Silhouettes Equipped with Shoulder-Mounted Howitzers

 

「The core of the defense will rely on our existing forces. For the operational units, we’ll assign Silhouettes tailored to their missions. The real advantage of the MCS is that it doesn’t require retraining for different models.」

Barry began his analysis of Trireme’s combat strength.

「The new mass-production machines should be ready in time. Trireme will have them across the board. We’ll probably focus on modifying the high-performance units already in service.」

Even if they weren’t designed from scratch, there was too little time to develop new high-performance weapons outright.

「Fortunately, we were already running trials for the next-generation main unit.」

The new Metal Iris mass-production Silhouettes were already entering factory lines across the main Fortress Areas. On Planet Asia, the condition for adopting a mass-production unit was compatibility with existing Worker production facilities. That meant no adoption of cutting-edge materials.

「Starting entirely from zero won’t cut it! We’ve already done the research on the
