Actually, Iron Nest Base was limited not only in personnel, but also in technical capability.

Still, there shouldn't be any major problems!
Although the fight against those Mechanical Clan units had left it looking pretty battered, most of the damage wasn't structural. They just needed to reconnect the damaged parts, patch up the armor, or even replace it with the spare armor in Kira's mobile suit backpack. That should be enough.
