Kidou Senshi Gundam: Seed Destiny/Blast Impulse

Blast Impulse Gundam
Pilot	Shinn Asuka
Archetype	Keepaway/Zoner

Introduction

The ZGMF-X56S/γ Blast Impulse Gundam is the ZGMF-X56S Impulse Gundam equipped with the γ Blast Silhouette pack and is designed for long-range heavy assault and bombardment missions. As such, the Blast Silhouette pack is equipped with powerful range weapons in the form of two beam cannons, two rail cannons and a pair of missiles launchers.

The best way to describe blast-impulse is the ryu of the long-ranged Gundams. Very very basic and doesn't really excel at anything but he doesnt quite suck either. He's just exactly what he's advertised as and nothing more.
