The GAT-04+Mk438/B Multi-Striker Windam was an optional configuration of the Earth Alliance’s GAT-04 Windam mass production mobile suit. The large Multi-Striker pack could be outfitted with a variety of weapons, including a pair of Mk-5 nuclear missiles. Following the Break the World incident in C.E. 73, the Earth Alliance declares war on the PLANTs and launches a retaliatory strike involving many nuclear-armed Multi-Striker Windams. However, ZAFT deployed a Nazca class ship specially equipped with a “Neutron Stampeder” which irradiated the area and caused all the nuclear missiles to detonate prematurely before they could strike the PLANTs.
