TER-20A Knight (Conflicted Hearts)

The TER-20A Knight was an limited-production Mobile Suit made by Terminal and is the Terminal equivalent to the ZGMF-515 CGUE, acting as a specialized Mobile Suit unit for Commanders, one custom unit was piloted by Takeo Yamato.

Design Features
Unlike other Mobile Suits, the Knight differs from the status quo due to it's Medieval European Motif and its armor, the only part still resembling an original Mobile Suit being the head. Another thing about the Knight is its size, which is a bit taller than an average Mobile Suit but is shorter than any Mobile Armor produced in Gundam Seed: Destiny.

The unit is usually a close combat unit armed with a sword and shield but sometimes uses its Lance for greater attack power.

Operational History
The Knight was designed by the WIZARD division, to function as Terminal’s main MS for it’s Commanders, though they were often passed over for custom one-of-a-kind MS created by the different R&D divisions. Mainly due the fact that looked like it was only suited for close range combat and was model to resemblance a knight in armor. But any and all doubts about its usefulness were later proved false when Takeo Yamato ask specifically for one to pilot after rising to the Rank of Commander.

The Wizards gave the task of building and customizing it to his younger sister/cousin as her entrance exam to join the WIZARD Division. A test latter showed how effective and powerful the suit truly, showcasing Takeo’s amazing piloting skills and Kira’s incredible engineer abilities. Shortly after, Takeo received the nickname the Holy Knight for his unshakable beliefs and virtues. His Command symbol later earned him the nickname the Noble Tiger in reference to the symbol of a tiger on his Knight right shoulder.
