Energy Wing System

The Energy Wing System (エネルギーウィングシステム, Enerugī Uingu Shisutemu) was developed by the Camelot Research Group using data gathered from the captured Guren Flight-Enabled Version as the basis for development. When the Energy Wing System was completed, the result was the creation of the first Ninth-Generation Knightmare Frame: the Guren S.E.I.T.E.N. Eight Elements.

Although the Guren S.E.I.T.E.N. Eight Elements was retrieved by Kallen Kōzuki and the Order of the Black Knights, the Camelot Research Group would go on to incorporate the Energy Wing System into their own Knightmare Frame, the Lancelot Albion. Even though both Knightmare Frames would later be destroyed in combat, the Energy Wing System has been shown to be included in subsequent Knightmare Frames such as the Guren Type Special and the Lancelot siN.

Design and Development
The Energy Wing System is an improvement of the Air Glide System that was first developed by Rakshata Chawla of the Research and Development Division of the Black Knights.

The theory of the Energy Wing System is based upon oscillating Blaze Luminous wings from the base of the Knightmare Frame, thereby allowing for ultra high-speed movement to be achieved.

The Energy Wing System, when activated, features a characteristic rippling effect that causes the air around the Knightmare Frame to create a ring of light that mimics the color of the energy wings.

Performance
The Energy Wing System performs exponentially well in combat, enabling the user to maneuver flawlessly at high speeds while destroying multiple enemies in a short amount of time, drastically altering the course of most battles in their favor. At the debut of the first Ninth-Generation Frame, the Guren S.E.I.T.E.N. Eight Elements displayed the ability to perform several high-speed maneuvers in a matter of seconds during the Second Battle of the Tokyo Settlement, destroying the Valkyrie Squadron in an instant and even defeating Luciano Bradley (a member of the Knights of the Round) with relative ease.

Alternatively, the Lancelot Albion showcased the ability to fire crystalline, energy-based projectiles from its Energy Wings, dispatching the Knights of the Round along with their personal forces during the Uprising and later defending against several members of the Order of the Black Knights and even the Shen Hu and Zangetsu, piloted by Li Xingke and Kyoshiro Tohdoh respectively. During the Uprising, the Albion displayed the ability to produce clear afterimages of itself through the Energy Wings, this being used by Suzaku Kururugi to confuse Bismarck Waldstein.
