Strike N-Custom

The GAT-X105N+P202QX Strike GUNDAM N-Custom +IWSP is a custom-modified variation of the original GAT-X105 Strike equipped with the Integrated Weapons Striker Pack. The unit is piloted by Durandal Cyber-Pilot Axl.

Appearance
In terms of appearance, the unit is no different from a standard issue GAT-X105 Strike equipped with a P202QX Integrated Weapons Striker Pack while the PS Armor is active. Overall, however, the unit received a major overhaul in order to compete with more modern Mobile Suit designs. The main visible changes appear to be a clear swap-out of the thrusters mounted on the Striker Pack hardpoint and legs for more powerful and energy-efficient models.

Weaponry
In terms of weaponry, the GAT-X105N+P202QX is armed very similarly to its predecesor, the original Strike, though with a more advanced beam rifle (developed by ZAFT for its Second Stage Series mobile suit, the Impulse), and increase to the overall firepower of the CIWS, and the basic araments included with the IWSP.

MA-BAR72 High-energy Beam Rifle: The main long-range weapon abord the Strike N.  Originally used primarily on the ZGMF-X56S Impulse, this weapon, when not in use, is stored on the upper right leg, just below the Mobile Suit's skirt armor.

"Harpuia" 75mm tri-barrel CIWS: The close-range projectile weaponry, two of these modified tri-barrel CIWS units are mounted in the Strike N's head. While firepower has received an overal increase, these weapons are still relegated primarily to missile interception and dealing with small-scale enemies such as tanks and armored jeeps.

"Armoor Schneider" Combat Knife: Stored in the hips of the Strike N, these folding battle knives do not need any power from the mobile suit and can be thrown. They are highly effective against the joints and under-armored sections of most any mobile suit.

115mm Railgun: Mounted above the Mobile Suit's shoulders are a pair of 115mm Railguns. These are powerful weapons that use electromagnetism and sliding bars to rapidly accelerate solid projectiles. Barrel-mounted sensors allow for precise targetting and firing at any range.

9.1m Anti-ship Swords: Developed from data collected from the Sword Striker Pack's "Schwert Gewehr" 15.78m anti-ship sword, these solid blades are shorter than the "Schwert Gewehr" and do not posses beam blade emitters. They make up for it with two being mounted with the addition of the IWSP. If the pilot requires a beam blade, however, the Combo Shield's beam boomerang is within easy reach.

Combined Shield: A solid shield that mounts a 6-barrel gatling and a Flash-Edge beam boomerang.
 * 30mm 6-barrel rail-gatling: A modification of the Combined Shield's original 6-barrel gatling gun, the addition of coiled magnetic accelerators into each barrel drastically improved its hitting power and range without sacrificing rate of fire.
 * RQM60 "Flash-Edge" Beam Boomerang: As another weapon trade-off, the combined shield now mounts a single "Flash-Edge" beam boomerang instead of the "Midas Messer" traditionally equipped to the Combo Shield to provide added ranged combat capabilities.
