It's a safe bet that the battle suits keep theirs in the "backpack" so it's close to the engines it's powering and protected from the front by the body of the mecha. Wow...talk about an "ejection seat" for the pilot... O.o 16 hours ago, Seto Kaiba said: One of the virtues of Overtechnology-based thermonuclear reactors is that they can be made VERY small if need be. The one in the heart of the VF-1's FF-2001 engines are less than half a meter long and maybe a third of a meter in diameter. Basically, about the size of a standard 16" beach ball. One of the other, highly relevant virtues of Overtechnology-based thermonuclear reactors is that the reaction with standard fuel is aneutronic and the reaction itself produces little in the way of harmful radiation. The vast majority of the reaction's energy is released as heat, with byproducts including small amounts of neutrinos, positrons, and gamma ray photons. The reaction is contained by an intense artificial gravity field, so exposure is essentially a non-issue though the reactor is well-shielded by overtechnology super-alloys and a lot of the byproducts are still used to generate energy. Which probably solved a lot of energy issues for Planet Earth when they developed that (before the orbital bombardment, at least). Only trouble is that they made the fuel storage for the VF-1 too small and limited the fighter severely in space (expected a terrestrial war). I wonder how Space War 1 would have differed if the Unity Govt had planned for a spaceborne war? Quote

It shows how much forethought and planning the Kingdom of the Wind put into their preparations for their second war with the New Unification Government. The Aerial Knights knew going into it that the New UN Forces in the Brisingr globular cluster had significant advantages in training, experience, and sheer weight of numbers. Few Windermereans who served in the last Zentradi attack on the Brisingr cluster c.2059-2060 were still fit for duty, so their forces were mainly combat virgins banking on their greater natural abilities, the far greater performance of their Sv-262's compared to the New UN Forces' VF-171's, and weaponized Var syndrome to make up the difference. As we saw late in Macross Delta, once Walkure started actually supporting the NUNS the playing field leveled fairly quickly. Xaos is definitely not on par with Sol system-sourced New UN Forces... or even SMS.

Yeah, one big thermonuclear reactor was enough to meet the energy needs of Mars Base Salla easily enough. The VF-1's problem wasn't so much the expectation of a terrestrial war as the expectation that they'd be fighting infantry. The fighter's size was constrained by a perceived need to match a Zentradi soldier on foot, little realizing they don't fight that way. 15 minutes ago, Bolt said: I assume it's because Xaos is no SMS.

Yeah, Xaos is not as upscale a PMC as SMS, since their parent company is a conglomerate that started as a communications firm rather than one of the biggest interstellar shipping concerns in the galaxy. Where SMS was able to recruit from the wealthy and well-maintained Frontier NUNS and even pick up troops from the Earth NUNS in a couple places, Xaos's troops are mostly local boys from the Brisingr Alliance NUNS and not really up to the same standard.

Seto Kaiba Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 2 hours ago, NightmarePlus said: On the subject of the Unification Wars, is there any details of which countires comprised the UN and Anti-UN factions? "All" and "None", respectively. The Unification Wars weren't a single conflict. It was a collection of little brushfire wars, terrorist campaigns, and other armed interventions that sprang up all over the world for a wide variety of reasons, many of which were largely unrelated to each other. We're talking everything from nations fighting over territorial disputes down the scale to pre-existing ethnic or religious tensions boiling over, unrest caused by the immense economic toll the Unification Government's defense initiatives were incurring, or simply violent nationalist hissy fits over the whole idea of a supranational world government. The Anti-Unification Alliance wasn't an alliance of nations opposed to the Unification Government. It was a loose confederation of various regional violent nationalist hissy fit throwers from around the world who were opposed to the Unification Government for their own reasons and, in a moment of breathtaking cognitive dissonance, banded together into a global alliance dedicated to carrying out guerilla campaigns aimed at opposing or hindering the newly formed Unification Government. The Alliance had grassroots support and clandestine backing from some corporations, regional governments, and nations, but it doesn't look like any nation was willing to paint a target on itself by supporting them openly. It's noted that a fair amount of the Alliance's clandestine support came from the former Warsaw Pact nations, where the defense industry was salty about lucrative UN Forces contracts mainly ending up in the hands of companies based in former NATO nations and their close allies. This ultimately led to the Alliance's collapse. When they attacked the UN Forces in regions where their own supporters were, they ultimately lost that support. The tipping point was when they deployed reaction weapons against the UN Forces in central Russia and destroyed St. Petersburg. That poor decision led directly to the Russian separatists backing out of the Alliance entirely, costing them much of their support and leading to the Alliance's total collapse after the debacle on Mayan.

As in the Super Dimension Fortress Macross TV series, a portion of the Zentradi forces defected to the UN Forces while the remainder retreated as per standard practice when they lost their command ships either during or at the end of the battle. Many of the defectors and stranded Zentradi managed to live on Earth and integrated successfully into human society. Some tried and failed. One area where Macross II's timeline is different is that a small group of those who tried and failed were able to secure a ship and flee into deep space... resulting in the events of Macross 2036 and Macross: Eternal Love Song.

Dressykamila1 Posted April 17, 2021 Posted April 17, 2021 (edited) I wonder who's going to be an enemy in the new movie. It would be interesting if it turned out to be a megaroad-01 fleet or a macross galaxy (mainland), but it could also be some kind of rebellion on the part of Windermere (which I conclude from this guy similar to Keith in the trailer). It is known that the Delta six will be there, but I wonder if it will be a replacement for Messer or just a new, added mecha pilot. Funny, the ship in the picture looks like the one Sheryl came on . I am also curious whether the new macross f short movie will be a continuation of the anime or the movie. What do you think? I don't understand the end credits scene of Sayonara no Tsubasa where Sheryl wakes up and her earring glows. Does that mean Alto is alive? And after the throat operation, will Sheryl be able to talk, let alone sing? (Grace proposed laryngeal surgery, but she said she would rather die than stop singing.) I am also surprised that no one mentions Brera as a hero. If it weren't for him, the Frontier Queen might not have been defeated. Even Ranka was not surprised that Brera "disappeared" on the battlefield ... My final question concerns the new Macross class ships. Were they built and produced on this huge production satellite? Were the ships still produced after, for example, 2058 or was the colonization already stopped? Edited April 17, 2021 by Dressykamila1 Quote

What little information has been made available for Absolute Live!!!!!! has indicated that the antagonist in the movie is a new threat rather than the return of an old one.

Mind you, with Kawamori's loose attitude towards continuity in general the answer could well be "Both" or "Neither".

There has not been any explicit mention of new emigrant ships being built after the 2040s, but the answer is almost certainly "Yes". The New UN Government had multiple planets launching emigrant fleets in the 2040s and production was ramping up not down, so it's very likely that production of those ships is ongoing in the 2050s and 2060s, albeit with ever-more-modern designs.

As far as I know, the 117th Research Fleet's home port is not identified. In the Macross Frontier novelization, Manfred Brando was a part of the board of inquiry that investigated its destruction. That could be taken as circumstantial evidence that its home port was Earth since Brando and his company Critical Path were supporters of the Earth supremacist group Latence in Macross VF-X2. No involvement from Macross Galaxy is mentioned, but some of its surviving researchers (e.g. Grace) and its financial backers (Manfred) did move on to supporting the Macross Galaxy fleet. Quote

However, A VF-25 battroid is roughly the same height as Klan Klan in Frontier, despite being significantly taller than a VF-1. Also some of the individual zentradi are larger or smaller, and the scale of Regults to VF-1 makes zero sense if their pilots are the same size as a battroid VF-1. In short: anime magic happens, they are whatever size is right for the scene. Anything else is just justifications for animation inconsistencies. Edited April 19, 2021 by Sanity is Optional Quote

Hopefully the Glaug's interior is expanded backwards. The original Super Dimension Fortress Macross TV series had some issues when it came to accurately depicting the size of the Zentradi... no doubt in part due to the show's very limited budget and tight production schedule. They were often animated as being as tall or nearly as tall as a Battroid when in reality the Battroid should be much taller than the average for a Zentradi at 12.68m. It's also worth noting that there's a pretty significant disparity in average height among Zentradi based on their actual rank/role by design. Your average Zentradi soldier is between 9m (29.5ft) and 10m (32.8ft) tall... five times the height of a tall man (5'11"-6'7" in scale). There are also plenty of examples who are below the average height like Roli Dosel. Command types are built bigger. In human scale, Quamzin would be a whopping 2.37m (7'9"!). Vrlitwhai would be a whopping 270.8cm (8'11"!). Boddole Zer was even taller than they are. The Protoculture didn't really give a damn about making their mecha ergonomically sound, so you can safely assume some uncomfortable bending is involved. Quote
