Letzte Woche fertig geworden, wieder ein Group Build-Beitrag - in diesem Fall ein Bandai Snap-fit-Bausatz einer 1:100 VF-25 (eigentlich aus Macross Frontier), aber in meinem Fall mit einerm fiktiven Anstrich versehen; hier also eine Shinsei Industry VF-25F “Messiah”; ‘204’ der New U.N. Spacy (N.U.N.S.) SVFA-233 “Cloudbusters”; Windermere IV im Brisingr Global Cluster, während des ersten Unabhängigkeitskrieg von Windermere, 2060.

Some background:The VF-25 Messiah is one of the newest-generation variable fighters first used by humanity in 2059. The VF-25 was independently developed by Shinsei Industry / Macross Frontier Arsenal Original Development / L.A.I. from the YF-24 prototype as the potential successor to the VF-171 Nightmare Plus, the current main variable fighter of the New U.N. Spacy. The Messiah is armed with numerous offensive weapons that include a gatling gun, beam cannons, laser guns mounted in the head unit and a close-combat knife housed within the shield.
The VF-25 is built for multipurpose operation and can be customized according to the pilot and the characteristics of the mission. By exchanging multipurpose modules the variable fighter is able to operate as a fighter craft, an attack craft, a fighter-bomber, a reconnaissance craft and command craft for unmanned combat aerial vehicles.
For all previous generations of variable fighters it was nearly impossible for a Valkyrie to reach its full potential because there was no technology to overcome the limits of the pilot's body. The AVF Development Project in 2040 addressed this problem and it was overcome via the new Inertia Store Converter (ISC). This technology supports the pilot and reduces inertial forces upon the pilot such that the VF-25 can achieve mobility and combat capability that exceeds the limits of typical manned maneuvering.

Design Features include:
- 3-mode variable transformation
- Variable geometry wing with boundary layer control (BLC)
- Capable of attaining unassisted orbital velocity over an Earth-class planet
- ISC (Inertia Store Converter) from Shinsei Industry Macross Frontier Arsenal / LAI Company
- Active stealth system antennae
- Chaff/flare/smoke discharger system
- Thrust reverser equipped with three-dimensional maneuvering nozzles
- AA/AS/SF-06 integrated radar (mounted in nose)
- Linear actuators (provide faster electromagnetic transformation without contact between moving parts)
Another special feature in this new variable fighter is a cockpit designed to connect to the EX-Gear reinforced-exoskeleton (powered suit) designed to support the pilot. The cockpit furthermore offers a deployable auxiliary seat for a passenger.
Moreover, the power output, armaments, sensors and other systems have all been completely integrated which results in greatly enhanced performance. The VF-25 Messiah can also be fitted with an Armor Pack (no longer limited to Battroid mode only like the old VF-1 Valkyrie's Armored system) or a high-maneuverability Super Pack.

The VF-25 Messiah is currently in early deployment for field-testing in real combat scenarios with the Strategic Military Services (S.M.S.) and will later be deployed to the New U.N. Forces. The VF-25A is the mass produced version and other variants include the VF-25F Improved Air Combat Ability version, the VF-25G fitted with sniper weaponry, the VF-25S enhanced version for team leaders and the RVF-25 for enhanced electronic warfare operation.
The VF-25 saw interplanetary use with regular N.U.N.S. forces. After having shown its potential in the Varja conflict in 2059, one of the new type’s first major deployments took place in 2060 on Windermere IV, a planet in the Brisingr Global Cluster. Characterized by cold weather, Windermere IV is covered by snow most of the year. Its global government was similar to a medieval European monarchy of Earth. After war for independence, cease-fire was established in 2053, followed by an economic blockade of the Unified Government. At the end of the first Windermere War of independence, a dimension weapon, which had been prohibited from use, was dropped in the Carlisle district, causing extensive damage to civilians and the NUN Armed Forces stationed there. From this tragedy, the NUN Armed Forces withdrew from Windermere. The War of Independence came to a de facto cease-fire.
