Compared to the turbulent weather outside, the atmosphere within P·B Base was fantastic.
Joe Ga worked overnight with a few newly arrived ground crew members to equip several 250-kg class missiles with the 'Pathfinder' wings, then installed four on Big Beak Bird One and five on Big Beak Bird Two.
Having handled the missiles, Joe Ga used his Omnipotent Toolbox to check all the aircraft, confirming there were no issues. He directed the ground crew to arm the 'Doe', while he and Ayu equipped the rear cabin of the 'Hippo' that Nis would pilot the next day with two M61 Vulcans and two captured MG3 machine guns. This setup did make the cabin door a bit crowded, but he didn't mind...
Antar was familiarizing herself with the electronic system of the Hippo. Although she couldn't pilot, she was quite adept with electronics. Joe Ga perceived that using her as a gunner might be a slight stretch, so he prepared sixteen expensive anti-tank missiles for her.
