But Ao's "mark 1" is still that ur-IFO all the other IFOs were descended from.

Am I misremembering this? If not, how does this even make sense? For Ao's to have the hidden weapons only Eureka knew about meant it's something that would have to have been brought to Ao's world, not built there (probably...). But then when and by whom, if Eureka's own Nirvash back in that battle on Okinawa was that spec-2 look-alike?

This really isn't adding up for me.
Your confusion is understandable, but unnecessary. You're being thrown off by the paint job, which makes it look closer to the spec2. Eureka's Nirvash, which she arrived in when she landed at Okinawa, is the same Nirvash as the one Ao pilots now. It got disassembled, reassembled, repainted, then painted again once Ao got it.

Being at the site of two Scub Bursts is probably a major amount of trapar exposure. There's also no reason why she couldn't have moved to near one of the numerous coral plants, since in 2020 they knew how to stop Scub Bursts.
