This satellite was later commandeered by the Robotech Expeditionary Force when they arrived at Tirol and began a war against the forces of the Invid Regent. To develop their new space fleet, they had Breetai's Zentraedi warrior mine the monopole ore for processing at the satellite. When General T. R. Edwards began to plot against Rick Hunter, he attempted to force Breetai to provide him the monopole ore.
