Space Battleship Yamato

Humanity’s first interstellar spaceship with a Wave-Motion Engine. The purpose of its great mission is to bring the Cosmo Reverse System back to Earth from Iscandar to save the planet. Reaching Iscandar is only the halfway point. Space Battleship Yamato itself has been reworked to become the Cosmo Reverse System, so to speak. It now prepares to make the 168,000 light year journey back to Earth. A provisional peace has been reached with Garmillas, and the way home should be peaceful…

Ki 8 Prototype Air Boat

A special craft designed for planetary exploration. It was placed on board Yamato on the pretext of being a spare vehicle. Its common name is Kouno Tori [White Stork]. It is housed in the dome under the ship (forward of the third bridge), which is equipped with a pressurized hangar. Only a few crew members know of its existence. It carries a crew of five and the autonomous ship’s analysis unit (AU-09).

It descends from space to a planet and can act freely in air, land and sea with prolonged exploration activity. Unlike a general spacecraft, its development concept from the beginning was as a planetary probe. Although its wings and robust hull make it an “airship,” its wheels make it an all-purpose vehicle with submersible capability. It is covered by a reinforced canopy over the cockpit, protected by a roll bar. Its variable retractable wheels allow it to adjust its tread pattern to match road conditions, and its six-wheel drive provides off-road performance on uneven terrain. The folding main wings are equipped with multipurpose units. It can also be retrofitted with various equipment, including observation sensors and firearms to remove obstacles.

Gelvades-class astro combat carrier Mirangal

This vessel’s performance is suitable for independent long-term strategy such as information gathering and frontier exploration, and also combines the combat characteristics of both a battleship and a carrier to harass enemy supply lines. The flight deck can open up and is provided with structures for battle centered on the bridge. Furthermore, the deck is equipped with concealed gun batteries.

Gelvades-class astro combat carrier Nirvales

An astro carrier of the 8th security fleet, equipped for battle. Its hull is colored green, which is appropriate for a Garmillas warship.

Guipellon-class multi-deck carrier Lambea

Multi-deck astro carrier that served as the second aircraft carrier in Domel’s task force. It narrowly escaped sinking in the Battle of the Rainbow Star Cluster and escaped from the battle area with the cosmo heavy bomber DBG88 Gallunt.

Medalusa-class annihilation heavy battleship Megaluda

Carries a super weapon that teleports strong destructive energy beyond the firing range of an opponent. It is a heavy battleship equipped with a “Flame Strike Gun.” Its bow contains a large weapon (5 batteries around a large-caliber barrel) that can redirect the compressed energy of the Flame Strike Gun for other purposes, such as shooting down long-distance targets without the need for teleportation. Also, a group of 9 forward torpedo tubes is concentrated in front of the turret base to make this a proud warship that greatly emphasizes the brutality of the Gatlantis forces. Furthermore, it can function as a carrier by deploying up to 12 attack aircraft from its V-shaped flight deck in the rear center.
