Technical and Historical Notes
During the First Earth Alliance/ZAFT War, the Alliance creates the GAT-01A1 Dagger, a mass production version of the GAT-X105 Strike Gundam. Unlike the Alliance's first mass production suit, the GAT-01 Strike Dagger, the Dagger series is compatible with the Strike Gundam's Striker packs. The GAT-01A1+AQM/E-X02 Sword Dagger is armed with the same "Schwert Gewehr" anti-ship sword, "Panzer Eisen" rocket launcher and "Midas Messer" beam boomerang used by the GAT-X105+AQM/E-X02 Sword Strike Gundam.
