The Queadluun-Rhea was a modern reimagination of the Zentradi Queadluun-Rau battle suit that had proved itself in combat in countless conflicts, including Space War I. The Queadluun-Rhea featured improved avionics, sensors, engine power and armaments. Its weapons included two 3-barrel laser pulse guns, two medium-bore impact cannons, an anti-ship impact cannon and four missile launcher pods. Like its predecessor, the Queadluun-Rhea could only be piloted by full-size Zentradi, but it was piloted by both men and women. In 2059, the Queadluun-Rhea was used by Zentradi units in NUNS, as well as by the private military company SMS on the Macross Frontier emigration fleet. The members of SMS’ Pixie Team saw active combat throughout the Vajra War in 2059. As of 2067, the Queadluun-Rhea was used by Zentradi NUNS units in the Brisingr Globular Cluster.
