第7話: 第1部門、新型SRX-70プロトタイプパトロール労働を評価

7

Division 1 are ready to take on a new prototype Patrol Labor, the SRX-70. Equipped with a 42mm gun, it outclasses the Ingram in every department and proves its worthiness in patrols. Strangely, the company sends its own team of mechanics to service the Labor rather than letting SV2's mechanics service it. Captain Goto smells a rat. Sure enough he finds out with the help of Asuma that the company providing the Labor, Toyohata, is a front for Labor maker Shaft. They want to steal the Labors' pattern movements and data to help develop a military Labor. Captain Nagumo of Division 1 is forced to decide between using the old outdated '97 Patlabors, or the new prototype, which the data from it will most likely be used for military purposes.
