The Lunar Base[2] is a facility operated by the United Nations Cosmo Force's Space Defense Command,[3] established either before or during the Great Garmillas War. The 7th Space Cavalry Regiment was stationed there during the last here of the war. On Feburary 9, 2199,[4] the base fell under attack from a Pormelia-class Astro Assault Carrier and its fighters.[5]
Following the end of the Garmillas War the Cosmo Force continued to use the base, and its headquarters became the seat of the Lunar Air Corps and the testing ground for the prototype Cosmo Tiger I fighter.[2][6]
Notes
- According to the Yamato 2202 novelization, the Lunar Base was expanded during its post-war reconstruction.[7]
