Mobile Suit Gundam SEED (2002)

S01E40 Into the Dawn Skies

The Earth Alliance launches another assault, yet the outcome mirrors the last clash. The Archangel and Orb's vessel, the Kusanagi, break through into space, leaving Orb's leadership behind on the surface. In a final act of defiance, they destroy the mass driver and weapons factories—giving their lives to ensure the escape succeeds.
