The OF-type series was a departure of the standard R-type craft. The OF series focused on high-end Bit Conductors and control of said devices, whereas the R-type craft were built towards ever-stronger Wave Cannons and new Force units (though the OF series had their own run of unique Force devices). As such, pilots using an OF craft will find their focus to be with stronger and more versatile Bit Devices.

The OF-1 has been integrated into the R-craft fleet, and now has many of the same capabilities as other craft, though it's still not prepared to handle a full-power Wave Cannon. Pilots will gain access to this ship after logging 90 minutes of flight time with the TX-T Eclipse.

Description:

First unit equipped with a Cyber Connector able to enter and exit the atmosphere. When changing speeds, it transforms for stability. Excess energy after transforming is emitted from the rear. This has been confirmed as a useful weapon and skilled pilots have been known to attack with it during combat.
