VF-1 Valkyrie (Robotech Defense Force)
Wallpaper Description:
The Veritech fighter is a fictional transforming walking machine in Robotech. In the late '90s, an official backronym was invented by Harmony Gold for the term \"Veritech:\" Variable Engineering and Robotic Integration TECHnology. 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). Veritech is sometimes abbreviated \"VT,\" though mostly in the Jack McKinney novel adaptations.
In the fictional series Macross and its English adaptation Robotech, the first mass-produced variable fighter (Macross) or Veritech fighter (Robotech) is called the VF-1 Valkyrie. The VF-1 was initially designed by the legendary Japanese mecha designer Shoji Kawamori (with contributions by his Studio Nue partner Kazutaka Miyatake) in 1980-1982 to be the centerpiece mecha design of the anime series The Super Dimension Fortress Macross (1982-1983). In Robotech, the VF-1 is often referred to as the \"Veritech Fighter\" or \"VF-1 Veritech,\" but its official popular name \"Valkyrie\" is used in a few infrequent references.
