Was there a reason why Jamitov Hymen disliked the whole Gundam Project during Operation Stardust? With his intention of ruling earth through the Titans later on wouldn't the Gundams be an icon of power? Or was Anaheim Electronics just greedy cunts that costs were expensive for them? I understand that Lt Cima received the Gerbera later and as a token of defecting and if she survived she'd obviously be adopted into the Titans

Wasn't that just because the main characters wouldn't stop disobeying orders and fucking up their plan?
The Gundam image and its psychological effects were intentionally utilized by the Titans.

>was Anaheim Electronics just greedy cunts
Yes, everything after the OYW was Anaheim fault because they live out of everyone else's misery during a war.

>b-b-but the Gundam is just a machine it doesn't mean anything!!!11!!1
Fucking autists.

Burying the Gundam development program buries a lot of evidence for precisely how Stardust went down. The harder it is to point the finger at Jamitov and Bask the better for the both of them.
Also cancelling and burying the EFSF's Gundam program let's you take the whole thing in-house, A-la AoZ and the eventual MK-2.

So it was Jamitovs way of saying to the Albion crew "no new toys cause you keep fucking up my plan"?
Letting operation Stardust happen so he could create the Titans
At the same time it would also mean no one could rival his Titan crew,
Also the burying of it all starts to make sense now, thanks guys
Just planning on making a small manga revolving around some Gunpla I'm about to kitbash and I wanna base my first one around the GP04/Gerbera Tetra/Tetra Kai but as a Titans Test Team prototype, the establishment of the Titans and the deletion of the Gundam Project and relating sentences is a 3 month gap, so I want to make some believable fluff for its creation, at the same time it's creators being Anaheim I'll just call it stolen schematics for Konpeitoh or Titans themselves
The Gundam project was small potatoes compared to Jamitov's goals in the long term. Passing on the full development of these prototypes doesn't mean they're lost forever and completely wasted, either. AE and the Federation kept the useful bits like the e-pacs, binders, and panoramic cockpit tech and "reinvented" them later for other machines to use.
Beyond the threat of Zeon remnants which Jamitov's plan was gonna sweep up at the end anyway, it seems that Jamitov didn't expect the Federation to be fighting any serious external enemies. The loss of the Gundam project doesn't really affect the regular army in any way, really. If nothing else, we know from other material that AE and the Federation continued work but in other ways. With the Gundam project off the table, they started work on the next generation of grunts like the Hizack.

So the plans for say... the schematics for GP04 Gerbera could be passed on to the Titans Test team? though probably made by the Titans themselves or Konpeitoh Aresnal since he had a "Terra Firma" plan?

Like the US then?

Almost, it would be closer to say Lockheed or another private military supplier only because comparing a country to a company is apples and oranges.
