So this is a bit out of my comfort zone, but after 30+ years of in-action I thought I'd take crack at some hallowed ground. Maybe those of you who give a shit can tell me how I've done...Let me know what you think of my take on The REF! You want to see more? Say so! ; )

Max Sterling, Commander Aerospace Wing Expeditionary Forces (CAG-EF), stands by his newly minted VFA-6A, successor to the VF-1 in RDF/REF service in his CVR-1P Armor (P for Pilot use). Performance trials would show the "Alpha" fighter, as it came to be known, outclassed its predecessor the Valkyrie, and blew away the Army of the Southern Cross' economical VF-8 Logan. The Pioneer mission to Tirol departed supremely confident it had the Mecha it needed to carry its mission the the Master's homeworld. In practice, the first generation Alpha fighter would acquit itself well, mainly due to leadership and training, despite being designed to face the Master's Bioroid Mecha on the advice of Lords Breetai and Exedore. In fact they were found to be be superior mecha to the weakened forces of Tirol, but soon proved inadequate against hordes of the Invid Regent's Scouts and Shock Troopers. Later Alpha developments would see an increase in Mini-missile load-outs and advanced multi-ship targeting that would achieve parity against the swarm tactics of the Invid. Many early battles between the REF's Pioneer Forces and the Invid's occupational forces would demonstrate the weaknesses of the first Alpha Fighters, and necessary improvements would follow as the war against the Invid continued.
