gamlin Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 Hello. What the two VFSX programs are? The Nova project? And what about these strange Valkyries seen on japanese web sites?: VF-X-3 Medusa VF-X-4 Siren VF-X-5 VF-X-9 VF-1 Evol VF-X-10 VF-X-12 YF-1 YF-4 YF-5 YF-9 YF-14 YF-17... Fan supposition or official material? Quote
USCOLMRNE Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 YF aircraft are experimental candidates that can possibly go into full production if they pass the required tests or beat the other aircraft for the government contract. Project Super Nova was the YF-19 and YF-21 competiting to replace the UN Spacy's VF-11B Thunderbolt. As for the other ones, I do not know Quote
Zinjo Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 If designed by SK they were his design experiments that found their way into canon history as experimental test beds for various technologies, transformation sequences, etc... Some ultimately were developed further and found their way into games. Essentially the VFX-SWA was his experiment in updating the VF-1 Valkyrie that got featured in a Japanese Hobby Magazine "Character Model", the VFX-SWAII was a forward swept experimental design (personally like to believe it was his redesign experiment of the VF-9, but no documented proof of my theory has ever been seen) as well.

gamlin Posted February 5, 2008 Author Posted February 5, 2008 (edited) http://www5.ocn.ne.jp/~sieg/chronological_table.html 2005 ・第2次VFX計画発動。 ストンウェル/ベルコムにて開発コード:VF-X-3(社内コード:メデューサ)、オーテック社にて開発コード:VF-X-4(社内コード:セイレーン)開発開始。 2009 ・用途限定(専用機)運用構想に基づく第1次VSFX(支援戦闘機)計画発動。 ノースロム社にて開発コード:VF-X-5、開発開始。 2011 ・ストンウェル/ベルコムにて、VSFXの候補に名乗りを上げるべく、VF-1の改良型(社内コード:VF-1Evo(エボリューション))を開発開始(この段階では軍からの正式な開発コードは与えられず)。 2018 ・VF-5000、初飛行。 ・第2次VSFX計画発動。 ゼネラルギャラクシー社にて開発コード:VF-X-9、開発開始。 2022 ・第3次VFX計画、GVF(汎用可変戦闘機)計画(プロジェクトコード:Nova)として正式発動。 3チームの試作機の良いトコ採りをして、新星インダストリー社で正式に”YF-11”開発開始。 (たてまえ上、この機体より開発コードの”VF-X”ナンバーは廃止)。 2025 ・ゼネラルギャラクシー社、GVF計画で試作した”VF-X-12”をもとに、YF-11の対抗機種として次期主力機を目指した”YF-14”の開発を開始。 (競作そのものが軍事機密であったためか、公に”YF-12”のコードは与えられなかった) etc. Never heard before. Fake or real? (you can see same details with others in japanese web sites) Edited February 5, 2008 by gamlin Quote

Kronnang Dunn Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 (edited) The VFX-E303 kinda looks like the VF-0...!!! Edited July 28, 2008 by Kronnang Dunn Quote
VF5SS Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 That's just a fan labeling an early VF-1 design as a prototype. You can see the thing in the Macross Design Works book. Quote
