Early in the game, Wilhelm and the Red Testament discuss about the Rhine Maiden, claiming the data for it is now complete. The Rhine Maiden was later utilized when the Gnosis invades the Kukai Foundation. Miyuki Itsumi later reveals to Shion that she transferred to Second Division to see the weapon in action.

Episode I

Rhine Maiden

Vector's latest development in weapons technology.

Named after Wagner's <Ring of the Nibelung: Prelude - Rhinegold>, in which the Rhinemaidens are three naiads who guard the magic Rhinegold lying at the bottom of the river.

The three ships which have this weapon onboard are called Woglinde, Wellgunde, and Flosshilde (after the original Rhinemaidens). The vessels themselves are massive battleships over 8000m in length, and are equipped with this specialized anti-Gnosis weapon.

Episode III

Rhine Maiden

A Vector-developed specialized anti-Gnosis weapon.

A Vector-developed specialized anti-Gnosis weapon installed on board the Dämmerung, as well as the three Woglinde-class cruisers, Wellgunde, Floßhilde, and the Wuglinde II. When these ships attack in unison, the power of the weapon is showcased to its fullest.

The ship Woglinde was most likely loaned to the Federation Army in order to collect data regarding the Rhine Maiden.
