RG 1/144 XXXG-01W Wing Gundam EW

The XXXG-01W Wing Gundam (aka Gundam 01, Wing Gundam [Early Type] or Wing Gundam [Ver.Ka.]) is the titular mobile suit of the manga Mobile Suit Gundam Wing Endless Waltz: Glory of the Losers. It was primarily piloted by Heero Yuy.

Out of the five original Gundams created for Operation Meteor, Wing Gundam is the most well-balanced in terms of abilities and bears the closest resemblance to their common ancestor: the XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Proto Zero. Like its predecessor, the Wing Gundam can transform into an alternate flight form known as "Bird Mode" and has a powerful Buster Rifle as part of its armaments. However, the "ZERO System" interface (which had technical problems) and other parts considered to be excessive were not included, and the skills of the pilot are needed to make up for the shortfall.

The major contributor to Wing's mobility is the pair of wing units on the backpack. These units not only generate lift, but can also change the aerodynamic characteristics of the mobile suit through the movements of their individual panels, supporting a range of speeds from stall to hypersonic. Even in outer space, the wing units exhibit high attitude control capability using both AMBAC and built-in vernier thrusters. By transforming into Bird Mode, Wing Gundam's mobility and movement range are increased further, allowing it to conduct operations that other Gundams could not.
