Macross Frontier Military
The New United Nations Spacy (N.U.N.S. or NUNS) is the current galactic military force during the time of Macross Frontier (2059); it is the successor organization to the old UN Spacy. The space forces are in command of the local forces unless it is superseded by the N.U.N.S headquarters back on Earth (via hyperspace communication links).
The Macross Frontier's fleet consists of warships of various types and sizes. Although the series has never specified the actual amount of these escorts, it is estimated at more than a dozen. Throughout the show the fleet was nearly decimated by constant attack by the Vajra.
The ship Battle Frontier (also known as Battle 25) acts as the flagship and command center for the Macross Frontier military and the government officials.
The military resources have been thought to be more restricted and limited prior to encountering the Vajra due to the use of Private Military Providers such as S.M.S. (Strategic Military Services) by the Colony fleet's civilian government as part of cost saving efforts.

Famous quotes containing the words frontier and/or military:
“What is an artist? A provincial who finds himself somewhere between a physical reality and a metaphysical one.... It’s this in-between that I’m calling a province, this frontier country between the tangible world and the intangible one—which is really the realm of the artist.”
—Frederico Fellini (b. 1920)
“The transformation of the impossible into reality is always the mark of a demonic will. The only way to recognize a military genius is by the fact that, during the war, he will mock the rules of warfare and will employ creative improvisation instead of tested methods and he will do so at the right moment.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
