The SVMS-01AW Union Flag Orbit Package Astro Work Type was a space work variant of the SVMS-01OP Union Flag Orbit Package. Commonly known as the Astro Work Flag, it was mainly used in its mobile armor mode and could transform into a Raptor position and Standing position. The Astro Work Flag’s arms could be fitted with other types of manipulators depending on the work to be done. The suit’s legs could also transform into a second pair of manipulators, and the linear spears could be deployed from the middle of these leg manipulators like the SVMS-01AP Union Flag Orbit Package Colony Guard Type. The Astro Work Flag was armed, but its combat capabilities were inferior to the Colony Guard Type. The suit’s backpack contained the main battery, a larger capacitor for its weapons, magazines for the 60mm integrated linear cannons, etc. After fitting the MLR-04 Crossfire with additional launching attachment, the Astro Work Flag could use it as a mass driver for transporting cargo containers.
