The R-501 made several appearances in the Intercorporate War. They would first appear in an illegal transport move over Expo City, wherein they were all shot down by Nemo. They would later make an appearance by dropping chemicals amidst a training exercise involving Nemo, Abyssal Dision and Keith Bryan, wherein the chemicals were destroyed before they could hit the ground.
