A training exercise occurs at the Izu base involving two prototype machines. Ryusei from the SRX team operates the R-Blade, a simplified mass-produced variant of his R-1. Latouni of the special tactics instruction squad pilots the Wild Falken, a new unit from the ATX plan. Archibold's DC forces deploy Yuki's squad to retrieve the prototype. The squad includes Arado and Seolla, young pilots educated at an institute known as "The School." Latouni, who previously attended this same school, confronts Seolla during the combat scenario. This engagement highlights the tension between the training exercise and the external military intervention aimed at securing the advanced technology.
