  • Welcome to Episode 8 of Mecha Facts. In this episode, I will be discussing the specifications, history, and lore of the Mass Production Heavy Variable Fighter the VF-171 Nightmare Plus and it's variant the RVF-171 Nightmare Plus from the Macross series.

    To be honest this is my most favorite VF next to Metal Siren. I really hope that in the future Macross series this will be given a special series.

    I prefer the YF-19's robot mode, but god damn the VF-171's fighter mode is just ''chefs kiss''

    What ever happened to macross. I know they wrote theme selves into a corner due to the end of delta, but they have ways around that. They did it before with Macross 2.

      Last I recall, Macross Delta was being condensed into 2 feature films similar to Macross Frontier movies. However, that was the last I heard of it then my news on Macross have been pretty minimal...

      @@AModelerInCollege Thank you. I have a lore question now that I have your attention. Why dose the villain when they attempt to control a population with the song "Do You Remember Love" which dose little more than give you euphoria if it isn't amplified. While Sharon Apple created multiple songs specifically designed to do such a thing such as "Information High".

      I’m not entirely sure... it was possibly explained in movie/show or a separate mechanical novel on why this was the case. I haven’t dived into Macross lore since creating this episode, so sorry I wasn’t able to answer your question

    The F-117 Nighthawk was not a fighter, even though it has a designation of “F”. The USA wanted to confuse their adversaries by making them think it was an advanced fighter and not a strategic bomber, which gave them them an edge of surprise bombing runs deep into enemy territory.

      Well this is what you will see a lot in the world of Macross. The original vf-1 or vf-0 was the glorified F-14 Tomcat.
