Rosette Reinforced Ground Type and RX-107 TR-4 Dandelion
The Aerosk Mining Site was rich in a mineral called Rarium Silver Metal. It was a core component in the engines of most Special Saint Machines, as well as an alloy material needed for weapon parts and frame joints.
The Rarium Silver extracted from the Aerosk Mining Site supplied 40 percent of the Dion Empire's raw materials, making it an extremely important mining site.
The Black Rabbit Unit was tasked with attacking the Aerosk Mining Site.
Part of the transport force at the Aerosk Mining Site was secretly shipping Rarium Silver Metal ore out.
Numerous trucks and aircraft, laden with Rarium Silver, headed in four directions. Their purpose was to deliver it to Emasina Base, important armories, or refineries.
The Black Rabbit Unit dispatched several forces to intercept them. Squads composed of Gundam TR-1 Hazel-Rah, Achima, and Gihal were responsible for intercepting transport forces headed farther away.
The transport forces all had accompanying escort squads for protection.
At present, the Aerosk Mining Site was one of the few relatively intact facilities left. In truth, its defenses against attacks from outer space were quite weak.
The main reason it had not been bombed was Salamander's recommendation.
Rarium Silver was useful not only to the Dion Empire, but also greatly valuable to the Skywing Mercenary Group.
Rarium Silver could likewise serve as a core joint component for Special and Mass-produced Gundams. Even a small amount could prevent many alloy frames from suffering metal fatigue.
Seizing the Aerosk Mining Site through ground suppression would at least avoid causing severe damage to it. The mining machines and logistics troops could then begin excavating there immediately.
Otherwise, if the Aerosk Mining Site suffered serious damage, manpower and time would have to be spent rebuilding it.
