BX-T Dantalion is the first ship in the B Series. It plays a large part in the Bydo Tissue series, and all further Bydo craft build upon the tests performed with this craft. This frame design would later be incorporated into the short B-3C Sexy Dynamite series. Though the B-1D Bydo System Alpha gave the Space Corps insight into the Bydo's ability to assimilate technology, they were already experimenting with Bydo biotechnology before that. This test craft, inspired by and incorporating far more material than a Force unit, allowed entire branches of ships based off of Bydo study.

Requirements
This craft is the entry-level Bydo ship; nearly all other Bydo craft are earned by using this one first. To unlock the BX-T, pilots must have the RX-12 Cross The Rubicon unlocked and Beautiful Erasure completed.
Description
[Bydo Synthesis Trial]
Until now, Bydo body parts were only used in the Force Device, but the Bydo Synthesis Project aimed to test armor usage. The BX-T tests this application. A powerful machine is needed to stop the Bydo threat, and this fighter was developed to meet the needs of the pilots fighting the battles.

Achievement
An easter egg and achievement "Dantalion's Flute" featuring the Dantalion exists. This may occur when the player chooses an Original Course that doesn't start with Stage 1.0, Stage X1.0, Stage X3.0, Stage X5.0, or Stage Y1.0 as the 1st Mission, gets a game over, quits to the menu, relaunches the original course without "Skip Demo" enabled, and then proceeds to watch the entire intro cutscene.

Eventually, the navigator in the hangar will speak in an eerie way, identifying themselves as "Bydo Von Granzella", and the player will take off normally, only now encountering the Dantalion flying in the opposite direction as they engage their warp drive.

The achievement should unlock in tandem with the sighting, and the sighting must occur in order for it to unlock.
