The VT-1 Super Ostrich Valkyrie was a trainer variant of the standard VF-1A Valkyrie manufactured by Northrom for U.N. Spacy. This two-seater version utilized a customized FAST Pack system that did not include any missile launchers. Due to its training focus, the VT-1 lacked any armaments. In addition, the VT-1 featured a different head design from the VF-1A. During Space War I, Hikaru Ichijyo took Lynn Minmay on a joyride in a VT-1 to see the rings of Saturn up close. Unfortunately, the two were captured by the Zentradi, along with an RC-4E Rabbit shuttle carrying Misa Hayase and Lynn Kaifun and VF-1S Strike Valkyrie pilot Roy Focker. The humans escaped during a Meltrandi attack but were separated, with Hikaru and Misa using the VT-1 and getting caught in a fold that sent them to Earth. Discovering that the surface had been annihilated by the Zentradi, Hikaru and Misa surveyed the world until they found the lost Protoculture city Altira and sent a signal to the Macross.
