The F203 Dragon II was a jet fighter manufactured by McNell Douglar for use by the U.N. forces. First deployed in 2003, the Dragon II implemented OverTechnology and was faster and more maneuverable than older designs still in service, such as the F-14A+2 Tomcat. Ventral jets allowed it to perform verticals and landings (VTOL). The Dragon’s armaments included two 30mm Gatling cannons and six self-homing missiles mounted under the wings. The Dragon served as the main fighter of the U.N. forces during the Unification Wars, and by 2009 was replaced with the new variable VF-1 Valkyrie.

I was just kid in middle school who liked mecha models. The impact this series had on me helped shaped the person I am today.
I’m unbelievably excited to say that I’m the ADR Director for Gundam : The Witch From Mercury.
Thank you @Crunchyroll for the opportunity! https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1620838641617743873
