GAT-X303 Aegis Gundam HG
By jykwan | June 23, 2008
GAT-X303 Aegis Gundam, one of my favourite gundams due to its sophistaced fighter tranformation. Appeared in the first Seed series and was apparently a stolen unit from the OMNI enforcer. Armed with 2 x “Igelstellung” 75mm multi-barrel CIWS, 4 x beam saber, 60mm beam rifle, and a huge “Scylla” 580mm energy cannon. This to me is really one gundam which catches peoples attention. Unfortunately its only available in HG. I guess its just to complex to make an MG out of it or a PG I wish.

As we can see the GAT-X303 Aegis fighter mode is like no ordinary airplane with wings, it looks more like a spear head. This is what makes it special, thrusting around like a sharp spear you do not want to be infront of when flying around. Funny thing is i don’t recall it flying in earths atmosphere in the series but only in space, most probably because there is no wings (sad).

Another thing about GAT-X303 Aegis flight mode is that it opens up to a bigger weapon not available in GUNDAM mode, which is the huge “Scylla” 580mm energy cannon, one of the biggest cannon in the Seed Series arsenal, almost or bigger than most cannons found on most battleships. This is one surprising weapon for a gundam especially when its inbuilt stock with the gundam itself. Because it is able to open up that way it also provides the ability to grapple huge stuff like…. another gundam for instance.
