1* Let's see...there was the beginning, where Shin evades a Macross Missile Massacre in an ''F-14 Tomcat'', and later actually manages to get his Tomcat into a solid guns position on the SV-51! If only it weren't a TransformingMecha...
2** Then there's the VF-0's debut and pretty much every serious fight after that. Thrust vectoring doesn't even ''begin'' to describe some of the fights.
3* Shin Kudo gets one at the beginning of the first episode of ''Anime/MacrossZero'', where he out flies an Anti-UN Valkyrie, in a F-14. He only loses because the other pilot pulls tricks he has no idea are even possible (transforming). He then fights that pilot again in the last episode, with about one month's training in a VF-0 and once again manages to out fly his opponent.
4* All the dog fight sequences in Episode 5.
5* The Destroid Monster mk.I. When the Bird Human is seemingly unstoppable, the thing comes out and actually ''heavily damages it with four reaction shells'', proving that humanity is not completely defenseless against Protoculture's weapons. The only thing is that Shin had already calmed Sara and thus made the Monster's attack unnecessary, but major props to a man-made weapon system still managing to hold its own against a highly advanced Protoculture mech powerful enough to send a spacefaring civilization back into the stone age.
