Enemy Battlesuit
From Macross Compendium
Program
Enemy battle suit encountered by Isamu in Episode 1. Possibly dissident Zentradi but the details are unknown.
The battle suit is a type of power suit like the Nousjadeul-Ger and the Queadluun-Rau. It is used by remaining Zentradi in the frontiers of space. It has been used since the Stellar Republic civil war, but it is not certain whether or not independent development occured at a time of insurrection on a emigrant planet. Although the specifications are unknown, conjecture from combat with VF-11Bs, it considered to have superior performance.
