This page will answer many questions about the things going
on in Patlabor. Later on each subject will be explained to their
fullest, but for now I'll just leave the subject headers so that you know what's to come.
Overview of the SV2
The SV2 was formed in 1996 in response to a growing number of labor crimes
in the greater Tokyo area which a regular special vehicle division were
not equipped to handle. One solitary unit using the MPL-96 Asuka
pioneered the experimental field of law enforcement involving labors. In the few
years since that time the field of patrol labors has expanded into a science.
The SV2 is stationed in a hangar located on a remote reclaimed land by Tokyo Bay far from the
centralized population of Tokyo. Out there there are no stores or restaurants
for miles. That being the case, the place has been forced to adapt by becoming a
community into itself.
