Even though enhancements were made to create the R-9B2 Stayer to be the ultimate long-range unit, the Space Corps eventually found a need to increase the power of their mid-range units. Thus, they scaled back on the long-range boosters and overhauled the basic R-9B. The result, this craft, was superior in nearly every way, with a new Force, Wave Cannon, and added Bit options.
