I was thinking about Macross Galaxy. AFAIK it was an imlplant-based colony launched from Eden, I think the main sponsor is General Galaxy backed up by Macross Consortium. Macross Consortium has been known for its many incident (Sharon Apple AI, Ghost X-9 incident). I think Macross Consortium want total domination from the first place (since circa 2040) starting with project Supernova.
They introduce the unmanned Ghost X-9 as the replacement for he main VF at that time and it was proven superior compared with the other AVF prototype at that time. My speculation says that Macross Consortium are planning to use a backdoor program on the Ghost X-9 once its mass produced to gain control on UN Spacy. However this plan failed, so they proceed to the next plan. They asked permission from NUNS/UN Spacy to launch a colony fleet, in which they experiment with fold implant and also mass-produced Ghost V-9 and VF-27.
So in short, Macross Consortium is the ultimate villain here.
