The Chimera Corps (a.k.a Ace Corps) is a group of ace pilots hand-picked by Kycilia Zabi of the Principality of Zeon. The team has been featured in Mobile Suit Variations, but the team is the main focus of MSV-R:The Return of Johnny Ridden. The group takes its name from the female creature of Lycia mentined in Greek mythology, born of Typhon and Echidna.
Organization
In MSV-R Jacobius Node mentions there is a rumor about the Chimera Corps are hiding the treasure of the Zabi family. The men of the Chimera Corps weren't just ace pilots most of them were experienced commanders able to support the unit with abundance of expertize, not just piloting skills. Normally they would have been stationed all across the frontline to raise the level of the army as a whole, but they were all brought to the same place. The strongest battalion ever made and yet Kycilia Zabi the Chimera's owner hardly ever put them to use other than the Battle of A Baoa Qu.
History
One Year War
Not much is known about the corps' early history. The actual founding is debated to have been either four weeks before the end of the war or sometime during or after the Battle of Solomon. The corps was founded by Kycilia Zabi, lone daughter of Degwin Sodo Zabi of the Principality, who also founded the covert-ops Midnight Fenrir team and established Char Aznable's 300th Independent Corps for Newtypes. Despite their high status, the Chimera was not deployed very often, possibly due to the Federation advancing on A Baoa Qu. The battalion was largely broken into four units the mother ship and the support ships formed one fleet. Ace pilots were at the center then the fleet escorts served as reserved for the center unit. Lastly, the engineering support unit also known as "Hydra." With a talented group of ace pilots, engineers, and mechanics the team often got the best of equipment from the Zeon forces. At the time the MS-14A Gelgoog were deployed, they were nothing more than test types. In all there were 31 pilots in the corps, with 24 of them piloting the newest model Gelgoog or some variation of it. The engineering support team were considered the heart of Chimera in no time at all they improved and modified the Gelgoogs into specialized units for the battalion. This team was formed under the pretext of supporting Chimera and were on a ship specifically made for mobile suit modification. Top engineers and mechanics from all makers such as Zeonic, Zimmad, MIP and much more were transferred in. They had with them a compact version of the repair and modification system that birthed the Principality of Zeon MS variation group.
The Chimera Corps was most prominent at the Battle of A Baoa Qu and Operation Clarion. In the final stages of the Battle of A Baoa Qu, the Chimera Corps received orders from the Rear Admiral Kycilia to pull out of the fortress and dispatch a portion of their unit. Though how many members actually survived is unknown. It is likely they were killed in action along with the Rear Admiral Kycilia Zabi. Presumably, Zeon erased the records of the Corps before the Federation invaded A Baoa Qu. Afterwards, a debate within the Chimera Corps has lead them to split in two causing a mutiny within the battalion. A battle erupted among them as they withdrew from the A Baoa Qu sector. In the end, the Chimera Corps were surrounded by one Oxner Cliff's units from Luna II. All of the equipment went to Federation hands in order to escape arrest and detainment by handling over all of the various wartime data, which were the summary of the combat records.
