Bandai Gundam HG 1/144 R02 Duel Gundam Assault Shroud
Product Info
About the Mobile Suit:
The Duel Gundam Assault Shroud is an upgraded version of the original Duel Gundam, first introduced in Mobile Suit Gundam SEED. Originally developed by the Earth Alliance, the Duel Gundam was captured and piloted by Yzak Joule of ZAFT. The Assault Shroud is a specialized armor upgrade that provides enhanced protection and increased firepower, making the Duel Gundam more formidable in both offensive and defensive combat situations. The armor includes additional weapon systems, like a shoulder-mounted railgun and missile pods, adding to the mobile suit's versatility in battle.
With the Assault Shroud equipped, the Duel Gundam is not only heavily armored but also capable of delivering devastating ranged attacks, turning it into a mobile artillery unit while maintaining its proficiency in close-range combat. This dual capability made it one of the more balanced units in the ZAFT forces during the Earth Alliance–ZAFT conflict.
