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 The space forces are in command of the local forces unless it is superseded by the N.U.N.S headquarters back on Earth (via hyperspace communication links).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:
“It is very perplexing how an intrepid frontier people, who fought a wilderness, floods, tornadoes, and the Rockies, cower before criticism, which is regarded as a malignant tumor in the imagination.”
—Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)
“Personal prudence, even when dictated by quite other than selfish considerations, surely is no special virtue in a military man; while an excessive love of glory, impassioning a less burning impulse, the honest sense of duty, is the first.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
