Explanation:
The author intends to mean a "second generation" which could be what he/she intends to be more that a second version, etc. because of that person's perception that a "second version" or a "second revision" is totally incompatible with the actual fact, which is, probably a totally new and renewed form of the original one.
The thinking behind using 2生 is possibly from the word ”2世” as, perhaps, in George Bush, "Jr", the Genius.

Sorry, I should have typed "intends to be more than a second version" rather than "intends to be more that a second version...".
Sorry about that.

Of course, I also agree with Okada-san's interpretation of the meaning being simply "第二生産技術部", etc., which is also very likely if the author is of the same cadre as Mr. George Bush, Jr.
