History 

The early MUUPA line military prototypes were first deployed during the Battle of Midgård. After the battle, mainline quadrupedal MUUPA’s were recalled for a mass-combat conversion, although some units managed to escape the draft. The original prototypes, with the exception of the quadrupedal model, were ordered dismantled afterwards, cited to have only ever been useful in acquiring combat data.
