queadol-magdomilla

A fictional massive alien spacecraft from the MACROSS series. It first appeared in the Choujikuu Yousai Macross TV series from 1982 and also appears in the more recent Macross Frontier TV series from 2008.

The Queadol-Magdomilla Class Fleet Command Battleship is a medium scale modular warship, often found in the role of a fleet command ship.

This spaceship is actually two individual vessels able to be separated to serve different functions.

The 1.3 km long forward section of the Queadol-Magdomilla (the "Assault Module") can detach from the 1.7 km long main vessel (the "Orbital Module") and act as an aerial assault craft for combat inside a planetary atmosphere.

This modular system allows the two sections to operate independently and both are heavily armed with multiple beam weapon and missile batteries. It also has several hangar bays carrying large mecha complements.

While the orbital module can still enter a planetary atmosphere like most Zentradi warships, that part of the ship has limited maneuverability.

Although this class has been in use for hundreds of millennia (as has most of the Zentradi fleet) the Queadol-Magdomilla was born in the middle stages of the Protoculture Stellar Republic's Schism War and is thus one of the newer ships of line.

A ship of this class was used by Quamzin Kravshera during Space War I. His vessel was one of the few Zentradi ships to have a complement of Glaug mecha in its hangar bays for Quamzin's personal use.

In real life it was designed by Miyatake Kazutaka in the early 80s.
