The AEU-05OP AEU Hellion Orbit Package was the space use version of the standard AEU-05/05 AEU Hellion Perpetuum. The suit was modified for space movement by removing its flight unit backpack. It was also fitted with a new type of head that exposed the sensor. The Orbit Package’s main armament was a linear rifle that mounted a grenade launcher, but it could also tow a missile launcher through space. In 2307, a terrorist group used the Orbit Package in an attempted attack on the HRL’s orbital elevator that was foiled by Celestial Being. In 2314, the long outdated Orbit Package was used by the Earth Sphere Federation to bolster its defense line during the ELS invasion.
