Their sharper, more angular silhouettes and paint schemes stood out on the battlefield, and they were usually piloted by elite Red Coat-class pilots.
Gates, meanwhile, were the latest high-performance MS ZAFT had deployed in combat. Rumor had it that the output and technical specifications of their power systems were already approaching the level of GAT units. Their streamlined white armor and wing-shaped thrusters made them exceptionally agile in battle, and they were equipped with advanced weapons such as Beam Rifles and Beam Sabers.
These MS spread out in squads, each standing ready under its pilot's control.
Inside the cockpits, pilots' fingers hovered over the controls, their eyes fixed on the clusters of red dots steadily approaching on the detection screens.

The Earth Alliance fleet likewise deployed into combat formation. Countless Strike Daggers and Moebiuses were launched in succession from within the massive Agamemnon Class carriers and Nelson Class battleships.
The Strike Dagger was the Earth Alliance's mainstay MS. Its design was based on data from the GAT-X Gundam series, but its manufacturing process had been greatly simplified for mass production.
Its angular gray-white armor bore seams and weld lines everywhere, the result of cost-cutting, but that did not make it easy to deal with.
Armed with Beam Rifles and Beam Sabers, Strike Daggers were no less formidable
