This revision of ''[[Technical Readout: 3025]]'' was supposed to supersede the original book, even retaining the same production code, but it removed the infamous Unseen (the entire entry, not just the artwork) and replaced them with appropriately downgraded [[Succession Wars era]] variants of various [[Star League era]] designs from ''[[Technical Readout: 2750]]''.
