SNRI’s next-generation testbed, the F99 Record Breaker, was the first mobile suit to use a miniaturized version of the Minovsky drive system. Inspired by the sail of light used by the Mother Vanguard, the Minovsky drive allowed the Record Breaker to generate wings of light, which gave it speed, mobility and range greater than any contemporary mobile suit. The Record Breaker was built off of the same frame as the F97 (the Crossbone Gundams and XM-10 Flint), and in fact shared about 75 percent of their parts, meaning those parts could be shared between the two machines. In order to get to Jupiter in time to stop the reborn Jupiter Empire’s new colony laser, the Crossbone Vanguard met with SNRI’s engineers to ask to borrow the wings of light technology. However, the Empire anticipated this and attacked the SNRI lunar factory, destroying all three test F99s as well as all the remaining spare parts and performance data.
