A transformable mecha from the Macross universe.
In the Macross Zero OVA series, the U.N. Spacy VF-0 Phoenix variable fighter was an advanced "atmosphere-only" prototype for the VF-1 Valkyrie. It served as a flight test unit and later (in 2008) as a frontline fighter, before the Valkyrie's initial mass production in November of the same year.
The VF-0 resembled the VF-1, although its legs were longer because the EGF-127 conventional turbofan engines used by the fighter were larger and bulkier than the VF-1's FF-2001 thermonuclear engines.
Weapons included a Gatling-style gunpod, missiles, bombs, and other munitions. Like the later VF-1, the VF-0 could also mount booster packs. Variants include the VF-0A, VF-0B, VF-0D, VF-0S and VF-0S Armored.
In real life it was designed by Kawamori Shouji.
