  Veritech fighter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The name is derived from variable fighter, the term for transforming fighters used in The Super Dimension Fortress Macross (the series from which the first part of Robotech was adapted).
The nomenclature for Veritech Fighters mostly follows that established in the 20th century by the US Army Air Force and its successor service, the US Air Force.

 ROBOTECH: REF Veritech Mecha - Beta Fighter   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Curiously enough, the Veritech Beta Fighter owes its creation to the union of two independent projects, both of which were intended to compensate for the deficiencies of the Alpha prototypes.
Consequently, nearly all Beta fighters went to the Navy, and it was not until 2046, after the end of the Third Robotech War, that the Planetary Forces had their first Beta squadron operational.
The combined mecha is referred to as the Elint Legioss reconnaissance Veritech and rapidly replaced both the aging Cat's Eye and Elint Valkyrie aircraft in use by the REF due to its drastically increased survivability and additional role as a Wild Weasel in seeking out and destroying sensor installations.

 VF-1VS Super Vindicator
While the fighter was only produced in relatively small numbers, it was preferred by many pilots and most leaders were offer the fighter as their main fighter.
Because the fighter is mostly unshielded from the effects of radiation and hypervelocity atomic particles, the fighter is not operated at speeds exceeding 20% of the speed of light.
If the fighter uses more than half of its reaction mass when accelerating, the fighter will be unable to decelerate fully and the fighter will normally only use a third or less of its fuel on accelerating so it does not run into a problem.

 ROBOTECH: Veritech Mecha - Omega Fighter   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Projections showed that the new mecha should have an extended and longer ranged weapons package to achieve the desired degree of superiority over the Gosu, which was a design goal after the Alpha was proven to be about equally matched against the Gosu.
The missile battery would also have to be more versatile than that on board the Alpha, because the new order of battle called for fewer large ground-attack fighters like the Beta, whose attack missions were to be gradually taken over by the smaller fighters and the new Omicrons.
The performance of the Omega is therefore tailored to follow the example of the famous first Veritech, with Alpha-level maneuverability thrown in for good size.
