Backfire is a short story from The Concourse to Victory, book three of the Course Books.
In this story, Hunter and Jason test an experimental version of Kiyoku in a newly-built mobile suit. This version, designed to take advantage of the human brain's compartmentalized nature, could theoretically allow a pilot to keep track of more targets and perform more tasks simultaneously.
