Kapitel 193: Chapter 193 Smooth Sailing

Initial testing was going far better than anyone had hoped, thanks to the in-depth analysis of the design teams and the modular nature of the design process. In only two weeks, functional testing on the X109 had finished.

That meant that the X104, its predecessor that had been designed without the rapid movement thruster pack, was able to be brought back to the testing lab, and rebuilt with all the upgrades that the X109 had received. 

The X104 was a direct replacement for the Redemption Pattern Crusader Class mecha. Standing fifteen meters tall, it was on par with the height of the Cygnus Reaver pattern Heavy Mecha but lighter and more graceful. This was why it was initially scrapped as the Main Force Mecha; the reductions implemented to reduce material cost made it too fragile for the rigours of combat, at least in the eyes of Command.
