Then when are you willing to risk it? Cause if not now than next round it will be even riskier to use it since all our planes will likely be shot down leaving the Pegasus alone in the air meaning we either have it try and yolo the swarm by itself or have it flee the battlespace allowing the flyers free range. I just don't see any way keeping up the current status quo of the air battle leads to anything but our inevitable loss.
Like sure the Pegasus and its lasers cannons would be useful for helping against the Kaiju fights but that's kind of irrelevant when the flyer swarm is likely to force it off the field before we get to that point. So better to risk it now while it still has flight mates helping it than later on as far as I can see.
And that's fine. The Seekers don't experience casualties, they just get repositioned. Once enough Shades enter the Institute and finish flushing it out we can abandon the air battle

I know you're not asking me, and I'm not voting at the moment, but my answer to this: NEVER. It is a unique machine, for which we do not have easy or priority access to the parts to replace it. Thus, it is currently irreplaceable and should be treated as such.
Besides, it is both our SR team's ticket out of there once things are finished, and Diana's primary link to the op site. Preserving it means she can continue to contribute; losing it means she can't help coordinate the infantry defense anymore.
We should probably think about making a dedicated carrier ship for hordes of Seekers and their eventual upgrades as support forces for our super robots. Plus having dedicated Mechanized infantry available from the start instead of just shot down Seeker pilots would be a good idea in the future.
They'd have a lot of utility against both Kaiju infiltrators and Westphalia separatists.

We might have to choose between the Mercury 5 and the Pegasus. Because the swarm is looking to join the attack on the institute. Which...
Well, considering even with the slow trickle of steeds, we aren't exactly winning, may be a big problem.
Once the Steeds allow the defenders to overwhelm the infiltrators, allowing the fliers to have free rein ceases to be an issue since theyll be fighting through enclosed spaces that deny them their advantages.
The institute is what matters, not the airspace, and every Seeker that gets shot down is a reinforcements for the Institute

Special forces isn't our remit. Ours is building and deploying Super Robots with a mix of building certain things like Dropships/Spaceships as well but that's more uncommon. And besides. the DFRI wouldn't be able to use a Spec Ops squad properly. that's better left to the people who know how to use spec ops squads.
Likely the closest is developing spec ops vehicles, like we did for making spook mechs.

Okay so specops are out... What about a garrison to protect against the mini Kaiju infiltrators.
What is the gsdf?

We have that at the DFRI base. Each SR group handles their own base security. Our base security is shown in multiple updates including the battle with Warlord when he attacked the base.

Post is probably coming tomorrow or Sunday at the latest.
That said: developments like that would happen organically around you, rather than you having any input. Projects like the supercarrier refit were an exception due to interesting circumstances, but so long as you're developing the technology, someone somewhere in the EUDF chain of command is going to think up of new ideas of how to use them.
