Quatre Raberba Winner activated the self-destruct system on his XXXG-01SR Gundam Sandrock during his escape into space, and the ensuing explosion rendered the mobile suit useless – but its Gundanium alloy body was still more or less intact. The Sandrock’s remains were confiscated by OZ, but were later retrieved by members of his Maganac Corps allies and taken to their underground base in the Middle East, where it was rebuilt and fully restored. After Quatre’s return to Earth, he returned to the Maganacs to pilot his Gundam once again. But the military and political strife plaguing the Earth Sphere in AC 195 reached a decisive conclusion in space, and Quatre returned to space with his Sandrock to join the battle. Aboard the independent battleship Peacemillion, Gundam supporter Howard upgraded the mobile suit, giving it minor improvements for space combat. Though the changes made to the Gundam Sandrock Custom were cosmetically minor, they gave the mobile suit the edge it needed to use its abilities against the space-bound forces of White Fang’s WF-02MD Virgo II mobile dolls and the mobile suits of the World Nation military. The addition of several vernier thrusters made the Sandrock stable to operate in a zero-gee environment, and the permanent addition of a small beam submachine gun gave it more extensive ranged firepower. Over Quatre’s protests, Gundam pilot Heero Yuy also temporarily outfitted the Sandrock with a component of the XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero‘s infamous Zero System, allowing Quatre to coordinate the Peacemillion‘s mobile suit forces in a major assault against White Fang’s mobile dolls. Following the defeat of the Mariemaia Army in AC 196, Quatre joined the other Gundam pilots in self-destructing his own suit after its mission was fulfilled.
