Outpost Battle

On May 3, Cosmic Year 125, battle broke out along the outer edge of Location 3 Boundary.

This was the first day, the opening battle between the Skywing Mercenary Group and the Dion Army.

The forces engaged on both sides were brigade-level fleets.

The Dion Army's 3rd Brigade Fleet of the 5th Corps under the 3rd Decisive Battle Army Group fought the 1st Brigade Fleet of the 9th Annihilation Corps of the Skywing Mercenary Group.

Journalists from international media outlets conducted live remote broadcasts from different directions.

Both fleets fired beams and missile barrages while deploying their respective MS and Mobile Armors.

The journalists filmed both sides deploying common MS and Mobile Armors, but the Skywing Mercenary Group also sent out Taurus and Birgo II units.

The Taurus and Birgo II units were carried by Leo transport ships, each capable of carrying sixteen units.

The Leo transport ships were controlled by Haro.

There were 1,600 Taurus and 1,600 Birgo II units deployed.

Although the battlefield was saturated with Minov Particles, the Taurus and Birgo II units relied on superconducting networks, Quantum Communication, and other systems, remaining completely unaffected and performing at their usual level.

The Dion Army relied on Anti-Minov Particle Devices to allow unmanned Scorpions, Wingbirds, Koukai, and Salamanders to fight within the effective range of the devices.

Ordinary humans and people from former colony regions of the Dion Empire, who were relatively more capable, piloted Azure Saint Machines and Salamanders, while the others piloted Scorpions, Wingbirds, and Koukai.

Their only Mobile Armor was the Howling Moon Demon Wolf.

The Skywing Mercenary Group fielded MD Taurus, Birgo II, Jegans, Murasames, Jestas, Richers, and Mass-Produced Gundams, with Delta Plus and Mk III units making up the majority, while Delta and Full Armor Mk III units were fewer in number.
