Operators

Three Operators were seen in a cutscene in Metroid: Other M within the bridge of a massive spaceship, possibly the Federation Army Special Ops Battleship Vixin IV, that was towing a civilian starcraft with a malfunctioning drive unit above an unnamed planet.

There were two male operators (voiced by Dave Howe and Tom McGurk) and a female (voiced by Erika Webright). It is not currently possible to distinguish the voices of either male operator. One of the males was first seen speaking to Ian Malkovich, who was repairing the drive unit, urging him to be careful. Suddenly, it goes critical, as the female states, and Commander Adam Malkovich, Ian's older brother, gives the orders for it to be detached. The female operator and Samus Aran, moreso the latter, protest the decision. This cutscene is the only one where the operators are seen. Their true names are unknown.
