The Macross 7 is the leading ship of the 37th Long Distance Colony Fleet, consisting of two parts; the City 7, where civilian populace live, and the Battle 7, a detachable battlefortress that can transform into a massive humanoid fortress. It is part of the New Macross Class line of ships.

Parts[]

The ship Macross 7 is the seventh model of the New Macross class of deep space colonization ships. It consists of two parts:

  • City 7: an enormous, egg-shaped spacecraft with a pressurized dome containing an entire city. It has a clam-like "lid" which can close over the dome to provide protection during attacks (known as "shell down"), and whose inner surface projects an image of an Earth-like sky. The city's mayor is Milia Fallyna Jenius. Smaller pods attached to the main city-ship contain additional city blocks, including the unregistered block Akusho, a district of crumbling, empty buildings in which Basara Nekki lives.
  • Battle 7: a battle carrier (similar to the Uraga-class carrier), it can launch squadrons of variable fighters, including the elite Diamond Force, when attacked. It can also detach and transform into an approximately three-quarter-mile-high robot, equipped with a powerful Super Beam Weapon that can decimate an enemy battle fleet. The super beam weapon is mounted in gunship which Battle 7 holds in its right "hand". The captain is Maximilian Jenius, with advice provided by Exsedol Folmo, whose (macronized) head is visible on the bridge. Ship is said to carry 450 x variable fighters, including VF-11C Thunderbolt, 3 x VF-17 Nightmare, 3 x VF-19 Excalibur, 2 x VF-22S Sturmvogel II and 250 other small support craft.

Armaments & Crafts[]

  • 1 x OTEC-manufactured Gunship Main Gun super beam weapon, 100 degrees elevation when latched to holder grip, less than 1 shot/60 min, capable of independant maneuvering (mounted forward ventral hull in Carrier mode, starboard manipulator in Attack mode); folding hand grip; when used in hand-held shooting mode, energy is supplied from Battle 7; Macross Cannon can operate independently, but function and output will be greatly restricted; Macross Cannon energy consumption is intense and independent usage is limited to 2-3 times.
  • 4 x Beam Weapons (mounted under stealth covers facing forward in Carrier mode, shoulders facing forward in Attack mode)
  • many x OTEC-General Galaxy stealth concealed-unconcealed-type converging energy cannon ports
  • many x Bifors CIWS beam Phalanx
  • many x Anti-fleet anti-planet super-long range reaction warheads (mounted in extending rack launchers and embedded slot launchers)
  • many x Anti-ship High-maneuverability missile system

History[]

Most of beginning episodes, Macross 7 was operated as both home and headquarter of the 37th long-distance colonization fleet that took part in the Protodeviln War in 2045. For most of history, see Macross 7. After Battle 7's destruction in the final episode, it was rebuilt.
