During a contract job, the MBF-P03 Gundam Astray Blue Frame was heavily damaged in combat with Eleven Socius’ GAT-01D Long Dagger. Afterward, Gai Murakumo upgraded the unit to the Blue Frame Second L with some assistance from MBF-P02 Gundam Astray Red Frame pilot Lowe Guele. Lowe’s contribution was the detachable Tactical Arms backpack, which was capable of separate flight and came equipped with a 90mm Gatling gun. The Tactical Arms could also be reconfigured for use as an oversized blade. Additionally, the Blue Frame Second’s feet were remodeled and featured hidden toe and heel knife blades, which also doubled as anchoring spikes. Also, Phase Shift armor was added to the area surrounding the cockpit by Orb Union mobile suit engineer Erica Simmons. The head was also remodeled to include remote control equipment. This enhanced version was known as the Blue Frame Second L (the “L” denoting Lowe), but Gai also made another alternate configuration: the Blue Frame Second G.
