Technical and Historical Notes
On October 2, C.E. 73, an elite unit of the Earth Alliance forces
conducts a raid on ZAFT's Armory One PLANT and steals three new
Gundam model mobile suits. After examining the specs of these
suits, the Alliance creates the GAT-X399/Q Wild Dagger, based on
the ZGMF-X88S (RGX-03) Gaia Gundam. The Wild Dagger features the
same quadruped mode as the Gaia Gundam, although it's armaments
differ. As a counter-insurgency mobile suit, the Wild Dagger is
armed with vulcan guns, beam sabers, a Gatling cannon, tail cannon
and multipurpose turret (which can carry beam cannons, missile
launchers, swords, etc). In addition, the Wild Dagger can also use
hand weapons designed for the GAT-02L2 Dagger L. mount on back.
Although the Wild Dagger is a prototype design, it is put into
limited mass production and 72 units are built. Miscellaneous
