It took a full month before they accepted their circumstances.
By then, the technical teams from 0079 Anaheim and the fleet's L.A.I had long since been integrated and begun work. However, since the members of the SEED World technical team were still coming to terms with the fact that they had crossed worlds, the first project was to completely finish the VF-30.
The test unit underwent repeated testing. After identifying and correcting its flaws through live-combat trials, the final version was produced. However, due to future mass production and full equipment configurations, the VF-30 ultimately developed into two variants. The first had four engines, with every unit equipped with a Micro-quantized MACROSS Cannon, built entirely from Third Generation Gundanium Alloy, and fitted with GN Dragoons. This complete
