The GAT-X133 Sword Calamity Gundam is a modified version of the second GAT-X series' GAT-X131 Calamity Gundam under the “Rebuild 1416 Program", The “Rebuild 1416 Program" is a project to create versatile units based on the Calamity Gundam. The concept is similar to the striker pack system developed for the GAT-X105 Strike Gundam.
The main modification for this unit is all weapons, excluding the 580mm multi-phase energy cannon “Scylla," have been changed to melee weapons. Most of the weapons used are based on weapons for Sword Strike Gundam. To support the changes made to machine equipment, the FCS and Vetronics have been adjusted and the unit is installed with an OS for Naturals. Due to the change in unit weight, mobility and maneuverability have been improved too.
Units 1-3 were manufactured, making a total of three units. Unit 1 was initially manufactured as Calamity Gundam but was later converted to Sword Calamity Gundam, which is why Unit 1 is colored in green. Unit 2 and Unit 3 participated in the Third Victoria Offensive. Unit 1 and Unit 2 engaged in combat during the South American Independence War, resulting in heavy damage for both units. Both units were recovered and repaired by Kaite Madigan afterwards.
