In C.E. 70, ZAFT introduced its first aerial combat mobile suit, the AMF-101 DINN. In later years, ZAFT created several reconnaissance variations, including the AME-WAC01 DINN Special Electronic Installation Type and AMF-103A DINN RAVEN. In addition to those two, ZAFT also produced the AMRF-101C AWACS DINN. The AWACS DINN replaced the chest missile launchers with searchlights. The back was equipped with a sensor radome, and the flight mode’s “helmet” was modified to include additional sensor equipment. As a reconnaissance unit, the AWACS DINN was armed only with the machine gun and anti-aircraft shotgun used by the standard DINN. Several AWACS DINN units were used to locate the rogue battleship Archangel after ZAFT initiated Operation Angel Down.
