Cordelia stood in the command room of a converted asteroid alongside numerous research teams, watching the tests of the TR Series Gundams on the screen.
Long Fei sat in the command chair. He had made a number of modifications and enhancements to every unit in the TR Series.
The Advanced TR-1 Gundam Hazel, the TR-1 Gundam Hazel II, the TR Gundam Hazler, TR-2 Big-W, and TR-3 Gihal.
The first three served as combat Gundams, while TR-2 Big-W was long-range sniper support equipment intended for testing units.
TR-3 Gihal was testing its flight mode and autopilot functions.
Besides testing the speed of its thrusters, the Advanced TR-1 Gundam Hazel was also testing newly manufactured sensors to determine whether it possessed long-range firing capabilities. This would allow the unit to handle rear support missions in addition to raids and interception duties.
The TR-1 Gundam Hazel II was testing its signal transmission and reception capabilities, as well as the triple-thruster module of the large rear-mounted thrusters. The triple-thruster module provided immense propulsion.
The pilot tested the powerful G-forces generated by the TR-1 Gundam Hazel II's speed.
The command room staff monitored the pilot's physical condition. The intense G-forces would have been enough to overwhelm and knock out an ordinary pilot, but this pilot was a soldier who had undergone physical enhancement. Combined with the pressure-resistant functions of the Sparta Battle Suit, the powerful G-forces had no adverse effects on him.
However, the excessive length of the Storm Thruster, which also served as a fuel tank, altered the moment of force. The pilot complained that it prevented flexible turning maneuvers.
The TR Gundam Hazler was tested alongside the independent support flight unit, the FF-X29A G Unit "Fwddod." Long Fei had modified this Gundam so it could change equipment configurations during battle.
After testing its
