History
The AGE-2 Double Blade was operated by Asemu Asuno, who became the team leader of a special forces unit. It saw combat against a prototype Vagan mobile suit during a test flight near a certain port city on Earth. This also makes it one of the few wear packs that experience combat while still in testing phase.
