so i decided to post the concept, and have the members of this forum develop off of it. not only will it result in a unique universe, it will be more complete and detailed than i could make it.
so here is the concept:
the SDF-3 world jumped, crashlanding in 1944 earth, June 7th. (where is up to you.).
now, a few starting points.
1) Germany did not ignore jet technology between 1939 and 1945, it continued to develop it and put forth the first effective combat jet fighter in 1943, with several less effective designs procceding(basically push the development of the ME-262 to an earlier. the americans and british rush their own designs into production to counter. (but you get results like the first jet fights over korea, the jets slaughtering the prop fighters and bombers until the allied jets become available.)
2) the REF uses its advanced tech to assist the allies in winning the war. (anyone ever seen the movie Final Countdown? that kind of thing)
how would this effect WW2 and after? does the Axis manage to aquire rudimentary robotechnology? or are they crushed entirely?
when Zor's fortress crashes and the zents arrive, what happens?
its up to you.
Here is my take:
(June 7th 1944)
-SDF-3 Defolds over earth on a crash course, No Liberation fleet to greet them and no Invid Ships in orbit.
-It is immediatly assumed that they are not in Kansas anymore but this place still looks like earth.
-With main thrusters down they attempt to do a splash down in the pacific and succeed.
-Allied forces (mainly the US given the cricumstances take a long time to respond and locat due to the lack of satalite Technology.)
(June 24th 1944)
-Many many many years before my birthday to the day. Also the contact date the SDF 3 met up with the Enterprise carrier group.
-SDF-3 has enough thrust to be suprisingly sea worthy, albeit slow.
-The Reaction the SDF-3 Crew have with the carrier group are mixed. Most are well receptive but the Alien crew is a bit edgy due to the lack of tolernace the humans of this era have towards other cultures.
-The Crew agrees to allow the Enterprise to escort her to San Fransisco harbor
(July 4th 1944)
-Yet another coincidence of dates, The SDF-3 comes ashore in San Fransisco Harbor.
-The President is there in person to greet Rick, Lisa, Breeti, Exidor, The Sterilings and other important people from the crew in person.
-In the process an attempted assasination was made. The target was unknown but most believe it was the president but multiple shots were fired.
-The Crew Morns the loss of Lynn Minmei Who took a shot after bolting in front of Rick (Whom She always had feelings for as we know).
(July 5th 1944)
-Funeral Procedures commence for Lynn Minmei. Zor delivers a speech about that brings even Breeti to tears.
-July 5 is now Known as the Minmei Memorial Day. Grave reads the dates "1994-1944" First recorded person to have lived Negative 50 years on the calender. (extraplating from the series as she has her 16th B-Day in space after the construction of the city in the ship)
(August 4th 1944)
-An agreement is signed to allow the REF rip up Nazi germany unabated
-REF Froces Rout all german Strongholds rather quickly in Europe.
(Aug 6th 1944)
-Word Quickly spreads throughout Europe that the US Single handedly routed the Nazis in France and Spain in a matter of Days.
-Lack of Live reporting sends people on a frenzy trying to figure it all out.
- SDF-3 Launches a Volly of Probes into Orbit creating a makeshift satalite grid.
(Oct 16th 1944)
-Berlin stormed and brought under allied control rather quickly. This has been known as the date that major combat has ended.
-Combat still continues in russia between the russians and the germans. German supplies stop coming in and Russia Routs them out rather easily shooting all those who surrender. At this point Stallin starts continuing his advance towards Germany.
-Hitlers Body found. Cause of death Suicide (Months before it actually happened in our time)
(Oct 25th 1944)
-SDF-3 Starts large Scale maintainence and repairs. All veritechs Stationed in an uncharted Air Base in Nevada which is under construction with REF Help.
-Stallin Announces his intentions to stop germany at all costs appearently not wanting to stop fighting. Being severly Miffed wanting revenge on Germany he is bent on retaliation.

-The general in charge then orders the advance. Cyclone riders and REF Soldiers await the Advance. Out Numbered but well prepaired
-Next is the bloodiest battle head on battle of WW2 (aside from the normandy) as the REF Forces Hammer anyone who crosses the line.
-Anyone who turns and runs are shot by their own general as per orders from Stallin.
-The Advance is quickly brought to an end, Thousands of casualties on the russian side as the REF had only 7 injuries all being accident related.
(Nov. 8th 1944)
-Stallin is ousted by his own people who then massecre the entire parliment house down to the man. A new leader Rises out of the ashes.
-Sergey Stolitznia announce Russian Freedom from Stallins Rule and people all over Russia Cheer at the news. It doesn't matter who rules them as long as it isn't this psychopath Stallin.

Only Condition is 4 years military service following their training. Service includes R&D and Manufacturing and repair.
(July 5th 1945)
-A Huge Concert takes place on Macross commorating Minmei. Most US Citizens never heard of her but all REF Crew attend this concert which includes Elvis and a few other popular singers of the era.
-At the same time Breeti in temporary command of the SDF-3 Picks up a satallite signal that shows evidence of Nuclear testing in Siberia and Mongolia. If this is true then Russia and China Both have Nuclear Arms Technology.
