Evangelion Mark.09 is a new Eva unit appearing in Evangelion 3.0: You Can (Not) Redo and piloted by a clone of Rei Ayanami. It is affiliated with Nerv.

Profile

Mark.09's configuration largely resembles Eva-00, although the helmet has no separate jaw piece. The Eva is capable of functioning after its head is destroyed by Eva-08, and left in this decapitated state for subsequent sorties. It may be based on one of the Adams (pending confirmation).

Operational History

Mark.09's first observed sortie is an unsolicited boarding of Wille's flagship, AAA Wunder, to retrieve Shinji Ikari for a future Nerv operation. It loses its head during this skirmish, but is otherwise successful. The mission is accomplished using equipment attached to the Eva's back comprised of ribbon-like projections which can form into a highly elongated rocket booster.

The Eva later reappears in its headless form, armed with a scythe-like weapon. It is ultimately destroyed by Eva-02 using self-destruct.
