The GF Research and Development Division is a department of the Galactic Federation focused on research and development of their technology. It is mentioned in an unused Galactic Federation Data entry in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption detailing the Anhur-class patrol ship. In response to complaints from GFMC personnel about unreliable circuitry systems in Anhur-class ships, the division stated that these problems would be soon resolved.

The Anhur-class is the perfect example of a warship, designed for control and defense of planetary systems. Ships of this class, added successively, will replace the obsolete Aries class as the primary troop transport of the Federation. The Anhur is faster and uses shield systems instead of the separate protective armor of the Aries type. The armament, however, is comparable to the older vessels. Some crews have complained about unreliable circuitry systems in the Anhur ships, but the GF Research and Development Division assures the Admiralty that these problems will be resolved soon.
