VF-3000 Crusader（十字军战士）

设定图

背景資料：　　

在 VF-4 成為傑出的宇宙戰機之後，軍方開始尋找適合的大氣圈內用戰機來繼承 VF-1 。因此出現了由 VF-1 衍生出的雙座型 VF-3000 。 　身為重新設計的 VF-1 ，有比 VF-1 長的機身以及更多的變形用可動關節。在 Stonewell Bellcom 以及新中州重工航空部合併成新星工業後便以 VF-3000 為藍本發展了 VF-5000。

附記：

　　早在1985年，河森正治就設計了 VF-3000 ，作為次世代的先進戰機（Advanced Valkyrie）。只不過由於Macross TV 時間軸不夠，因此並沒有納入系列模型發行中。此項設計現在才在 Macross M3 中出現。

VF-3000 AEROSPACE SUPERIORITY VARIABLE FIGHTER

BACKGROUND

Also produced by Shinnakasu Heavy Industries, the larger VF-3000 bears many similarities with its predecessor. But whereas the VF-1J had been designed for multi-role operations, the VF-3000 was created around the sole requirement that it would be able to engage and emerge victorious against any previous aircraft design in an atmosphere, and come close to the VF-4 in spaceborne performance. Both engines were revamped and an advanced avionics suite was adapted into the prototype to allow for admirable performance in any environment. Unfortunately, while it had created a powerful fighter aircraft, Shinnakasu Industries' newest hatchling was tremendously expensive both to purchase and to maintain.

Due to the VF-3000's capabilities, a few squadrons were equipped with the new fighter despite its monumental costs. Most of these units were from the UNAF, with a few from the UNN which later withdrew from buying more in favor of the newer VF-10 produced by former partner (and now rival) company Stonewell-Bellcom. Production of the VF-3000, however, ended within five years of the delivery of the first aircraft. In total, only 118 planes had been entered into active service. Its legacy was carried on by the formation of the conglomerate aerospace giant Shinsei Industries and the VF-3000 which was to be born from the merger.

Two Shinnakasu Industries/Pratt & Whitney/Rolls Royce FF-2050J thermonuclear turbine engines. Four Shinnakasu Heavy Industry NBS-1 high-thrust and eighteen P&W LHP04 low-thrust vernier thrusters for additional mobility are mounted at key positions along the mecha's hull.

WEAPON SYSTEMS:

1. ROV-20 PULSE LASERS (2): The VF-3000's head turret is based on that of the VF-1J Valkyrie and posesses the same ROV-20 laser mounts. The laser on either side of the head of the mecha in battloid mode, and is located in the central dorsal section of the main body pointed rearward in fighter and gerwalk modes. The laser can only fire to the FRONT and SIDES of the fighter in these modes; it cannot be turned to fire along another arc.

    

   • PRIMARY PURPOSE: Anti-mecha
   • SECONDARY PURPOSE: Point Defense
   • RANGE: 4,000 feet (1,200 m)
   • DAMAGE: 1D6 M.D.
   • RATE OF FIRE: The laser can be fired in rapid pulses up to 4 blasts per round. A rapid fire blast counts as a burst of up to 4 shots.
   • PAYLOAD: Unlimited

   　

2. GU-11 ENHANCED MULTIPURPOSE GUN POD: The GU-11 gun unit carried by the VF-3000 is a redesigned version of that used by the VF-1 and other older fighters. The weapon is encased in a streamlined pod which provided better aerodynamic airflow than the standard GU-11. The gun fires armor piercing or high explosive 55mm shells stored in an internal ammo magazine.

    

   • PRIMARY PURPOSE: Assault
   • SECONDARY PURPOSE: Anti-mecha
   • RANGE: 4000 feet (1200 m)
   • DAMAGE: Does 4D6 M.D. for a short burst, 1D6x10 M.D. for a long burst, or 2D6x10 M.D. for a full melee burst.
   • RATE OF FIRE: Equal to the number of combined attacks of the pilot.
   • PAYLOAD: 600 rounds contained in a sealed rotating chain feed inside the barrel of the GU-11, equal to 60 short bursts, 30 long bursts, or 15 full melee bursts. The GU-11 CANNOT be reloaded in the field; once all ammo has been expended the gun must be taken to a UN Spacy base for reloading.

   　

3. WING HARD POINTS: Four fixed hard points are mounted on each wing of the VF-3000 and two more on the ventral fuselage for a total of 10 hardpoints on the fighter. These hardpoints can be used to hold a variety of different ordinance types, including long, medium, or short ranged missiles, or even the new intermediate-ranged high-maneuverability (IRHM) missiles (after 2040). One long ranged, one MRHM, 3 medium ranged, or 5 short ranged missiles can be mounted per hardpoint.

4. HAND TO HAND COMBAT: If necessary, the pilot of the VF-3000 can engage in melee combat rather than use a weapon. The variable fighter is extremely agile and can execute most typical hand to hand combat moves, such as punches, jump kicks, leap attacks, rolling with impacts, etc.

   DAMAGE:

   • Restrained Punch: 1D6 M.D.
   • Full Strength Punch: 2D6 M.D.
   • "Booster" Punch: 3D6 M.D. (counts as two attacks)
   • Tear or Pry with Hands: 1D6 M.D.
   • Kick: 1D6 M.D.
   • Leap Kick: 2D6 M.D.
   • Body Flip/Throw: 1D6 M.D.
   • Body Block/Tackle: 1D6 M.D.
   • Stomp: 1D6 M.D. (only effective against small objects)

STANDARD EQUIPMENT FOR THE VF-3000:

• AUTO-PILOT: The VF-3000 is equipped with a computerized auto-pilot. Although not as complex as those equipped on some other VFs, it can be reasonably trusted to get the fighter from point A to point B safely. The onboard computer will alert the pilot when the fighter is near its destination, and can also be set to automatically signal when sensors detect objects near the mecha.
• COMBAT COMPUTER W/HUD DISPLAYS: The VF-3000 is equipped with a combat computer that can store and analyze data during combat with hostile forces. The entire cockpit canopy of the VF-3000 is a large HUD display, which allows the computer to display large amounts of data to the pilot and even highlight enemies and missile attacks with overlaid graphics. The combat computer tracks and identifies specific enemy targets, and has a database of over 10,000 images stored in memory. The computer can identify and track up to 250 targets simultaneously.
• ESCAPE POD: The entire reinforced cockpit of the VF-3000 is a detachable escape pod that can be jettisoned when the mecha is destroyed. The ejected cockpit does not contain thrusters, but does contain a powerful locator beacon and an integrated life support system that can support the pilot for up to 24 hours after ejection. The pod is also equipped with parachutes in case of ejection in an atmosphere. The combat computer is programmed to automatically eject the escape pod if the mecha is destroyed (main body MDC reduced to 0), but this can be overridden if the pilot is feeling suicidal for some reason.
• EXTERNAL AUDIO PICKUP: Range: 300 ft (91.5 m). A sound amplification system that can pick up normal conversation up to 300 feet away.
• HEAT AND RADIATION SHIELDS: Special shielding prevents the penetration of life threatening heat and radiation. A radiation detection and alarm system are linked with the shields and will sound an alarm if there is a rupture in the shields and what the levels of radiation are.
• HOMING SIGNAL: The escape pod of the VF-3000 is equipped with a homing device that enables rescue teams to locate a disabled craft or ejected life pod. The range of the signal is 400 miles (640 km). Most UN Spacy ships and variable fighters can locate and track homing signals, and the onboard computers will automatically notify their pilots if such a signal is detected.
• LASER TARGETING SYSTEM: Range: 100 miles (160 km). Used for increased accuracy in the striking of enemy targets and is partly responsible for the mecha's strike bonus.
• LOUDSPEAKER: A loudspeaker system is built into the craft, which can be used to amplify the pilot's voice up to 90 decibels.
• OPTICS: INFRARED: Range: 2000 feet (610 m). This optical system projects a beam of infrared light that is invisible to the normal eye, but detectable by the mecha's sensors. The system allows the pilot to detect hidden/concealed objects by their IR reflectiveness. The beam will be visible to anyone with IR sensitive optics, however.
• OPTICS: NIGHTVISION: Range: 2000 feet (610 m). A passive light image intensifier that emits no light of its own, but relies on ambient light which is electronically amplified to produce a visible picture.
• OPTICS: THERMAL IMAGER: Range: 2000 feet (610 m). A passive optical heat sensor that detects infrared radiation projected by warm objects and converts that data into a false-color visible image. The system enables the pilot to see in the dark, in shadows, and through smoke, and also adds a +10% bonus to pilots using a tracking skill.
• RADAR: 200 mile (321 km) range.
• RADIO/VIDEO COMMUNICATION: Long range, directional communications system with satellite relay capabilities. Range: 600 miles (960 km) or can be boosted indefinitely via satellite relay.
• SELF-DESTRUCT: To prevent capture of a variable fighter by the enemy, the pilot can activate the VF-3000's self-destruct system, which will cause the fighter to explode after a delay of up to 60 minutes (time is set by the pilot). The explosive damage is contained within a 20 foot (6 m) area and inflicts 1D6x10 M.D. to everything within the radius of the explosion. All internal systems are obliterated. The escape pod will be automatically ejected prior to the explosion unless the pilot overrides the ejection sequence.
• STANDARD SURVIVAL KIT: All UN Spacy variable fighters come equipped with a portable survival kit. Inside the small reinforced box is a medium-sized flashlight, two hand flares, one rocket flare, a compass, infrared distancing binoculars, a small mirror, a pocket knife, dehydrated and concentrated food (can be stretched into a five day supply for one person) and basic first aid items (aspirin, bandages, disinfectants, etc.)
• TACTICAL LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEM: The VF-3000's cockpit is pressurized, and also provides additional air feeds to the pilot's flight suit that provides him with pressurized breathing. The UN Spacy flight suit also contains an upper and lower g-suit that promotes blood circulation even during high-g turns, thus decreasing the possibility of pilot's blacking out in combat.
