The Veritech Alpha Fighter is Earth's premier third-generation transformable fighter, serving the Expeditionary Forces through its mission in deep space and the reclamation missions to Earth. The fighter is fully space-capable, and is carried in great numbers on the Ikazuchi-class cruiser.

VF/A-6Z FIGHTER
However, the limited fuel tankage of this craft gives it short legs in space, a deficiency that led to the development of the Beta Fighter, to which this mecha can attach. In addition, the Alpha can not reach suborbital altitudes on its own, and also required the Beta for this.

ROOK BARTLEY VFA-6Z
The Alpha also shines in atmospheric operations, where its small size and large thrust to weight ratio makes it a nimble and elusive target. This is made possible by two powerful main engines in the legs, powerful secondary engines in the forearms, and a dedicated VTOL thruster on the underside of the fuselage.

ARMAMENT
1 x 3-barreled 80mm pulse beam cannon in a gun pod.
Barrels usually fire. A second pod is possible, but not standard
2 x Light lasers in the Alpha's nose
4 x 78mm short-range missiles mounted in the head. Total ammunition supply is 8 missiles
60 x 190mm short-range missiles, mounted in single-shot surface launchers spread out along the fuselage
Introduced late in the 3rd Robotech War, the -Z variant, often painted red, and optimized for atmospheric operations, was distinct in the thick dorsal stabilizer on its head. Beyond the obvious change, the -Z was outfitted with more powerful engines, and was a more capable fighter in all modes and at all altitudes. It was expected that this fighter would become the standard variant late in the 3rd Robotech War, but this was superceded by the Shadowfighter, which did not incorporate the improved engines.

The Veritech Alpha Fighter (VFA-6H) was Earth's premier 3rd-generation transformable fighter, serving the REF through its mission in deep space and the reclamation missions to Earth. The -H version was marked with blue colouring and was typically flown by officers.
In 2035, the second generation of Alpha fighters were introduced. These would be the primary models which would participate in the Third Robotech War and endear themselves to the many Earth resistance groups which operated the units during the years of occupation. The -6H,-6I, and VE-6B models were specifically designed to replace the now decade old -6A, -6B, and VE-6A models respectively.
The newer models were now to take over space borne combat operations
from the conventional craft Although the second generation models had greatly enhanced space borne capabilities and delta-v, the
addition of the VF-12 Beta fighter as a booster for these Alphas allowed
them to fight together in space, separate for atmospheric combat and
recombine to allow the Alpha to escape back into low orbit for landings with the carrier ships.
The top speed of most second generation models 200 kph over their earlier cousins in the atmosphere and increased the space borne delta-v by nearly 100%.
FIGHTER MODE:
Length: 10.25m
Height: 4.60m
Wingspan: 8.20m

Max speed at 10,000m: 1900 kph
Max speed at 30,000m: 3000 kph
Guardian Mode
The Veritech Alpha Fighter is a transformable fighter, designed by Zor as a short-range aerospace superiority fighter. The fighter is fully space-capable, however, the limited fuel tankage of this craft gives it short legs in space, a deficiency that led to Zor designing the Beta Fighter, to which this unit can attach. The Alpha can not reach suborbital altitudes on its own, and also required the Beta for this.
ARMAMENT:
1 x 3-barrelled 80mm pulse beam cannon in a gun pod. Barrels usually fire. A second pod is possible, but not standard issue.
2 x Light lasers in the Alpha's nose
4 x 78mm short-range missiles mounted in the head. Total ammunition supply is 8 missiles
60 x 190mm short-range missiles, mounted in single-shot surface launchers spread out along the fuselage
GUARDIAN MODE:
Length: 8.00m
Height: 5.72m
Width: 4.84m
Max speed at low altitudes: 680 kph
The Alpha also shines in atmospheric operations, where its small size and large thrust to weight ratio makes it a nimble and elusive target. This is made possible by two powerful main engines in the legs, powerful secondary engines in the forearms, and a dedicated VTOL thruster on the underside of the fuselage.
The Alpha's weapons fit is extremely powerful for a fighter of this
size, and carries a destructive capacity comparable to a full squadron
of latest generation Earth aerospace fighters, combining a powerful beam
gun with a vast number of short-range missiles.
Depth: 5.25m
Height: 8.75m
Breadth: 4.84m
Max speed at all altitudes: 312 kph
Max walking speed: 120 kph
The Veritech Fighter (Variable Technology Fighter) is the name given to the series of transforming aerospace fighters designed by the Master Zor. Their most notable feature is the ability to transform from Jet mode—usually into a humanoid giant robot called Battloid and an in-between mode called Guardian, in which the nose and wings have a pair of "chicken walker" legs extending underneath enabling VTOL, and two arms reaching forward from the sides.
Battloid Mode / Removable Gun Clip
Production on the new models began in 2035 and continued well
into 2042 until they were replaced with the third generation VF-6S "Shadow
Alpha"
Cyclone Storage
The Cyclone a type of Veritech mecha armour system that was developed by the Robotech Expeditionary Force and used extensively during the Third Robotech War against the forces of the Invid.
Cyclone Folded In Storage
The Cyclone could switch to a mode called storage mode, in which it folded up into a cube that could be stored on larger vehicles like the Alpha Fighter. This feature made the Cyclone part of standard survival equipment for downed Alpha Pilots.

The New Generation, also called Invid Invasion, was originally the Japanese series Genesis Climber MOSPEADA. Mospeada was adapted by Carl Mack to become the third act of the American series Robotech.
Lieutenant Commander Scott Bernard
Scott is one of the new generation of Robotech Defenders who were born in outer space during the Expeditionary Mission to recover the location of the home of the Robotech Masters. He is a pilot in the Mars Division, one of the advanced interstellar battalions trying to reclaim the Earth from the clutches of the Invids. One of the few survivors from this advanced Robotech detachment, Scott is a moody character driven by revenge.
Scott VS. Korg
A natural but sometimes reluctant leader, Scott accumulates other Earth rebels on the way to Reflex Point and forms a resistance force that battles the Invid invaders as they make their way to the ultimate battleground. A moody but driven young man, Scott must relearn the value of friendship from strangers he has met as he moves toward his final goal.
FLIGHT AROUND YVR
In celebration over the Invid abandoning the planet, Lancer puts on one final show as Yellow Dancer, revealing his true identity near the end of the concert, much to the surprise of most of the audience. He dedicates a final song to Scott Bernard, who has chosen a new mission.
Scott takes to the stars in his Alpha, his new objective being the search for Admiral Hunter and the SDF-3, which has become lost during the Expeditionary mission to the home world of the Robotech Masters. Meanwhile, Ariel promises to wait for Scott's return...on her new home -- Earth.
