Space Station Liberty was not the only factory satellite captured by the UEEF(as more were found and captured in the intervening years), but it is/was the most famous of them all (as stated in Artbook of the Shadow Chronicles). Robotech Universe has colony worlds, as the side mission in looking for the Masters Homeworld was the search and colonization of hospitable worlds (the Gloval Initiative of 2014, as stated by Lancer in Invasion). Nevermind what a group of VF-25's with full kit can do. The VF19 and later will just turn on their stealth systems and blow right trough the REF with their own, rather large, internal loads. This is, however, leaving out any fast packs that can be bolted on the VF-11 and VF-17. In a pre VF-17 dogfight, the Macross forces could be forced on the defensive as they suddenly have to change to Soldier mode and fend off a huge wave of short range missiles.īetween the later model VF-11 having leg mounted internal SRM launchers and the VF-17 internal weapons load and stealth capability, they can try blowing trough the missile barrage and get stuck in. The Alpha and Beta have a huge short range missile spam alpha strike that the earlier VF's can't match, even with wing hardpoints.Īlthough they do have the potential for a better standoff capability, as the Beta has only 6 medium range and two long range missiles while the VF series usually can carry up to 6 long range or 18 medium missiles on the hardpoints. The VF-17 is the first Variable Fighter with a large internal missile capacity. They have the Technology to probably bring down the Death Star. Where suddenly those fighters are unleashing ungodly destruction wiping out 2-3 Times their Number simply because they are More Manuverable and ALOT more deadly. Macross can now defold entire formations of fighters behind your fleet and fire a barrage of Reaction Missiles before you even realize they are THERE. You have VFs firing Reaction Missile Spam all over the place.Īnd once Fold Boosters come into things. Now ship to ship Robotech is utterly fucked. Until then things are pretty fair hell, I believe until then Robotech has Alphas + Betas compared to Macross having VF-11s, Even if the Beta hasnt been rolled out at that point the Alpha is still going to beat a Thunderbolt a good percentage of the time from the Internal Missile Spam. Yeah, Once the VF-17 is rolled out Macross Machines will literally steamroller their counterparts.
