  1. I have an annoying suspicion that the '262s have no clear canopy. The Varuata fighters also used that, but they also acted as a full escape pod instead of the '262s standard ejection seat. In a dogfight when you could be engaging each other at close to Mach-speeds, the use of a wrap-around screen probably added little benefit to fighter mode. Missile could be dodged or decoyed so it wouldn't matter if you obtained missile lock from above them. Bombing runs could still use the MFD that's already there. And guns still fire in only one direction at any given instance.
  2. Prosthetics like Batou's eyes might hamper the actor's peripheral vision. They're small enough that they might be hard to stick on to stick onto his face as well.
  3. The reaction engines generate electricity. Otherwise, the principle is still the same as a conventional turbofan jet engine. Something has to come out of the other end of the engine to push the vehicle along. Since space has no air to throw out, they have to use some kind of propellant. Until some form of new engine comes along which uses different form of propulsion, this is how VF engines work. In space, VF reaction engines are basically rocket engines. That's how it's been.
  4. One way to describe ECA is, it's like taking a piece of aluminum foil, running an electrical current through it, and it becomes as tough as 5 mm of titanium yet still retaining the thickness of that aluminum foil. Instead of just needing the force of your arm and finger to put a hole into the foil, you're going to need an RPG to put a hole in that foil.
  5. Messer wasn't cured. Walkure basically give the equivalent of ibuprofen to manage the symptoms. It's either move away from all the people with the flu or stick around and increase the chances of getting sick.
  6. Cuz it was just announced today. A few hours ago. posted on 2016-06-07 22:00 EDT
  7. Since we've killed someone already, which even by anime terms is fairly early, Kawamori should break the mold. I'm going to go with Cassim-whatever-his-name-is to die by Chuck. Herman? I going with Mirage or Arad to be the one to take him down but not as Herman is trying to save Bogue.
  8. Probably. Technically, he's had a few, considering Heinz and Keith are half-brothers. We don't know who she was. She's probably dead. Don't know. Probably dead. They're are plenty of Windermere women. They just haven't been the focus of the story. Except Freyja. Windermere women haven't been the focus of the story. Unless they bring in a female character to the story.
  9. That's the hope. We've been guessing for a while now Haya-Haya was paired with Mirage because Mirage is too by-the-book while Hayate is too undisciplined, so the 2 would complement each other. But they're gonna have to step up their game now. He could have pulled a Gamlin, if he kept the bracelet.
  10. Mod Note 24-hours are up. REMINDER: From now on, if we see or hear about anyone posting spoilers during the first 24 hours, that user(s) will lose their posting privileges for the week and an extra 24 hours will be added to the thread for each offense.
  11. Yeah, looks like Keith is tailing Messer so that would likely make it the head lasers. On a side note, we now know the VF-31 has no internal fold system considering he ejected the fold booster at a really low orbit.
  12. My death note from last week's and episode and the week prior still stands.
  13. Mod note So you couldn't help yourself. Fine. I'm going to be nice and only revoke posting privileges for the week. Should this happen on the next episode, not only will offenders have to sit out a week, but I will add an extra 24-hours of spoiler tag-use for each offense. We just asked to use spoiler tags for 24-hours. But if you can't contain yourself, I will start punishing.
  14. We found out a long time ago. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=38408
  15. EX-Gear is just a fancy ejection seat which gives you an exo-skeleton and LMG. You don't need EX-Gear in an ICS and EX-Gear can be used anywhere it can fit. A VF-27 just happens to have EX-Gear and ICS while also requiring a cyborg to pilot it.
