Operation US

Operation US  (US作戦, US Sakusen^?) was carried out by the organization WILLE in the Evangelion 3.0: You Can (Not) Redo film. This operation was meant to retrieve Evangelion Unit-01. The preparations of the mission can also be seen in the Evangelion 3.0 (-120 min.) manga.

History[]

Evangelion 3.0: You Can (Not) Redo[]

The goal of Operation US was to retrieve a cross-shaped satellite that had been launched into outer space, with Unit-01 inside of it. Unit-02'β, having been partially repaired, was launched and connected to a massive booster array with Asuka as its pilot. Evangelion Unit-08 was also sortied, piloted by Mari but she was unable to gain sufficient enough altitude to do anything other than play a support role for Unit-02'β. After a successful launch for Unit-02'β, the Tesseract was acquired as a target. At this point Unit-02'β was attacked by the Code 4A of the Nemesis Series. Unit-08 was able to snipe and destroy the units while Asuka secured the tesseract. At this point, the Code 4B of the Nemesis Series was revealed to have been hiding on the tesseract, just as Unit-08 is forced to retreat. The Code 4B engaged Unit-02'β with Field Reflection Coatings, and succeeded in removing one of the arms of Unit-02'β. Overwhelmed by the Code 4B, Asuka pleaded for Shinji to do something. Unit-01 unexpectedly awoke inside the satellite, and used a beam from its eyes to destroy the Code 4B.
