Editing Duel Gundam (section)

==='''COMBAT AND TECHNOLOGICAL INFORMATION'''===

The armament of the Duel is rather simple and consists of two head-mounted "Igelstellung'"75mm multi-barrel CIWS guns, which would later become standard weaponry on most suits to shoot down incoming missiles and close enemy units. For close combat, the suit features two beam sabers, which are usually mounted behind the shoulders of the suit. For ranged combat the Duel also uses a 57mm high-energy beam rifle with an attached 175mm grenade launcher. For defense the suit mounts a single physical shield.

Duel also has a bazooka as an optional weapon, loaded with high-explosive round. The bazooka was taken and used by MBF-P01 Gundam Astray Gold Frame to escape from Heliopolis.

After being stolen by ZAFT and damaged in battle, the suit is upgraded with the so-called Assault Shroud armor, which fits several armor plates over the body that can be ejected if necessary. The armor also adds an additional "Shiva" 115mm railgun on the right shoulder and a 220 mm 5-barrel missile pod on the left shoulder for additional firepower.

As with the other suits developed under the G Project, the Duel was equipped with the new Phase Shift armor, making it nearly impervious to shell firing weapons.
