Seriously speaking, though, is that a third wing I see on the VF 171? What could it be for?
You are right it looks like a new class, its the first time I actually see a battleship with this kind of gunbarrels in Macross; it looks like a naval battleship reconverted for space use.Gundam Genki wrote:I think this falls under 'mecha' as well... the ships.
I only noticed after rewatching the episode, that all standard habitable 'city-ships' are connected. If that's one ship... the entire thing's probably well over 20 km long!!!![]()
Also, it might be me, but the first ship destroyed by the alien BFG looked kind of new. If I watch several battle scenes in slow motion, a lot of ships seem new or adaptations of older ship-classes...
One possible translation is "Vajra".halo wrote:I don't know if this has been mentioned on any of the English speaking forums but the 'alien' mech is up on the official site under the Mechanic section. It's apparently called the Bajura (バジュラ). No info other than a pic is given though.
