The Bandai HGCE #232 GAT-04+AQM/E-A4E1 Jet Windam is a 1/144 scale model kit from the anime series Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny. This kit represents the Earth Alliance's primary mass-produced mobile suit equipped with the AQM/E-A4E1 Jet Striker, a Striker Pack that grants atmospheric flight capability and additional missile armaments. As an HG-grade snap-fit kit utilizing Bandai's Fine Build joint structure, it is well suited for beginner to intermediate builders and requires no painting or glue for assembly. The Jet Windam is the very first model kit iteration of the Windam unit and was originally released in May 2020.
