Biology

Sahaquiel is a giant being even compared to the other Angels: the radius of the "iris" of its central eye alone is roughly equal to the height of an Evangelion. The Angel appears in Earth's orbit over the Indian Ocean. Sahaquiel has a vaguely amoeba-like shape: the middle section of Sahaquiel is shaped like a giant eye, which connects to two smaller subsections. Black "eyelash" lines extend from the central eye to form three small pseudopod extensions on either side (six in all) from the central section. From each of the two subsections branch off three large pseudopods extendng outwards, and two smaller stubby pseudopods facing back towards the central eye. Its "pupil" is orange, its iris is green, and the rest of its "eye" is yellow, while the rest of its body is orange.

Sahaquiel is a living bomb with the unique ability to drop off pieces of itself. Each piece has an A.T. Field, which added to the very high kinetic energy of being dropped out of orbit, cause massive damage on the ground. Sahaquiel is capable of learning and calibrating its aim based on pieces it drops, which culminate once it has honed its aim in a massive kamikaze attack by diving toward its target.

Battle

After appearing in high earth orbit, the Angel is initially attacked by over a dozen N² Mine, but to absolutely no effect. Two reconaissance satellites are sent to scan it, but are crushed by the angel's offensive AT field deployment. Sahaquiel proceeds by dropping parts of its elongated body and dropping them onto the earth. Each subsequent part lands closer and closer to the Geofront's location as it refines it's aim, before finally the entire Angel descends with enough force to destroy all of Tokyo-3 and penetrate the Geofront.

Misato's plan to stop the Angel has a very slim chance of success, so all the civilian population of Tokyo-3 evacuates along with the Geofront's non-essential personnel. The three Evangelions are deployed at different points to cover as much as possible of the area in which Sahaquiel may land, with orders to "catch" the Angel with their AT-fields before destroying it.

Eva-01 reaches the Angel first, almost halting the Angel with it's AT field alone. Eva-00 and Eva-02 arrive shortly afterwards, opening a hole in the Angel's AT field and penetrating it's core respectively, killing the Angel. Although all three Evangelions were at ground zero of the subsequent explosion, the pilots were unharmed.

Notes

Sahaqiel is fittingly named for the Archangel of the Sky, considering its expansive size and its appearance in orbit. The name "Sahaquiel" means "Ingenuity of God," which is perfectly fitting considering the Angel's unique abilities: It is the first Angel to use it's AT field as an offense, both to destroy scanning satellites and to enhance the destructive power of its "bombs". It is also capable of jamming satellite communications and tracking systems, hindering Nerv's efforts to contact Gendo Ikari or track the Angel down.
