Prior to the start of the Second Bloody Valentine War in C.E. 73, ZAFT introduced the New Millennium series mobile suits, starting with the ZGMF-1000 ZAKU Warrior. The next mobile suit in the series was the ZGMF-2000 GOUF Ignited. The production GOUF’s armament was identical to that of the prototype version, the ZGMF-X2000. A GOUF Ignited was stolen by Athrun Zala and Meyrin Hawke during their escape from ZAFT’s Gibraltar Base, but they were shot down over the ocean by Shinn Asuka’s ZGMF-X42S Destiny Gundam. A white-colored unit was used in space by ZAFT ace pilot Yzak Joule. Yzak’s unit participated in the battle to destroy the doomsday Requiem cannon, located at the Earth Alliance’s Daedalus lunar base.
