The Deathscythe, the second of
              the five Gundams dispatched to
              Earth as part of Operation
              Meteor, was created by the
              scavenger organization known
              as the Sweeper Group. It was
              developed by the Sweeper
              Group's Professor G, an expert
              in stealth technology. Thanks to
              the hyper jammers on its
              backpack, the Gundam
              Deathscythe can scramble
              enemy radar and visual sensors,
              remaining invisible to its foes
              until the moment it strikes them
              down. Its high speed makes this
              Gundam ideal for such
              hit-and-run tactics, and pilot
              Duo Maxwell exploits this
              capability to the hilt.

              The Deathscythe's primary
              weapon is its lethal beam
              scythe, supplemented by the
              standard vulcans and machine
              cannons. The Gundam's buster
              shield also functions as a
              weapon, equipped with sharp
              pincers and a central beam
              blade; the shield can even be
              launched at enemy mobile suits,
              to deliver its killing blow at a
              distance.
