The R-9E revolutionized AWACS support for the Space Corps. However, the craft was unsuitable for direct combat, which was a situation it often found itself in. As an attempt to increase the combat effectiveness, this craft was built as a small improvement upon the Midnight Eye, increasing the Wave Cannon and Force device.
