Thinking out loud here.

That was my second real deployment with Freya. It... could have gone better.

The Gundam's definitely got some design flaws. Once I lost my shield, there was barely anything I could do. Maybe if I had another beam rifle I could carry around... or if the shield had some sort of barrier...

Heck, I'm an engineer, sort of. I could probably make her more dependable if I put my mind to it.

...Once the repairs are done, at least.

Yeah, I see where you're going... it's tough to rely on just one thing for everything.

Okay, time for solutions! I'm sure the Gundams mk II won't mind if we borrow one of their beam rifles for a backup weapon. As for the shield... I bet I can reroute the power system, so its weapons won't give up all at once when it gets severely damaged. Even when it's beaten up, something should still be working!

And perhaps a grappling cable or something along these lines. So if you lose it, you can retrieve it quickly.

I had that idea when I saw those Britannian KMFs. But they're kinda small so we need to scale up!

You can always count on Lowe Gear! Something like this won't be a problem.
