Related Matter: Civilian EX-Gear
In addition to the military standard EGP-03/05, the civilian PS/ML-21 standard exists among the EX-Gear EG-01M/MP. It is possible for the civilian one to connect it to VFs because the ones for civilians and the military were designed with the same basic format, and their performance as a cockpit system isn't inferior.

Right: Civilian EX-Gear
The PS/ML-21 standard is used as teaching material by Mihoshi Academy's Space Flight Department. Even though they are the majority of EX-Gear that are sold, in general, they are simplified even more for sports.

Caption: As their transformation mechanisms and interface are the same as the ones for military use, it is possible for them to connect with VFs.
