After the time skip of 18 months in season 1, the Terrans' knowledge of
Martian cataphracts has suddenly increased, so much so that they are able to
identify the name of the cataphract and its owner as well.

What led to this intel for terrans?

How did Terrans gain information about the Mars knights' cataphracts?


If you had watched episode 12 of the first season, then you should know that
the battle at [Saazbaum](http://aldnoahzero.wikia.com/wiki/Saazbaum)'s
[Landing Castle](http://aldnoahzero.wikia.com/wiki/Landing_Castle) ended with
the Earth forces' victory. That would mean they obtained all the castle's
facilities and all the information contained on that fortress. With Inaho
being able to use the Aldnoah Drive, they could have reactivated the fortress
and retrieved the information from it, or they just ripped out the hard disks
and scanned them for data. However, judging from the fact that Inaho was using
his Drive on [Deucalion](http://aldnoahzero.wikia.com/wiki/Deucalion), they
most likely just salvaged information instead of reactivating it.
