Alexey Kurakin.

This is a very important person in the history of the MACROSS world.

After the ASS-1 space battleship, the predecessor of SDF-1, crashed into the earth, Alexei Kurakin, one of the top scientific research and technical personnel on earth, was among the first batch to board the ASS-1 for exploration.

, research staff.

Subsequently, after humans developed the OTM deformation structure technology using the technology obtained from ASS-1, Alexey Kurakin, the chief designer of a trilateral joint development project, successfully developed a new generation of OTM using this technology.

Transformable fighter aircraft - SV51.

At the same time, SV51's participation in the war was much earlier than that of the United Earth Army's VF-0.

Therefore, the SV51, which was born from the joint development project of the three countries headed by Alexey Kurakin, dealt a huge blow to the United Earth Army during the Unification War. It was not until the VF-0 of the United Earth Army entered service that the situation was able to be reversed.

reverse.

Although, the United Earth Army finally won.

But it is undeniable that the existence of SV51 has greatly delayed the process of the unified war of mankind on earth, and also dealt a major blow to the unified earth army in all aspects.

As one of the people who participated in the battle where Birdman, an ultra-high-tech product left over from primitive civilization, Roy Fokker, who has fought against SV51 many times, knows this very well.

Even, it is unforgettable.

As one of the participants in that battle, D.D. Ivanov, who was Roy Fokker's instructor and a mercenary who joined the anti-United Army, drove the SV51 to fight with Roy Fokker until he

Shot down by Birdman.

"What's wrong? You say you don't care, but in fact you still care about the existence of SV51?"

Seryev moved his body and changed into a comfortable sitting position, then teased his best friend.

"No. I'm just worried about whether the SV51 can cope with the space battlefield. After all, it is no longer a unified battlefield battlefield."

Upon hearing this, Seryev suddenly fell silent.

The reputation of SV51 is indeed very famous for veterans like them who participated in the Unification War.

But it is undeniable that most of the SV51's airframes are designed for combat in the atmosphere.

But now, the battlefield that SDF-1 is facing is an endless space battlefield.

Seryev and Roy looked at each other, both of them skeptical.

He Mingzi also deeply agrees with this point.

However,

What appeared in front of him didn't seem to be SV51.

As the curtain opened, a dark gray fighter plane appeared in front of him.

Judging from its aerodynamic shape, it is not difficult to see that this is a deformable fighter designed based on the famous SU-27 in human history.

At first glance, He Ming almost blurted out the name of the fighter plane in front of him.

But in the next second, he closed his mouth.

Because, he discovered something strange in the rear part of the fuselage.

The body in the memory is relatively slender, especially the rear part. After deformation, it is a pair of slender legs.

But the machine body in front of me seems to be slightly shorter and thicker.

The rear part, especially where the engine is located, is more obvious.

"Oh? Did you see it?"

Hearing this, He Ming turned around and saw a middle-aged man with his sleeves rolled up, the first and second buttons of his shirt casually unbuttoned, and a document in his hand looking at him.

"Hello! What's my name?"

He Ming took the initiative to say hello.

The visitor nodded and handed the document in his hand to He Ming.

"You sign this document! Then, put on the driving uniform over there."

He Ming blinked, a little confused.

On the way here, the investigators didn't reveal much to him about their next arrangements.

However, after briefly mentioning that he would not be held accountable for piloting VF-1 without authorization, and asking him to cooperate with the subsequent arrangements, he was brought here.

Judging from the performance of the middle-aged man and the fighter plane behind him, is it possible that he wants to be the pilot of this fighter plane?

As if sensing He Ming's doubts, the middle-aged man shrugged his shoulders and immediately explained.

"It seems that those guys didn't explain the situation to you. So, in order to avoid some misunderstandings, let me explain the situation."

He Ming put down the document in his hand and nodded, indicating that he was all ears.

"Speaking!"

"I am Alexey Kurakin. Maybe you have heard my name, but that is not important. Right now, what you have to complete is to sign your name on this document and become it

, the pilots of SV52 participated in this war."

After a pause, the middle-aged man pointed at himself.

"Of course. In the next battle, I will participate in the maintenance and repair of SV52 as a maintenance division."

"SV52?"

He Ming had no problem signing the documents and becoming a fighter pilot.

That's why he came.

But, the SV52 is actually the fighter plane behind him?!

In He Ming's memory, after the Unification War, the only two SV52s left in the world were taken over by the Unified Army, and were eventually destroyed together with the ground facilities under the invasion of the Geraldi star's main fleet.

"Huh? You seem surprised that SV52 will appear here?"

Kuragin smiled and saw He Ming's surprise.

"The two SV52s taken over by the unified army were not the real SV52, but the aircraft that the anti-integrated army perfected based on the original design. In my opinion, they were just an extended version of the SV51, or the final version.

."

As he spoke, Kuragin pointed at the gray fighter plane behind He Ming.

"What is behind you now is the real SV52. The real SV52 that was designed and manufactured based on the premise of space war."

"The real SV52?"

He Ming couldn't help but feel a surge of enthusiasm in his heart.

Maybe it’s because of the appearance of a legendary figure like Alexei Kurakin.

Maybe it’s because of the legendary SV52,

In short, He Ming abandoned hesitation at this moment, remained decisive, and quickly signed his name on the document.

Kuragin was a little surprised now.

Originally he hesitated about what to name, but he didn't expect that the other party signed his name right away.

Kurakin did not know that after the first interstellar war, he would be the founder of General Galaxy, one of the cutting-edge fighter design and production giants that would influence the future air combat situation and control the design and manufacturing of several generations of cutting-edge fighter aircraft.

Naturally, I don’t know why He Ming dared to be so decisive.

"Okay! So, do you want to start testing now? Or do you want to talk about actual combat?"

He Ming handed the document to Kulagin.

Kuragin blinked, calmed down his inner surprise, and nodded.

"Now we need to conduct an ignition test. After you change into your driving suit, get on the SV52 and prepare to start the engine. I will guide you from the side."

"clear!"

After explaining the matter clearly, both parties acted very quickly.

Not long after, He Ming, who had changed into his driving suit, had already sat in the cockpit of the SV52.

Just like sitting in the cockpit of VF-1 before, as long as He Ming's eyes touch the buttons, screens, etc. in the cockpit, he will have a feeling of innate knowledge, fully aware of their existence and significance.

[Confirmed that the aircraft can be boarded: SV52.]

[Confirm driving skills, complete.]

[Confirmed that the aircraft can be boarded: SV52 has not yet been registered.]

[Confirm registration affiliation?]

The mysterious voice appears again, which brings up the question that He Ming cares about.

Belonging registration?

Is this taking SV52 as its own?

"How does it feel?"
