Shadow Mirrors are special unit in the Earth Federation forces in a parrallel universe.
In Advance, in the dimension the Shadow-Mirror are invading, the Federation's mech of choice was the Metal Armor Dragoon, which was outperformed by, but less expensive than the Gespenst MK II. This was the opposite of the situation in the Shadow-Mirror's original dimension. In the dimension the game takes place in, the original Metal Armors D-1 through D-3 were saved from destruction by Ken Wakaba and his friends, whereas in the Shadow-Mirror dimension, they were destroyed; the data gained through the D-Team's piloting of D-1 through D-3 in the main dimension allowed for a vastly superior Dragoon to be built than in the Shadow-Mirror dimension, making them more cost-effectiveness than the Gespensts. They were still, however, highly inferior to the Shadow-Mirror's Gespensts, but the Shadow-Mirror universe seemingly had Gespensts in mass production for quite some time, considering the number the Shadow-Mirror had access to and also the existence of the Gespenst MK III, while the main dimension's Dragoons only began producing midway through the Shadow-Mirror's invasion.
In Original Generation 2, the mass-production Gespenst MK II M of Earth is an obsolete unit currently being replaced with mass-produced Huckebein MK II Ms. The Shadow-Mirror's mass-produced versions of these Gespensts, however, come equipped with Tesla Drives, a powerful, cheap propulsion system that grants increased speed and flight, and are generally superior in all areas.
It would seem the Shadow-Mirror has access to more efficient production, allowing them to mass-produce expensive, high-performance units. The Shadow mirrors had already created the R-Schneide but in their universe, it is named the R-Eins. They had already mass-produced before jumping into the OG universe therefore confusing the EFA on that side.
