Well, it's a Queadluun-Rea, not a Queadluun-Rau, which could be the ancient design given a full systems upgrade by humans.

Furthermore, the VF-25 is stated to outclass the Q-Rea in manueverability. It was a training mission, so the opposing force should not be expected to completely outmatch the trainees. Three experienced pilots in antiquated suits vs. three rookies in state of the art valkyries is a reasonable handicap.
