Invid are simply trying to drive a wedge between the Robotech Expeditionary Force and the Haydonites, the highly advanced cybernetic race that provided them with much of its advanced technology. When Space Station Liberty comes under attack, Vince takes the Icarus to investigate. Upon arriving, Vince realizes how serious the situation is as the attackers appear to be exploiting hidden weaknesses in the new technology. It then becomes apparent through Ariel's earlier warning that the Haydonites themselves are the attackers. As more REF ships are destroyed due to weaknesses in their weapons/defenses Grant realizes that every piece of technology the Haydonites have given to the Robotech Expeditionary Force is equipped with some kind of Trojan horse. Grant realizes that the Icarus is equipped with Haydonite technology and therefore is no longer a viable ship. He orders it to dock at Space Station Liberty and evacuate all personnel to the massive colony ship Ark Angel, which has no Haydonite technology installed. Vince and Scott then ride through Liberty until they reach the remaining supply of Neutron-S missiles in storage on the station. After rigging them for detonation, Vince and Scott board the Ark Angel and slowly depart from the station. When the haydonite vessels to move in to attempt and destroy it the Ark Angel teleports and the missiles detonate, destroying Liberty and the entire Haydonite fleet. Vince is then ordered to take the Ark Angel and search for the SDF-3, which may not have been destroyed. Like the others, Vince can only hope the SDF-3 has survived and that if it has, that the Ark Angel can reach it before the Haydonites.
