Heero Yuy operates the most powerful of the five Gundams sent to Earth in the wake of Project Meteor. Of the five original Gundams, the Wing Gundam is the only Gundam capable of atmospheric flight, making it perhaps the most versatile and well-balanced Gundam as well. Heavily equipped for combat, the Wing Gundam is armed with a Buster Rifle and two formidable Beam Sabers that can slice through an enemy mobile suit with ease. But the Wing Gundam's firepower doesn't end there. This Gundam is also outfitted with two 40 mm Machine Cannons, two 20 mm head Vulcan guns, and a large shield for toe-to-toe battle. When the Wing Gundam transforms for flight (also called Bird Mode), the Buster Rifle serves as a nose cannon and the shield becomes the Gundam's "head." The Wing Gundam is truly an awesome example of mecha might.
