Akatsuki Command Model Zikisan

The squadron leaders in the Black Knights pilot an Akatsuki variant called Akatsuki Command Model Jikisanshiyō (暁　直参仕様), which bears a much closer resemblance to the Gekka than the standard Akatsuki. While Chiba Nagisa, Shōgo Asahina, and other standard squardron leaders pilot dark blue versions, C.C. pilots a custom-painted pink model.

It is equipped with similar weaponry than the standard Akatsuki, but carries the full-sized Katen Yaibatou instead of the scaled-down baton version. It also uses the Radiation Wave technology on a shield unit mounted in the head antennas. Among its optional weapons, the 2-barrel Hand Gun and the Radiation Wave missiles are the most common sight. They may also make use an optional Air Glide Wing unit, consequentially changing the machine designation for Type-05S/F2F Akatsuki Command Model Jikisanshiyō Flight-Enabled Version.
