Database[edit]
Episode I
Plan 401
Codename for an order given by Margulis.
This plan apparently entailed taking control of the Federation's military through political means, rather than resorting to the U-TIC Organization's fleet.
The goal of this plan was to surround Miltia with his fleet and usurp the vested rights of the planet.
Episode III
Plan 401
The order given to the control the Federation forces that had been infiltrated by U-TIC Organizations operatives.
The name of the plan enacted in conjunction with Plan 31, employed by the U-TIC
Organization in order to strip the Second Miltian autonomous government of
their vested rights. It entails the use of not the U-TIC Organization's own
fleet, but of Federation forces manipulated through the government.
By disseminating throughout space, composite video footage apparently showing
the Durandal attacking the Woglinde, the Kukai Foundation, and by extension the
Second Miltian government, were framed for treason, resulting in the
mobilization of the Gedalya Region 422nd Fleet.
Later, through operatives within the Federation, the U-TIC Organization
proposed stripping the Second Miltian autonomous government of its vested
rights, attempting once again to get their hands on MOMO, the key to the
Y-Data.
It is apparent that Margulis, who directed the operation, considered temporarily giving up MOMO to be a part of his predicted scenario.
Xenosaga I & II
プラン401
U-TIC機関が、第二ミルチア自治政府の既得権を剥奪するため、プラン31と連動させて画策した作戦の名称。
U-TIC機関の保有する艦隊を動かすのではなく、政府を通じて連邦軍部そのものを操作する事を意味している。
デュランダルがヴォークリンデを攻撃しているという合成映像を全宙域に流す事により、クーカイ・ファウンデーション及び第二ミルチア政府を、星団連邦に対する反逆罪として陥れ、ゲダルヤ方面軍第四二二艦隊の展開を行った。
その後、連邦議会にて第二ミルチア自治州政府の既得権剥奪を発議し、連邦に潜伏するU-TIC機関の残党を通じて、再びY資料の鍵を握るM.O.M.O.を手中に収めようとした。
作戦を指示したマーグリスにとって、M.O.M.O.を手放す事も想定内であった事が窺える。
