The cockpit begins to twist and bend. Death will be here soon. Takeru covers his face. He can’t die here, he tells himself.

The veterans surround Takeru when he tells them he's the one behind the new OS.

The afternoon exercises begin. The formation for the afternoon exercises changes, and Chizuru and Meiya join up with Takeru.

Takeru says that the enemy's such a good pilot it doesn’t feel like fighting a Gekishin. In answer to Mikoto's message, Takeru says he’ll handle this enemy.

The Surface Pilots participating as Red Team are all veterans with over 20 combat sorties.

The exercise is set to take place in (what’s left of) Negishi Forest Park. The Type-87 Maintenance Trailers containers are jacked-up one after another.
