And then just recently I get to stick my foot in my mouth. I did some digging and just today Gunota posts some new info found from a questionable source but one that has paid off as well check it out.
--------------------------
Plamoya-san's Useless Diary lists additional armaments taken from the 1/144 Collection Series Strike Freedom description:
Official name: EQFU-3X Super DRAGOON mobile weapon wings
Armament: MA08V Beam Assault Cannon x 1
Note: The model number given for the DRAGOON is similar to the Chaos Gundam's EQFU-5X mobile weapon pods.
I'll also add that this same site is known amongst rumormongers for breaking news about the Super Freedom->Strike Freedom name change a few days before it was announced on the official site.
------------------------
And yep for us rumormongers this place was one if not the first to break the Strike Freedom news. So damn Strike Freedom will have its wings as weapon pods. SWEET. This definately puts it a peg above Freedom in terms of power now. And also puts Kira's greater spatial awareness into play.
EDIT: As for Girty Lue. I suspect she is in space still or at an EA Base waiting to go back into space.
