The STTS-909 Rising Freedom Gundam is a mobile suit introduced in the animated film Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Freedom.

Using all previous operational data from the ZGMF-X20A Strike Freedom Gundam, the unit was designed incorporating transformation technology acquired by Orb through the MVF-M11C Murasame. Also, its weapons are developed and manufactured from PLANT, and latest technologies from various countries and organizations are used to develop this unit. It shares a frame with the STTS-808 Immortal Justice Gundam, as well as containing the same panoramic monitor cockpit and operating system. This state-of-the-art mobile suit is also remarkable in that it is even more compact in size than previous Freedom variants. Its equipment mainly consists of long-distance combat armament, with Variable Phase Shift (VPS) Armor that can neutralize physical ammunition. With its common frame as a base, equipment may be changed depending on usage needs, making this a multi-role unit capable of utilizing numerous variations.

Unlike its predecessors, the Rising Freedom Gundam is battery-powered, necessitating the use of various measures to conserve power for its energy-intensive loadout. A planned upgrade was meant to combat the weaknesses of the Rising Freedom being battery-powered with the MDE262S Proud Defender, which would have greatly increased its combat abilities, but the Proud Defender was not completed in time due to development delays, and after the untimely destruction of the Rising Freedom the planned upgrade was re-adjusted for the secretly renovated ZGMF/A-262B Strike Freedom Gundam Type II.
