forces not to fight against the ZAFT ship Minerva with little success. Later, the Aile Strike Rouge was modified to Kira's specifications and launched into space using a booster unit so as to protect the Eternal.[3] Unfortunately, the Aile Strike Rouge was no match against ZAFT's newer mobile suits and was heavily damaged.[3] The wrecked Aile Strike Rouge was then recovered by the Eternal[3], but what happened to it subsequently is unclear.
