I mean, the point of the side note about the Zirvitium was that the Free Brothers could sell it to the Westphalians. It's not our homegrown tech and we already know that the Free Brothers and the Westphalians collaborate, so if the Free Brothers do share it we have zero compunctions over proliferating it in our group.

It's also pretty expensive to make so even then it'd be reserved solely for elite units or as mecha swat shields. No one else has elites yet and more of it being made means the Westphalians can just jack it from non-West places to trade more stock to Sheol who'd armor his Kaiju against the blaster weapons that are actually effective against them.
Giving the better tech to people need them to actually be good enough to defend it from being Gundamjacked in the first place.

I actually don't think the leader of the Free Brothers is going to authorize selling the armor to his ertzwhile allies. At some point he's going to betray them due to reaching his goals whatever they are. So if they have Zirvitium that means that they have a decent defense against him and could probably fight back instead of just dying like he probably wants them to do.
Mind you the other two factions are probably going to betray him and each other too at some point since at least two of them want world domination, sooner or later they will start fighting. because after all two different groups can't control a world together. so at some point they will betray each other and the free brothers in an attempt to seize the planet for themselves.
the only thing keeping them working together is the Super Robots and their organizations. Mercery V with the Yukimura institute. Erika and the Victory, Beowulf, Perseus, and Thunderbolt for the DFRI. Ichiro too but he's not a Super Robot just yet. and then there is the smaller programs that are spinning up to build their own Super Robots now that the DFRI has been so successful at building and designing them and the support units that work with them.
on the other side is the three primary Super Robots that began the entire thing followed up by perseus and thunderbolt as well as whatever the machine is that Ground Pound is building, are all Elite units. And then there is the Enclave. Galbinus is an Elite since he leads the group. not sure about Cavalier though.

That's no longer true. The Leader of the Free Brothers and maybe patch are Elite level. That strange woman that works for Sheol is most definitely an Elite agent of his with the modifications to prove it. Then there's the Bruces and whoever it is that is designing and building the Westphalian tech base for them.

I meant the UEDF outside of us as a whole doesn't have elites that can defend the tech in the first place. It'll take months to get them to the level that we're at and only when they have that should we give them the means to manufacture it on their own bases. At the very least we should wait to see what the Gtound Pound pilots can do before going from there.
Of the allies, the Legion already have Zirvitium and Mercury had its own wonder metal so giving it to Valiant would be the smartest choice once we can trust them more.

At a minimum, I expect them to be on par with Jackal Pilot Tellison from the Warlord fight to start out, and he did alright. Not good enough to solo the Warlord, admittedly, but that was probably more due to inferior tech than his skill. He was also able to give Cav a decent match in a normal Jackal, even if he still lost (not a mark of shame against a guy who fought in cage matches as a hobby and was physically stronger on top of that).
Remember how things have gone for us: Every named ally is either an advisor or a pilot waiting for a Super Robot. If Ground Pound's pilots can take the Fulgur nightmares, there's no way they're not named characters, and if they're being tapped as pilots they're obviously not advisors.

Smith Files #1 - Impact of the DFRI on the Defense Forces
- Location
- USA
QM Note: the turn post will probably come tomorrow or so. But I couldn't get this out of my head, so have a new run of side stories from a certain Intelligence agent.
File 1: Impact of the DFRI on the Defense Forces
-s this thing on? It is! Perfect, perfect, let's get started.
Anna Smith. Last quadrant fragment of IDENT code - ICA-WA-47.
With authentication finished, let me get this out of the way for anyone reviewing this in future - I began serving as liaison to Major Johnathan Devin and the Defense Force Research Institute (DFRI to stop future tongue twisters) on 6 February, A.D. 2071 following biometric confirmation of Codename: Warlord's death. (Not that any of us expects that to stick, someone else is going to think they've got the chops to be the next one, but we haven't seen anyone like that yet.) But following dissatisfaction with Executive Board members of the Third Air Defense Force's security of DFRI assets, and on request from Brigadier General Peters, Intelligence Services assets keep a much closer eye on things here now.
I'll have more to say about a certain General Armistead later, as his situation isn't quite as clearcut as it seems on the surface.
These files are meant to be a running analysis and stream of consciousness from yours truly on request from Director Ashwood. The topic in question today is the impact the DFRI is having on the wider Defense Forces as a whole. The short answer is: a pretty big one, but that doesn't exactly help analyses in the future, so let me start from the top.
Discounting all of the core Super Robot models the DFRI keeps and fields for itself, there's a significant overlap in what it develops as Super Robot frames and what can be considered 'mass production' models. A lot of this can be laid at the feet of two particular individuals that work in the Engineering Department: First Lieutenant Adam Wilde, and Sergeant First Class James Henry. Originally they served in the maintenance wing of the Fifteenth Ground Defense Force Motorized Division in the North American District (their part of the Division was based in Alameda specifically). Major Devin head hunted them when he was gathering talent back in A.D. 2070, and their first prototype was the CRX-01A which they demonstrated in March of A.D. 2070. Despite this...thing literally falling apart from standing upright, the Engineers were given enough time and resources to refine it.
It really shows when you consider every Super Robot in the DFRI can do Variable Configuration.
Ever since then, though it's never been made an official practice, each iteration of a Super Robot always starts from a 'production' model. A souped up one, sure, one that can be scaled up with all the fancy in-house bells and whistles, but a production model. And since those production models don't have any of the confidential technologies and can be equipped with conventional weaponry and equipment, Brigadier General Peters has been using this along with the fact we have Super Robots under the EUDF flag now as a good justification for the program's existence. Ever since
Major Devin made the Jackal available to the First Response Corps, the overall response from the Defense Forces as a whole, with some exceptions, has been basically 'more, please.' We're now three years into the DFRI's lifespan, and already a lot of the big names in the industry have been taking on contracts to develop them in larger numbers for the EUDF.
Coincidentally, a lot of these industries are ones that fell on hard times awhile ago due to the rising costs of having to phase out but keep up service support of older models while workshopping new ones. I looked into Devin - he's not the type to schmooze with corpos or industry insiders, and he actively hates having to deal with anything outside of his immediate target range, so he's not an insider risk on that front. But he loves being practical, and practical in this case means making use of older and more available equipment in case the Engineers mess up or explode something. Which they do, a lot. This, along with the now increasing demand, caused some of the Districts' stock markets to make very funny shapes on the graph charts, but the short of it is that Devin now has friends he never knew about or wanted anything to do with. Fun!
He'll be so horrified if he finds out. Kind of tempted to tell him, but I'm absolutely going to be there when he finds out.
So let's go over a few of the models in question. This first file's only concerning the first two - I'll cover more in detail later.
CR-01 'Jackal'
Frame: Coyote-class Patrol Truck
Roles: Urban operations; reconnaissance; light mechanized infantry
Significant Producers: Lone Star Industries; Waltz-Dallman GhB; Daehan Motors
Widest Adopters: First Response Corps, but just about everyone wants some
After Wilde and Henry really got into the brass tacks of making a prototype that didn't just fall apart, what we got was the very first production model just about anyone can use. It's about as simple as can be - it looks, sounds, and is laid out like the old Coyote trucks the EUDF has used for years, so there's not that much retraining that needs to happen. I'm also told by mechanics that it's surprisingly easy to keep maintained once you get your head around the fact that the inner parts also now bend and twist in ways they're not used to.
The first adopters were the First Response Corps, and they've taken it and run with it ever since. After some significant lobbying in Unity Station, Lone Star got the first contract, and I like to imagine that there was a line waiting outside of the production facilities down at Houston. They use it primarily as law enforcement, but also as medical rescue and firefighter augmentees. Pretty sure I've seen a few crop up at Grand Coulee's manifests as natural disaster relief units too recently.
Director, I promise you that you're going to see more variations of this come up. Lone Star has already started making variants specifically for the FRC, and they're already starting to experiment with Variable Configuration for firefighting trucks and ambulances. They already made a law enforcement specific version (the sirens and lights are on the shoulders now! Adorable!). But I'd also expect the less savory criminal types to try and get their hands on some too - and given how much demand for it there is, you can bet the Westphalians will grab their own. Only a matter of time.
The rest of the EUDF are getting their own, mostly out of curiosity - even the Air Defense Forces (including a certain one, though they're slower about it, interestingly). Understandably, the Ground Defense Forces have been experimenting with it a lot, and they're not quite sure what to make of it, so they're concentrating around units conducting experimental wargames and tests. So far, scouting is the natural choice, but there's a few battalion staffs and company commanders arguing that they can be concentrated for city fighting. Even so, a lot of them are being used for facility security - it's really, really hard to break into a facility when you've got giant robots. Not sure it's the best use though - all that's asking for is for criminals or Westphalians to come in with the equivalent of an elephant gun.
CR-02 'Phalanx'
Frame: Buckler-class Infantry Fighting Vehicle (IFV)
Roles: Urban operations; mechanized infantry support; medium anti-armor
Significant Producers: Ares Inc.; Tokyo Heavy Industries; Bolivar-Mecánica
Widest Adopters: Ground Defense Forces, Marine Expeditionary Forces
This one is slightly less widely adopted, but we're getting closer to tanks at this point, so understandable. The Phalanx was the original test frame for what the DFRI now calls K-Circuits, but it was also partially borne out of Devin's own personal annoyance with the original Buckler it was based off of. The way he explains it, a lot of the original premise of the Buckler was the ability to swap out turret systems onto hardpoints that were supposed to be easier to wire in and slot in munitions systems, but it turned into a Lovecraftian nightmare for the mechanics. This is another classic example of the DFRI taking older tech, improving it, and making it work based on widely available chassis.
The Phalanx does more or less what the original Buckler was supposed to do. The Engineers fixed up the hardpoints, but as a a side effect due to the need for Configuration, they doubled down hard on the original modular part of the frame. Its configuration is a little...wonky, at least the first time you see it. The whole front of the vehicle twists around and tilts down ninety degrees in a way that feels kinda queasy, but you do get a very heavily armored mecha that can mount a scaled up riot shield.
Yeah, Ares was very happy to take back up this contract when they were offered. They still send him fruit baskets every so often, though thankfully they now opt to send coffee beans instead of whiskey. I've never seen Devin drink at all, and I'll be concerned if he ever starts. Won't be because of me, though. Probably.
Naturally, the GDF had first dibs on this one when the contracts were announced. Unlike the Jackal, the Phalanx fits a lot more neatly into traditional doctrine apparently - the big debate now is in specifics. The fact that you can have a literal phalanx lock shields is not exactly in line with how the GDF or the MEF use their IFVs (what is with these acronyms?), but they've been experimenting with dropping off their infantry, configuring, and then concentrating into groups of two or three to provide walking cover over open ground. Of course, that all goes out the window once Westphalians or Kausen (or God forbid the kaiju) come into the picture, but you're definitely starting to see more of them around.

Yup. I was already clocking in at almost 2k words, so I figured to put a stop there.
Every other frame that gets released for wider use is going to get its own entry, don't you worry!
In short: one constant thought going through my head was that you all have spawned a slightly alternate version setup for Patlabor, so enjoy that.

I bet when the motorcycles that turn into power armor (can't remember what they're called) hit the civilian market the fire department and law enforcement are going to love those. Fire department because I'm sure those suits would work wonders protecting the wearer from flames and smoke should they need to enter a burning building for search and rescue or other purposes (though I'm not sure how much they weigh so not sure how they'd do if they half to leave the ground floor in a building that's no longer structurally sound) and law enforcement as a fast reaction force for armed robberies or shoot outs since the motorcycle mode would allow them to travel fast to the destination and the power armor mode would give them great protection from small arms fire.
Inadvertently I could also see any profession that gains access to gains robots of any kind will probably see an uptick in new hires as I'm sure being able to put down giant robot operator in a help wanted add will probably get a lot of people applying just for a chance to pilot a giant robot.

There's definitely going to be 'civilian' grade mecha making their mark on mankind.
That said, civilian generally still means 'controlled.' Just because construction or response services get access to them even on the national level doesn't mean guys can casually test if chicks really do dig giant robots.
(Whether a guy finds one in a dump somewhere later on is another matter)
I openly invite folks to imagine how that would all work out as we go along. There's ways I'm probably not thinking of right now.

Eventually as they proliferate I could see even robot combat arenas could become a thing like say Solaris VII from Battletech. Especially once civilian power armor becomes a thing for the pilots to use.
Reinforce the cockpit area, use weaker weapons and set a certain amount of rules (i.e. no deliberately going for the cockpit) and you could have a spectacle that could be relatively safe for the participants.

well off the top of my head there is the possibility of building their own mecha using normal parts and a basic chassis and programming. There are guys out there who build their own cars now that the basic frame and parts are readily available
Assuming that a programming and the basic balancing system for walkers is out there there could be a good mechanic who puts them all thogether to make their own mecha..... Of course I am assuming MMI, K Class materials, and any othere really out there scientific principles that make mecha Super Robots is not going to be proliferated

Not really? Eventually releasing K-Class materials, specifically K-scale derived stuff would be very helpful, and MMI has many beneficial medical applications. The problem is that if we release the tech now the Westphalians and Kausen will take it and use it, plus doctor Sheol would probably do some fuckery to any widely released K-Class materials. But once things settle down I can see the tech entering wider use.
