Super-power's military consisted of both separate terrestrial and an orbital navies, each with distinctively different battleships. However, the cost of maintaining them both was becoming too much for the fiscally conservative-minded goverment. So the Forer Administration set out on a project, led by engineer Hajime Katoki, to streamline the orbital and naval ships into one sleek, powerful cruiser.

At last, after a decade of testing and dozens of failed designs, the day came when the new fleet would be unveiled.

"Like with the previous navies, the MSC-07 Albion (http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/0083/pegasus.jpg) will continue to serve as our flagship. Howver, our fleets will now consist of 20 Reinforce Junior-Class (http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/v/reinforcejr.jpg) cruisers, each with the capacity to launch 25 mobile suits. Their armament consists of six 2-barrel main guns, sixteen 3-barrel secondary guns, and one mega particle cannon. In addition, they also incorporate the latest beam shielding technology, allowing the Reinforce Junior-Class to project a rectangular beam barrier in front of it."

"Our mobile suits will still remain the MSZ-006A1 Z Plus A1 (http://www.gearsonline.net/gundam/sentinel/zplus/a1-08.jpg) for terrestrial/aerial combat, and the MSZ-006C1 Z Plus C1 (http://www.gearsonline.net/gundam/sentinel/zplus/c1-04.jpg) for spacial combat."
