The Akatsuki Command Model (暁直参仕様, Akatsuki Jikisan Shiyō) is a variant piloted by the squadron leaders in the Black Knights. It bears a much closer resemblance to the Gekka than the standard Akatsuki Mass Production Model. Nagisa Chiba, Shōgo Asahina, and other squadron leaders pilot dark blue versions. C.C. pilots a pink version of this unit.
