This content contains story spoilers for the Mental Omega campaign. Do not read this content if you want to complete the campaign spoiler-free.
Origins[]
An Allied-made Diverbee prototype, developed by Kanegawa Industries, which would eventually be incorporated into Haihead's arsenal.
In the year 1983, the Revolt was formed by the "Architect" Yunru, who, after her experience of being kidnapped by PsiCorps, sought to create a multinational alliance dedicated to combating the psychic threat of Epsilon. At this time, Haihead was not a formal division of Foehn, although prototypes of its future arsenal would be seen throughout the Third Great War and Mental Omega War.
The Remnant[]
After formally defecting from the People's Republic of China, the Revolt fled to Point Hope, Alaska, where they were joined by survivors of the Allied expedition to Antarctica. Using the wreckage of the Paradox Engine, the Revolt erected a time bubble to shield them from the corrupting influence of the Mental Omega Device, which had now guaranteed Epsilon's victory over the free world. The Revolt would later be rechristened the "Foehn Revolt" named after the Foehn Theory behind the time bubble's creation.
Sometime after this, Haihead was formed as the aggressive attack division of Foehn.

Trivia[]
The word Hai has different meanings in several languages; however, considering that the Foehn's symbol features a shark-like creature and that Haihead's "monster mech" is named after en extinct shark species, Hai most likely alludes to the noun Hai, which means "shark" in German, Finnish, & Estonian.
Haihead literally translates to "Shark Head" or possibly the "Shark's Head" and it may be a metaphor for Haihead's role as the main attack force of Foehn. Since Foehn as a whole is represented by a shark, Haihead's name could be interpreted as "the attacking head of a shark", that is, they are part of the shark (Foehn) that focuses on attacking.
