 In [[timeline:YE 31]], [[characters:yamatai:shinja_fujita]] became the commander of SARA. After 10 years of being at the forefront of Star Army technology, things slowed down in the YE 30s to the point SARA gained a reputation for being a bunch of lazy geeks who collect paychecks without really delivering anything of real value. This was due to a lack of new major projects. In [[timeline:YE 31]], [[characters:yamatai:shinja_fujita]] became the commander of SARA.

During the same year, [[stararmy:ranks:chujo]] [[characters:yamatai:iemochi_feyani]], who reformed the [[stararmy:military_police|]], decided to petition [[characters:yamatai:hanako]] for the opportunity to try her hand at invigorating and renewing SARA. She was subsequently appointed as the new Director, formed the Divisions and brought in the Innovation Awards Scheme. In [[timeline:ye_46|]], SARA removed Iemochi Feyani from the position and left the position open, lending to speculation about is next Director. +In [[timeline:ye_42|]], [[stararmy:ranks:taisho]] [[characters:yamatai:yui]] was so frustrated with the lack of activity in SARA that she fired its commander, [[stararmy:ranks:chujo]] [[characters:yamatai:shinja_fujita]]((https://stararmy.com/roleplay-forum/threads/orders-shinja-fujita.65795/#post-411060)).
