In show they created Mecha before a Plane. Even though they have created plane but still use airship. They have tanks 50 years before any cars. They created a complex drill machine before other thing.

In the real world new techniques is often developed for war and is only afterwards adapted into civilian life.

And they do have both Aeroplanes and cars in LoK, where they have mech suits. I don't remember any in the original series.

In the real world we had both airships and planes and only stopped using airships because of the Hindenburg disaster.
