One of ZAFT's ZGMF-X series of Gundam units build in CE 71 using technology derived from the four captured Alliance's Gundam, the Freedom Gundam has [[Phase Shift Armor]] and its armaments include CIWS guns, beam sabers, shield, plasma beam cannons, railguns, and a beam rifle. When the latter three weapons are used simultaneously, the Freedom is said to be in 'Full Burst Mode'. The suit has full flight capabilities in the atmosphere and the back-mounted wings can be deployed in "High Mobility Aerial Tactics (HiMAT) Mode" to enhance its mobility in the atmosphere or in space. It also has an advanced targeting system, the Multi Lock-On System, that allows it to target and fire at multiple enemy units simultaneously. Due to its capabilities and loadout, the suit has a reputation as a specialized 'Mobile Suit Killer', but its high performance resulted in a complicated control system that demands extremely fast reaction speed and spatial awareness from its pilot.<ref name="MG New">Master Grade Freedom Gundam Ver. 2.0 (Dramatic Combination: MG x Figure-Rise Bust) model kit manual</ref>

When required, the Freedom Gundam can dock with a support unit, the [[Mobile suit Embedded Tactical EnfORcer|METEOR unit]], for heavier firepower and greater speed. The Freedom Gundam has virtually unlimited combat endurance as it is equipped with [[Neutron Jammer Canceller]] and powered by a nuclear reactor. Kira describes the suit as having four times the power of the battery-powered [[GAT-X105 Strike Gundam]]. However, what this exactly means is unclear. The Freedom Gundam is meant to operate alongside the [[ZGMF-X09A Justice Gundam]], and they are often based on the warship [[FFMH-Y101 Eternal]] which is designed specifically to maintain them. Even in CE 73, the suit is still considered by some people, such as [[Shinn Asuka]], as the most powerful mobile suit out there. Overall, it is one of the Clyne Faction's symbols of power, along with the [[FFMH-Y101 Eternal|Eternal]], [[Archangel-class|Archangel]], and the [[ZGMF-X09A Justice|Justice]].

;*MA-M20 "Lupus" Beam Rifle
  
−
:The Freedom uses a MA-M20 "Lupus" high-energy beam rifle, which is the same rifle used by its companion unit, the [[ZGMF-X09A Justice Gundam]]. This beam rifle is stronger than the ones used by the original GAT-X series or the [[ZGMF-600 GuAIZ]] as it is powered by the suit's nuclear reactor. Can be stored on the rear skirt armor when not in use.

:The main close combat weapons of the Freedom are two MA-M01 "Lacerta" beam sabers, which are stored above the railguns. As with the beam rifle, the same type of beam sabers are used by the Justice. Since the beam sabers are powered by the suit's nuclear reactor, they have higher output than the ones used by the original GAT-X series. The two beam sabers can be combined into a twin-edged beam saber, and this form is known as 'Ambidextrous Halberd'. Kira rarely used the beam sabers in this form.

  +
:A pair of railguns that are mounted on the waist, they have an excellent rate of fire and high ammunition capacity. Folded into three parts when not in use, they can be used to deal with situations where beam weapons are ineffective and are the suit's most powerful solid-based weaponry. They are developed based on the [[GAT-X102 Duel Gundam|Duel Gundam Assault Shroud]]'s "Shiva" railgun. Although the railguns have foldable grips at the sides, they can be fired without the grips being held in hands.

===[[First Alliance-PLANT War]]===
−
In the middle of CE 71, ZAFT created a series of advanced mobile suits based on technology reverse-engineered from the captured [[Earth Alliance]] [[G Project]] suits. One of these suits is the Freedom, which is the second suit of the ZGMF-X series and can be considered the companion unit of the [[ZGMF-X09A Justice Gundam]].
  
  +
On April 1, C.E. 71, [[ZAFT]] rolled out two new mobile suits, the ZGMF-X09A and ZGMF-X10A, named "[[ZGMF-X09A Justice Gundam|Justice]]" and "Freedom" respectively by the PLANT Supreme Council Chairman, [[Patrick Zala]]. Both machines were part of a series of advanced mobile suits developed based on technology reverse-engineered from the captured [[Earth Alliance]] [[G Project]] suits.{{Ref|SEED|34}}
   
−
The Freedom is eventually stolen by [[Kira Yamato]], with the help of [[Lacus Clyne]]. Kira rushed to Earth with the stolen suit and came to the rescue of the ''[[Archangel class assault ship|Archangel]]'' at the Battle of [[JOSH-A]]. Along with the ''Archangel'', he defected to neutral [[Orb Union|Orb]] and fought alongside his old friend [[Athrun Zala]]. Later, he returned to space along with the ''Archangel'' and Orb battleship ''[[Izumo-class|Kusanagi]]'', and met up with the support vessel ''[[FFMH-Y101 Eternal]]'', which had been stolen by Lacus Clyne and her supporters, led by former ZAFT commander [[Andrew Waltfeld]], and which carried both METEOR units. Athrun and Kira used the METEORs' firepower to thwart an Earth Alliance nuclear missile attack on the [[PLANT]]s on the final day of the war. Afterward, Kira battled against [[Rau Le Creuset]] and his [[ZGMF-X13A Providence Gundam]]. The Freedom was quickly overpowered by the Providence's Dragoon System, however Kira still managed to severely damage the Providence, and destroy it by impaling the cockpit with a beam saber; killing Rau.
 +
On May 8, C.E. 71, the Freedom Gundam was [[Theft of the Freedom Gundam|stolen]] by [[Kira Yamato]], with the help of [[Lacus Clyne]].{{Ref|SEED|34}} Kira rushed to [[Earth (Cosmic Era)|Earth]] with the stolen suit and came to the rescue of the ''[[Archangel-class|Archangel]]'' during the [[Operation Spitbreak|Battle of JOSH-A]].{{Ref|SEED|35}} Along with the ''Archangel'', Kira defected to the neutral [[Orb Union]]{{Ref|SEED|37}} and used the Freedom to defend the country against an Earth Alliance attack during the [[Battle of Orb]]. During the battle, he reunited with his old friend [[Athrun Zala]] who piloted the Justice Gundam, and they soon joined forces to fight against the Earth Alliance's invasion forces, which included three new Gundams, the [[GAT-X131 Calamity Gundam]], the [[GAT-X252 Forbidden Gundam]], and the [[GAT-X370 Raider Gundam]].{{Ref|SEED|38}} Afterwards, Kira and the Freedom returned to space along with the ''Archangel'' and the Orb battleship ''[[Izumo-class|Kusanagi]]'',{{Ref|SEED|40}}{{Ref|SEED|41}} and met up with the support vessel ''[[FFMH-Y101 Eternal]]'', which was stolen by Lacus Clyne and her [[Clyne Faction|supporters]], captained by former ZAFT commander [[Andrew Waltfeld]], and which carried the two METEOR units. The three warships then joined forces, becoming the [[Three Ships Alliance]].{{Ref|SEED|42}}
   
  +
During the [[Battle of Mendel]], the Freedom and Justice once again fought the Calamity, Forbidden and Raider.{{Ref|SEED|43}} After the three machines temporarily retreated to their mothership, Kira flew the Freedom into the [[Mendel]] colony, where he rescued his comrade [[Mu La Flaga]] by swiftly disabling [[Rau Le Creuset]]'s [[ZGMF-600 GuAIZ]].{{Ref|SEED|44}} At the battle's climax, Kira attempted to retrieve a [[Life Pod]] containing [[Flay Allster]], who had in her possession data on ZAFT's [[Neutron Jammer Canceller]]. However, the Freedom was damaged by the Forbidden and Raider, resulting in the Calamity recovering the life pod.{{Ref|SEED|46}}
−
After the war, the Freedom was repaired and hidden in a secret underground base in Orb, where it remained for more than two years. It returned to action after an assassination attempt against Lacus Clyne. Kira launched in the Freedom and manages to defeat the assassins' [[UMF/SSO-3 ASH]] mobile suits. Later on, the Freedom was used by Kira in two failed attempts to stop the battling between Orb and ZAFT forces. It also destroyed the [[GFAS-X1 Destroy Gundam]] in Berlin, killing its pilot, [[Stella Loussier]]. Shortly thereafter, ZAFT launched an attack against the ''Archangel'' called ''Operation Angel Down''. During the battle, Freedom was stabbed in the abdomen by [[Shinn Asuka]]'s [[ZGMF-X56S Impulse Gundam]] and subsequently exploded. However, Kira managed to press the switch for 'Nuclear Reactor Cut Off' before he lost consciousness. His sister, [[Cagalli Yula Athha]], later rescued him and the remaining torso of Freedom from the waters using her [[MBF-02 Strike Rouge]].
  
   
  +
During the [[Second Battle of Jachin Due]], Athrun and Kira used their METEOR Units' firepower to thwart an Earth Alliance [[Nuclear Missile (Cosmic Era)|nuclear missile]] attack on the [[PLANT Colonies]].{{Ref|SEED|49}} Afterward, Kira battled against [[Rau Le Creuset]] and his [[ZGMF-X13A Providence Gundam]]. The Freedom was quickly overpowered by the Providence's [[DRAGOON system]], and lost the METEOR to the enemy's attacks. However, Kira managed to retaliate against the Providence, gradually destroying its DRAGOON pods one by one, slicing both its arms, and ultimately, impaling the Providence's cockpit with the combined beam sabers, killing Rau. The Providence was then vaporized by the last shot of the [[GENESIS]] superweapon, and the subsequent explosion heavily damaged the Freedom.{{Ref|SEED|50}}
−
ZAFT developed an advanced version of the Freedom, called the [[ZGMF-X20A Strike Freedom Gundam]], which never progressed past the prototype stage due to technical limitations and the Treaty of Junius. The incomplete unit or its plan (it is unknown which) was stolen by the independent faction [[Terminal]], that then modified the suit into a personal unit for Kira, who piloted it after the Freedom was destroyed.

After the war, the Freedom was repaired and hidden in a secret underground base in Orb, where it laid dormant for more than two years. It returned to action during an [[Assassination Attempt of Lacus Clyne|assassination attempt]] on Lacus, when Kira launched in the Freedom and swiftly defeated the assassins' [[UMF/SSO-3 ASH]]s.{{Ref|GSD|13}} Afterwards, Kira used the Freedom to "[[Kidnapping of Orb's Chief Representative|kidnap]]" Cagalli from her wedding and brought her aboard the ''Archangel'' before the ship left Orb. Later, Kira used the Freedom in two failed attempts to stop the battling between Orb and ZAFT forces during the [[Battle of Dardanelles]]{{Ref|GSD|23}} and the [[Battle of Crete]].{{Ref|GSD|28}} During the [[Battle of Berlin]], the Freedom fought and destroyed the Alliance's [[GFAS-X1 Destroy Gundam]], resulting in the death of its pilot, [[Stella Loussier]].{{Ref|GSD|32}}
  +
  +
Shortly thereafter, ZAFT launched an attack against the ''Archangel'', known as ''[[Operation Angel Down]]''. At the battle's climax, the Freedom was stabbed in the abdomen by [[Shinn Asuka]] in his [[ZGMF-X56S/α Force Impulse Gundam]] with the Excalibur anti-ship sword from the Sword Silhouette. However, Kira managed to shut off the unit's nuclear reactor before losing consciousness, successfully prevented a nuclear explosion.{{Ref|GSD|34}} His sister, [[Cagalli Yula Athha]], later rescued him and the remaining torso of the Freedom from the waters using her [[MBF-02 Strike Rouge]].{{Ref|GSD|35}}

===Legacy===

ZAFT developed an advanced version of the Freedom, called the [[ZGMF-X20A Strike Freedom Gundam]], which never progressed past the prototype stage due to technical limitations and the [[Junius Treaty]] signed after the first war. In C.E. 73, either the incomplete unit or its plans (it is unknown which) was stolen by the independent faction [[Terminal]], who then modified the suit into a personal unit for Kira, who piloted it after the Freedom was destroyed.{{Ref|GSD|39}}

==Notes & Trivia==
  +
*Freedom's head crest displays the text "X-10A DIECI", which is a reference to its model number. ''Dieci'' means ''ten'' in Italian. In-universe, it is a tribute to the creator of the first mobile suit, the Italian coordinator Gian Carlo Maniani.<ref>Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Official File/Mechanics Vol.4 (2003), pg. 8</ref>
−
===[[Gundam Build Fighters]]===
  
−
*The Freedom appears in the first episode, fighting a custom [[MSK-008 Dijeh]]. Coincidentally, both units were the second mobile suit their original pilots used.
  
−  
−
===Gundam Video Games===
  
−
*In [[Battle Assault 3 featuring Gundam SEED]], Freedom's ultimate attack is named as "Multy Beam Shot" instead of "Fullburst" in this game.
  
−
*In ''[[SD Gundam G Generation]] Advance'', [[Rau Le Creuset]] pilots the Freedom for two stages and is part of a secret event between him and Mu La Flaga.
  
−  
−
===Crossover Video Games===
  
−
*Together with its partner unit, ZGMF-X09A Justice Gundam, Freedom has no Neutron Jammer Canceller in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Robot_Wars_Judgement Super Robot Wars J]. Thus, both Justice and Freedom only gain 5 point energy refill per turn instead of 15% of their total energy, as in other [[Super Robot Wars]] series where Justice and Freedom has a Neutron Jammer Canceller installed on them.
  
−
*As the entry of Gundam SEED Destiny in ''Super Robot Wars'' series, Freedom is no longer considered as a "broken" unit in the game as it lost most of its attack that exist in the previous series. However, Freedom can still be categorized as one of the best units in the beginning of the game (especially in ''Super Robot Wars Z'').
  
−
*In Super Robot Wars L due to changed events in the series, the Freedom is not destroyed by the Impulse, but Kira returns with the Strike Freedom with no sign of the old mech to be seen. The reason for this is not known, but it may imply in the game, the Freedom was directly upgraded to it instead of it being a separate suit.
  
−
*The Real Grade (RG) model kit of Freedom has 14 HiMAT wings instead of 10. In its RG model kit, the black coloured section of Freedom's largest wings is separated with the blue coloured section.
  
−
*Freedom is one of the protagonists in ''The Great Battle Full Blast'', alongside with [[w:c:kamenrider:Tsukasa Kadoya|Kamen Rider Decade]] and [[w:c:ultra:Ultraman Mebius (Character)|Ultraman Mebius]]. As the series' standard, Freedom (as well as other mobile weapon) is sentient robot in this game. He's a hero who fight against invasion of Zeon-ZAFT Alliance, and bearer of the name Gundam from [[RX-78-2 Gundam|one of the legendary heroes]] (although he prefers to be called just "Freedom", possibly a reference to the fact that the word "Gundam" is rarely used in Cosmic Era series).
  
−  
−
==Notes and Trivia==
  
 
*According to some related books, the mock battle between Strike and Freedom proves that there was hardly any difference in power between the two mobile suits, and that the "power" in Kira's statement is not about Freedom's instantaneous output. There are also other claims such as the one in the GUNDAM SEED & ASTRAY MODELING MANUAL Vol.2 (Page 14, released on 2003 by Media Works) which noted that Kira's statement meant that Freedom Gundam has four times the performance of Strike Gundam.

  +
**Kira's line itself was likely simply a reference to [[Amuro Ray]]'s statement that the [[RX-78-2 Gundam]] has "more than five times the energy gain" when he first boarded it.
−
*Freedom's head crest displays the text "X-10A DIECI", which is a reference to its model number. ''Dieci'' means ''ten'' in Italian.
  
  +
*According to Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Official File/Mechanics Vol.4, Page 11, the cockpit of the Freedom and other mobile suits in the ZGMF-X series has a switch for ECM/ECCM (Electronic countermeasures and electronic counter-countermeasures) devices, but it did not state what these devices are or whether they are common mobile suit equipment. However, it is known that the [[AME-WAC01 DINN Special Electronic Installation Type]] can carry ECM pods, and that the [[FX-550 Skygrasper‎]] has dedicated electronic warfare packs. Additionally in Gundam SEED episode 21, the Archangel crew noticed the ZAFT forces is using ECM and ECCM technology, but they did not state the source of the ECM and ECCM.
 
*In ''Mobile Suit Gundm SEED ORIGINAL SOUND TRACK III'', released on September 21, 2003, there is a track named "Freedom Self-Destructs". Considering some other track titles are based on events from episodes that haven't aired when it was released ("Dominion Sinks", "Flay's Death"), Freedom Gundam's self-destruction in the final episodes may have been planned at some point.

*There is a typo on the prototype of Metal Build 1/100 Freedom Gundam model, where it is written that its model number series is ''XGMF'' instead of ''ZGMF''. However, this error was fixed in the final products of the model.
  
 
*For the HD Remaster of ''Mobile Suit Gundam SEED'', Freedom's Full Burst Mode is reanimated, particularly to show the railguns firing in bursts rather than as one single shot, and also to show exhaust smoke after firing. In addition, Freedom's CIWS were also fired during Full Burst. Its catapult launch sequence is also reanimated to remove the wings' double flapping during take off.

*In some games, the pair of thrusters behind the Xiphias railguns are active when flying such as in the ''OMNI Vs ZAFT'' and ''Extreme Vs'' series but go unused in most other material.

This article is about the mobile suit featured in Gundam SEED. For other uses, see Freedom (disambiguation)

The ZGMF-X10A Freedom Gundam (aka Freedom, X10A) is a mobile suit introduced in the anime Mobile Suit Gundam SEED and featured in the sequel series Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny. It is piloted by Kira Yamato.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

One of ZAFT's ZGMF-X series of Gundam units built in C.E. 71 using technology derived from the four captured Earth Alliance's Gundams, the Freedom Gundam has Phase Shift Armor and its armaments include CIWS guns, beam sabers, shield, plasma beam cannons, railguns, and a beam rifle. When the latter three weapons are used simultaneously, the Freedom is said to be in 'Full Burst Mode'. The suit has full flight capabilities in the atmosphere and the rear-mounted wings can be deployed in "High Mobility Aerial Tactics (HiMAT) Mode" to enhance its mobility in the atmosphere or in space. It also has an advanced targeting system, the Multi Lock-On System, that allows it to target and fire at multiple enemy units simultaneously. Due to its capabilities and loadout, the suit has a reputation as a specialized 'Mobile Suit Killer', but its high performance resulted in a complicated control system that demands extremely fast reaction speed and spatial awareness from its pilot.[1]

When needed, the Freedom can dock with a support unit, the METEOR unit, for heavier firepower and greater speed. The Freedom has virtually unlimited combat endurance as it is equipped with a Neutron Jammer Canceller and powered by a nuclear reactor. Kira describes the suit as having over four times the power of the GAT-X105 Strike Gundam.[2] However, what this exactly means is unclear. The Freedom Gundam is meant to operate alongside the ZGMF-X09A Justice Gundam, and they are often based on the warship FFMH-Y101 Eternal, which is designed specifically to maintain and support them. Even in C.E. 73, the suit is still considered by some people, such as Shinn Asuka, as the most powerful mobile suit out there. Overall, it is one of the Clyne Faction's symbols of power, along with the Eternal, the Archangel, and the Justice.

Armaments

  • MMI-GAU2 "Picus" 76mm CIWS
Mounted in the head, the pair of MMI-GAU2 "Picus" 76mm CIWS guns have a high rate of fire but poor penetrating power. Thus, they are mainly used to intercept incoming missiles and enemy units at close range.
  • M100 "Balaena" Plasma Beam Cannon
A pair of powerful plasma beam cannons located in the wings, they are positioned over the shoulders when in use. Amongst the suit's ranged weaponry, the Balaena has the highest firepower and longest attack range.
  • MA-M01 "Lacerta" Beam Saber
The main close combat weapons of the Freedom are two MA-M01 "Lacerta" beam sabers, which are stored above the railguns. As with the beam rifle, the same type of beam sabers are used by the Justice. Since the beam sabers are powered by the suit's nuclear reactor, they have a higher output than the ones used by the original GAT-X series. The two beam sabers can be combined into a twin-edged beam saber, and this form is known as 'Ambidextrous Halberd'. Kira rarely used the beam sabers in this form.
  • MMI-M15 "Xiphias" Railgun
A pair of railguns that are mounted on the waist, they have an excellent rate of fire and high ammunition capacity. Folded into three parts when not in use, they can be used to deal with situations where beam weapons are ineffective and are the suit's most powerful solid-based weaponry. They are developed based on the Duel Gundam Assault Shroud's "Shiva" railgun. Although the railguns have foldable grips at the sides, they can be fired without the grips being held in hands.
  • MA-M20 "Lupus" Beam Rifle
The Freedom uses a MA-M20 "Lupus" high-energy beam rifle, which is the same rifle used by its companion unit, the ZGMF-X09A Justice Gundam. This beam rifle is stronger than the ones used by the original GAT-X series or the ZGMF-600 GuAIZ as it is powered by the suit's nuclear reactor. When not in use, it can be stored on the rear skirt armor.
  • Laminated Anti-Beam Shield
Handheld and/or mounted on the left forearm, the Freedom's shield has a laminated armor surface instead of an anti-beam coating like on the shields used by most mobile suits.

Special Equipment & Features

  • High Mobility Aerial Tactics (HiMAT) Mode
The Freedom Gundam's atmospheric flight configuration, in which its wings are unfolded for higher maneuverability. The Freedom is capable of flight even in its normal mode, but this form is better suited for aerial dogfighting. The HiMAT mode can also be used in space whereby it enhances the Freedom's AMBAC capabilities.
As implied by its name, this unique system allows the Freedom to target multiple enemies and attack them at once. To use this system effectively, the pilot must have high spatial awareness capability, which is rare even among Coordinators. This system can also be used when the Freedom is docked with the METEOR unit.
  • Full Burst Mode
The name of the attack mode in which Freedom uses its beam rifle, railguns and plasma beam cannons all at once. This mode is often used together with the Multi Lock-On System to destroy large numbers of enemy units at once. However, despite its power, Full Burst Mode can only fire in a forward direction.
As with the other four ZGMF-X series of Gundam units produced in that time period, the Freedom is equipped with a Neutron Jammer Canceller, which counters the effects of the ubiquitous Neutron Jammers and allows these suits to be powered by nuclear reactors. This gives them almost limitless combat endurance, even with Phase Shift armor activated.
Like the other four units, the Freedom is equipped with Phase Shift armor. Thanks to its N-Jammer Canceller and nuclear reactor, the PS armor is capable of being active for a lot longer than on non-nuclear powered suits such as the Strike.
  • Operating System
The Freedom uses the Generation Unsubdued Nuclear Drive Assault Module Complex operating system.
Like the Justice, the Freedom can dock with the powerful 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.

History

First Alliance-PLANT War

On April 1, C.E. 71, ZAFT rolled out two new mobile suits, the ZGMF-X09A and ZGMF-X10A, named "Justice" and "Freedom" respectively by the PLANT Supreme Council Chairman, Patrick Zala. Both machines were part of a series of advanced mobile suits developed based on technology reverse-engineered from the captured Earth Alliance G Project suits.[2]

On May 8, C.E. 71, the Freedom Gundam was stolen by Kira Yamato, with the help of Lacus Clyne.[2] Kira rushed to Earth with the stolen suit and came to the rescue of the Archangel during the Battle of JOSH-A.[3] Along with the Archangel, Kira defected to the neutral Orb Union[4] and used the Freedom to defend the country against an Earth Alliance attack during the Battle of Orb. During the battle, he reunited with his old friend Athrun Zala who piloted the Justice Gundam, and they soon joined forces to fight against the Earth Alliance's invasion forces, which included three new Gundams, the GAT-X131 Calamity Gundam, the GAT-X252 Forbidden Gundam, and the GAT-X370 Raider Gundam.[5] Afterwards, Kira and the Freedom returned to space along with the Archangel and the Orb battleship Kusanagi,[6][7] and met up with the support vessel FFMH-Y101 Eternal, which was stolen by Lacus Clyne and her supporters, captained by former ZAFT commander Andrew Waltfeld, and which carried the two METEOR units. The three warships then joined forces, becoming the Three Ships Alliance.[8]

During the Battle of Mendel, the Freedom and Justice once again fought the Calamity, Forbidden and Raider.[9] After the three machines temporarily retreated to their mothership, Kira flew the Freedom into the Mendel colony, where he rescued his comrade Mu La Flaga by swiftly disabling Rau Le Creuset's ZGMF-600 GuAIZ.[10] At the battle's climax, Kira attempted to retrieve a Life Pod containing Flay Allster, who had in her possession data on ZAFT's Neutron Jammer Canceller. However, the Freedom was damaged by the Forbidden and Raider, resulting in the Calamity recovering the life pod.[11]

During the Second Battle of Jachin Due, Athrun and Kira used their METEOR Units' firepower to thwart an Earth Alliance nuclear missile attack on the PLANT Colonies.[12] Afterward, Kira battled against Rau Le Creuset and his ZGMF-X13A Providence Gundam. The Freedom was quickly overpowered by the Providence's DRAGOON system, and lost the METEOR to the enemy's attacks. However, Kira managed to retaliate against the Providence, gradually destroying its DRAGOON pods one by one, slicing both its arms, and ultimately, impaling the Providence's cockpit with the combined beam sabers, killing Rau. The Providence was then vaporized by the last shot of the GENESIS superweapon, and the subsequent explosion heavily damaged the Freedom.[13]

Second Alliance-PLANT War

After the war, the Freedom was repaired and hidden in a secret underground base in Orb, where it laid dormant for more than two years. It returned to action during an assassination attempt on Lacus, when Kira launched in the Freedom and swiftly defeated the assassins' UMF/SSO-3 ASHs.[14] Afterwards, Kira used the Freedom to "kidnap" Cagalli from her wedding and brought her aboard the Archangel before the ship left Orb. Later, Kira used the Freedom in two failed attempts to stop the battling between Orb and ZAFT forces during the Battle of Dardanelles[15] and the Battle of Crete.[16] During the Battle of Berlin, the Freedom fought and destroyed the Alliance's GFAS-X1 Destroy Gundam, resulting in the death of its pilot, Stella Loussier.[17]

Shortly thereafter, ZAFT launched an attack against the Archangel, known as Operation Angel Down. At the battle's climax, the Freedom was stabbed in the abdomen by Shinn Asuka in his ZGMF-X56S/α Force Impulse Gundam with the Excalibur anti-ship sword from the Sword Silhouette. However, Kira managed to shut off the unit's nuclear reactor before losing consciousness, successfully prevented a nuclear explosion.[18] His sister, Cagalli Yula Athha, later rescued him and the remaining torso of the Freedom from the waters using her MBF-02 Strike Rouge.[19]

Legacy

ZAFT developed an advanced version of the Freedom, called the ZGMF-X20A Strike Freedom Gundam, which never progressed past the prototype stage due to technical limitations and the Junius Treaty signed after the first war. In C.E. 73, either the incomplete unit or its plans (it is unknown which) was stolen by the independent faction Terminal, who then modified the suit into a personal unit for Kira, who piloted it after the Freedom was destroyed.[20]

Notes & Trivia

  • Freedom's head crest displays the text "X-10A DIECI", which is a reference to its model number. Dieci means ten in Italian. In-universe, it is a tribute to the creator of the first mobile suit, the Italian coordinator Gian Carlo Maniani.[21]
  • According to some related books, the mock battle between Strike and Freedom proves that there was hardly any difference in power between the two mobile suits, and that the "power" in Kira's statement is not about Freedom's instantaneous output. There are also other claims such as the one in the GUNDAM SEED & ASTRAY MODELING MANUAL Vol.2 (Page 14, released on 2003 by Media Works) which noted that Kira's statement meant that Freedom Gundam has four times the performance of Strike Gundam.
    • Kira's line itself was likely simply a reference to Amuro Ray's statement that the RX-78-2 Gundam has "more than five times the energy gain" when he first boarded it.
  • According to Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Official File/Mechanics Vol.4, Page 11, the cockpit of the Freedom and other mobile suits in the ZGMF-X series has a switch for ECM/ECCM (Electronic countermeasures and electronic counter-countermeasures) devices, but it did not state what these devices are or whether they are common mobile suit equipment. However, it is known that the AME-WAC01 DINN Special Electronic Installation Type can carry ECM pods, and that the FX-550 Skygrasper‎ has dedicated electronic warfare packs. Additionally in Gundam SEED episode 21, the Archangel crew noticed the ZAFT forces is using ECM and ECCM technology, but they did not state the source of the ECM and ECCM.
  • In Mobile Suit Gundm SEED ORIGINAL SOUND TRACK III, released on September 21, 2003, there is a track named "Freedom Self-Destructs". Considering some other track titles are based on events from episodes that haven't aired when it was released ("Dominion Sinks", "Flay's Death"), Freedom Gundam's self-destruction in the final episodes may have been planned at some point.
  • For the HD Remaster of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, Freedom's Full Burst Mode is reanimated, particularly to show the railguns firing in bursts rather than as one single shot, and also to show exhaust smoke after firing. In addition, Freedom's CIWS were also fired during Full Burst. Its catapult launch sequence is also reanimated to remove the wings' double flapping during take off.
