The Gekko

The Gekko.

The SL-1200 MkII Gekko (月光号 Gekkou-gou) is Gekkostate's ship.

Eureka Seven

It is a unique prototype ship, stolen by Holland and the other members of Gekkostate during their mutiny. It was a military spec-ops ship capable of storing and launching numorous LFOs. It is heavily armed, with many anti-air missiles stored in its hull, along with 6 large laser cannons separated into two turrets on the underside of its fuselage. It is capable of achieving escape velocity and entering low-orbit around Earth, the extent of this ability is unknown, as they do not specify how long it can maintain this state. It is equipped to accommodate numerous crew members, and has large refrigerators for food, and its own medical bay. It houses a unique trapar scanning device, known as the Compac Interferencer, which allows it to detect disturbances in the trapar and cloak its own signal from other ships.

Eureka Seven: AO

After the events of the series, the Gekko was decommissioned. Later, it would be used by Eureka and Renton to investigate the disappearance of Scub Corals, when it and Eureka (in a Nirvash Mk. II) would get caught up in such a disappearance.

The coral appears just outside the atmosphere of another Earth, with Eureka (six months pregant) and the Gekko deep inside. Generation Bleu is sent to retrieve the coral's quartz, but the coral is forced into the atmosphere, along with Ao, Eureka's son who was left when Eureka would later come to that Earth 13 years in the past. Eureka contacts Ao and tells him to use the Gekko as a foothold to shield themselves from atmospheric friction. The Gekko lands safely in the ocean.[1]

Shortly afterwards, several forces converge on the Gekko, intent on claiming it and Eureka for themselves.

After a series of fights both inside and outside by the forces, Ao, Eureka and Truth, the Gekko is finally sunk in the ocean by Generation Bleu in order to avoid anybody to keep it.
