{{Cleanup}} The '''ZGMF-1027M Duel Blitz Gundam''' is a [[mobile suit]] introduced in the animated film ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Freedom]]''. It is piloted by [[Yzak Joule]]. ==Technology & Combat Characteristics== The ZGMF-1027M Duel Blitz Gundam is a version of the [[GAT-X102 Duel Gundam]] modified to run on a nuclear reactor<ref name=":0">[https://www.gundam-seed.net/freedom/mecha/mecha22.php Profile on the Official Website (Japanese)]</ref>. The cockpit has also been upgraded to that of a [[ZGMF-1000 ZAKU Warrior]]'s<ref name=":0"/>. In addition to the Duel Gundam's original weapons, it is equipped with a new [[Assault Shroud]] armor that has weaponry reminiscent of the [[GAT-X207 Blitz Gundam]]. All these changes were done by a group headed by [[Eileen Canaver]] and [[Ezalia Joule]], with the process overseen by [[Yuri Amalfi]]. ==Armaments== ;*'''"Igelstellung" 75mm Multi-barrel CIWS''' :Mounted in the Duel Blitz's head are two "Igelstellung" 75mm multi-barrel CIWS guns. Although classified as an anti-air weapon, these light projectile weapons can be used to intercept missiles and to destroy lightly armored vehicles. ;*'''MA-M99E "Magna Sectio” Beam Saber''' :The Duel Blitz has one beam saber on the Assault Shroud's left shoulder armor, which flips out when in use. It is the primary close combat weapon and can slice through any armor without an anti-beam coating. ;*'''AIM-627G Automatic Guided Mid-Range Anti Air Missile (AGMRAAM) "Torrens"''' :The Assault Shroud's left shoulder armor also houses a 2-tube missile launcher behind the beam saber, which open when in use. ;*'''XM53S Piercer Lock "Gleipnir II"''' :Mounted on the Assault Shroud's left forearm, the "Gleipnir II" is a rocket-propelled grappling claw which can be fired to pierce or grab an enemy unit and then retrieved on a line. It is the successor to the [[GAT-X207 Blitz Gundam]]'s "Gleipnir" rocket anchor. ;*'''XM61 "Lancer Dart II" Hypervelocity Kinetic Energy Penetrator''' :The Assault Shroud has two lancer darts on its right forearm. These rocket-propelled darts can penetrate armor and detonate after impact. It can also be used as a handheld spear. It is the successor to the [[GAT-X207 Blitz Gundam]]'s "Lancer Dart" hypervelocity kinetic energy penetrator. ;*'''MA-M1600/D2 High Energy Beam Cannon''' :The Assault Shroud's right shoulder armor houses a beam cannon which folds out when in use. This weapon can also be detached and used as a handheld weapon. ;*'''57mm High-energy Beam Rifle''' :The Duel Blitz can be equipped with the same beam rifle as the original Duel. This beam rifle has a single-shot 175mm grenade launcher fitted underneath the barrel that can fire a variety of grenades. ==Special Equipment & Features== ;*[[Mobile suit Embedded Tactical Enforcer|'''METEOR Unit''']] :Like the [[ZGMF-103HD Lightning Buster Gundam]], the Duel Blitz can dock with the METEOR unit, a large mobile weapons platform with powerful thrusters and an even more powerful armament of battleship-caliber beam cannons, large beam swords, and dozens of heavy missile launchers. ;*[[Neutron Jammer Canceller|'''Neutron Jammer Canceller''']] :An equipment that counters the effects of the ubiquitous [[Neutron Jammer]]s and allows the Duel Blitz to be powered by a nuclear fission reactor, giving it almost limitless combat endurance. ==History== Following the end of [[First Alliance-PLANT War]], the damaged [[GAT-X102 Duel Gundam]] was recovered by [[ZAFT]], and subsequently upgraded in secret under the orders of [[PLANT Supreme Council]] members [[Eileen Canaver]] and [[Ezalia Joule]], with [[Yuri Amalfi]] overseeing the upgrade process.{{ref|GSF (N)|5}}<!-- note: this is from vol 2 --> The Duel Blitz, along with the [[ZGMF-103HD Lightning Buster Gundam]] were then hidden in a secret [[Terminal]] weapons cache in [[Boaz]] for use in emergencies. After a coup d'état forced the PLANT Supreme Council out of the [[PLANT Colonies]], [[Yzak Joule]] would recover the Terminal weapons cache, and pilot the Duel Blitz equipped with [[METEOR]] Unit-07 to to stop PLANT National Defense Committee Chairman [[Hari Jagannath]]'s insurrectionist fleet. After the Lightning Buster destroys the thrusters on Jagannath's ship, the Duel Blitz would use its lancer darts to destroy the bridge, preventing the ship from crashing into the [[LHM-BB03S Millennium]]. Afterwards, the Duel Blitz using METEOR-07 would join in the Millennium's assault against the [[BCI-183 Gullveig]].{{ref|GSF}} ==Gallery== === Linearts === <gallery hideaddbutton="true"> File:Duel Blitz Gundam Weapon.jpeg|Weapon Linearts </gallery> === Animation === <gallery> File:Duel-Blitz-Close.Up.jpg|Close-up File:Head-Close.jpg|Head close-up with "UNO X-102" crest File:Duel-Blitz-Body.jpg|Body close-up File:Duel-Blitz-Full.Body.jpg|Duel Blitz's full body appearance File:Duel-Blitz-Side.Cockpit.jpg|Cockpit (Side view) File:Duel-Blitz-Front.jpg|Cockpit (Front view) File:Duel-Blitz-Gundam.jpg|Docked with METEOR Unit-07 File:Duel-Blitz-Meteor.Fire.jpg|Firing a full burst using METEOR Unit-07 Vlcsnap-2024-07-16-18h54m51s515.png|Launching METEOR Unit-07's missiles File:Duel-Blitz-Evade.jpg|Evading from the enemy attacks File:Duel-Blitz-Meteor.Out.jpg|Being released from METEOR Unit-07 File:Duel-Blitz-Forward.jpg|Charging forward File:Duel-Blitz-Lancer.Darts.jpg|Firing 2x Lancer Darts File:Duel-Blitz-Millennium.jpg|Protecting the Millennium </gallery> === Illustration and Artwork === <gallery hideaddbutton="true"> File:Duel Blitz Gundam Card HD.jpeg File:Duel Blitz Meteor 7 Art.jpeg </gallery> === Games === <gallery hideaddbutton="true"> File:Blitz Duel Battle Spirits HD.png|As featured in Gundam Battle Spirits File:Duel Blitz Chibi.jpg|As featured in Gundam CardassAs featured in Gundam Cardass </gallery> == [[Gunpla]] == <gallery hideaddbutton="true"> File:July-2024-gunpla-boxarts-duel-blitz-gundam.webp|[[High Grade Universal Century|HGCE]] 1/144 ZGMF-1027M Duel Blitz Gundam (2024): box art HGCE Duel Blitz Front.png|HGCE 1/144 ZGMF-1027M Duel Blitz Gundam, front view HGCE Duel Blitz rear.png|HGCE 1/144 ZGMF-1027M Duel Blitz Gundam, rear view HGCE Duel Gundam Front.png|Duel Gundam included in HGCE ZGMF-1027M Duel Blitz Gundam </gallery> ==Notes & Trivia== [[File:Duel's beam rifle launched from METEOR only to be ignored.jpg|thumb|Duel Blitz's beam rifle launched from METEOR, but ignored]] *The Duel Blitz Gundam retained the head crest of the original Duel Gundam, which has the text "UNO X-102". *Though Duel Blitz has the same beam rifle as the original Duel, the mobile suit never used it and ignored the weapon when it is launched from the METEOR. ==Appearances== {{Appearances}} ==References== <gallery hideaddbutton="true"> File:Duel Blitz Gudam Short Profile.jpeg|Short profile on Seed Freedom Twitter account</gallery> <References/> ==External links== *[https://www.gundam-seed.net/freedom/mecha/mecha22.php Profile on the Official Website (Japanese)] {{Project|SEED}} {{GSF-Mecha}}
