Technical and Historical Notes
In the post-war era, ZAFT begins to develop its next generation of mobile suits. One such design is the ZGMF-XX09T DOM Trooper Original Spec Type, a prototype design that never makes it to full production. Instead, the DOM (Defensive Obliterator Magnificent) Trooper's production line is acquired by Terminal, an organization connected to the Three Ships Alliance. Terminal performs several upgrades to the original design. The Knight Wizard pack is dropped and replaced with an EZ Wizard pack to mount a beam saber. The original Giga-Launcher is upgraded to double as a shell-firing weapon and beam cannon. The shield and drill lance are dropped in favor of "Solidus Fulgor" beam shield generators used by ZAFT's latest model mobile suits ZGMF-X42S Destiny Gundam and ZGMF-X666S Legend Gundam. Finally, the new DOM Trooper is equipped with a chest-mounted scattering beam gun that emits a cloud of beam particles similar the energy from a beam rifle blast.
Terminal's version of the DOM Trooper is first deployed in C.E. 74 during ZAFT's attack on the Orb Union, codenamed Operation Fury. Piloted by three former ZAFT pilots, the DOM Troopers make an impressive show of force against the ZAFT forces with their coordinated "Jet Stream Attack." When the battle moves to space, the DOM Troopers participate in the battle to capture the Requiem cannon from ZAFT. During the battle, lead pilot Hilda Harken's unit is damaged in combat. Soon after, the death of ZAFT Supreme Council Chairman Gilbert Durandal and the destruction of the mobile space fortress Messiah mark the end of the war.
