!!Ozma Lee
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ozma.jpg]]
-->''Voiced by:'' Creator/KatsuyukiKonishi

The top ace in the S.M.S. and leader of Skull Squadron, designated "Skull-1", Ozma holds the rank of Major and is an experienced former New UN Spacy (N.U.N.S.) pilot, currently using a [=VF-25S=] Messiah. He's an avid fan of [[Anime/{{Macross 7}} Fire Bomber]] and often plays their songs in his car or at home, even naming some of Skull Squadron's battle formations after their songs (i.e. "Planet Dance" and "Totsugeki Love Heart"). Although laid-back and careless on the outside, he knows when to be serious, and believes the real duty of a soldier is to care for his subordinates and civilians. He's somewhat overprotective of his younger sister Ranka, and lies to her about his work so she won't have to worry about him, telling her he has a desk job in a company's personnel department.

Ozma is non biologically Ranka's brother; in fact, he adopts her following the tragic attack by the Vajra on the 117th Large Scale Research Fleet 11 years before the story begins. He constantly blames himself for failing to protect the fleet and Ranka's family. To end, he willingly takes her in and ensures the same won't happen to her again, even if it means he must take the bullet to do so. Years prior, he pursued a romantic relationship with N.U.N.S 2nd Lieutenant Catherine Glass, but broke it off, which makes their current working relationship aboard the Macross Quarter a little tense at times.
-----
* AcePilot: He's generally shown as a better pilot that Alto, and in supplementary materials has even put up a fight against [[Anime/MacrossPlus Isamu Dyson]], though he didn't win.
* BadassCreed: ''"Sorry, but I'm not an adult'': '''I AM A MAN!"''' ([[MemeticMutation No]] [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall punches]]).
** ''"Who cares about that!? If [[NukeEm reaction warheads]] don't work, use [[MacrossMissileMassacre missiles]]; if missiles don't work, use [[MoreDakka guns]]; and if guns don't work...even if I have to have have to use my teeth and nails in the end, I'll continue to fight! '''I'LL DAMN WELL FIGHT!!''' '''OUT OF THE WAY'''!"''
* BigBrotherInstinct: Adopted Ranka and filled the role of an older brother, due to feeling guilty for not saving her family. He does let go once he figures Ranka's old enough to decide and accept on her choices, [[spoiler:even if it means running away from the Frontier fleet]].
* BigDamnHeroes: Ozma practically lives on this trope.
* CoolCar: His Lancia Delta Integrale; it also bears the same color pattern and skull logo that's on his [=VF-25S=].
* DeathByIrony: He's about to start a relationship with Catherine Glass again, he's in a near-impossible fight against a Vajra, and his cockpit is apparently holed. Oh yes, and a pineapple-based dessert is thrown in for good measure. [[spoiler: He '''''SURVIVES'''''!]]
* EvenTheGuysWantHim
* {{Expy}}:
** Shares a lot of features with [[Anime/SuperDimensionFortressMacross Roy Fokker]], [[spoiler: except the curse of the pineapple cake]].
** Also shares a lot of features with [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Kamina]], [[spoiler: although, he SUCCESSFULLY subverts even death...]]
* ItsAllMyFault: He blames himself for being unable to save Ranka's family, though an impartial observer would probably say he did very well saving ''anyone at all'' from that debacle (he and Ranka were among a tiny handful of survivors out of the entire colony).
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Most of the time he's being a jerk to either knock some sense into Alto's thick skull, or because he's being overprotective of Ranka.
* MadeOfIron: Ozma's immune to the curse of the [[MemeticMutation pineapple]] [[TonightSomeoneDies cake]].
* NoseArt: The traditional skull of Skull Squadron painted on top of his VF-25. And his car as a matter of fact.
%%* PermaStubble
* ShutUpHannibal: To Brera in episode 17; bonus points for ejecting his Messiah's Armored Pack and gutting a Vajra with its knife to prove his point.

!!Klan Klein
[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/socialgroupicon_463_1258497891.gif]]
-->''Voiced by:'' Creator/MegumiToyoguchi

A blue-haired Zentradi female (Meltrandi) in command of the all-female S.M.S. Pixie Squadron, Klan holds the rank of captain, piloting a red Queadlunn-Rea. As the childhood friend of Mikhail Blanc, she's harbored a life-long crush on him that does not get reciprocated, most likely due to a certain genetic anomaly, as she appears her age as a fully-developed Meltrandi while macronized, but becomes physically a juvenile in her micronian form. This makes her the perfect target for Mikhail's mockery.
-----
* BadassAdorable: Badass when macronized, Adorable when micronized.
* BoobsOfSteel: Ironically, even in her macronized form, Klan ''does not'' have the largest bust size by proportion; that goes to Nanase.
* TheCaptain: Of her own squadron, putting her on the same level as Ozma.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Mikhail, even though he does his best to deny it.
* {{Deconstruction}}: A rather savage one of the TokenMiniMoe trope, showing how her being that trope gets in the way of her having a relationship with Mikhail.
* MeaningfulName: Klein is Dutch for small.
* PoweredArmour: Two of them: the first is her regular Queadlunn-Rea, while the second is [[spoiler: strapping herself with a variable fighter's jet engines, missile pods and gatling gun, turning into "Armored Klan", during the Vajra attack inside the fleet]].
** Hilariously, the latter one is a potential allied craft in the Macross Frontier PSP games. Yes, [[spoiler: Your ally is a Meltrandi in power armor.]]
%%* RapunzelHair
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: [[spoiler:Following Mikhail's death, she ''goes to town'' on the Vajra.]]
* ShipperOnDeck: Alongside Mikhail, Klan shares his opinion in regards to Alto's LoveTriangle. But like Mikhail this will favour Sheryl than Ranka.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Hoo boy... there are probably several dozen ways one can romanize "クラン クラン". "Klan Klein" or "Klan Klan" seem to be the most common.
* StarCrossedLovers: With Mikhail.
* UnresolvedSexualTension: With Mikhail.

!!Nene Rora & Raramia Reremia
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pixies.png]]
-->''Nene is voiced by:'' Creator/AyaHirano
-->''Raramia is voiced by:'' Kana Oomuraa

[[ThoseTwoGirls Those two Meltlandi]] who are usually with Klan, Nene's the tall (by Zentradi standards) pink-haired girl and Raramia the redhead. Together, they are part of the all-female S.M.S. Pixie Squadron. While Nene's calm, gentle and kind, Raramia has a rather intense gaze and very {{Bifauxnen}}.
-----
* DarkSkinnedRedhead: Raramia.
%%* GentleGiant
* OneeSama: Nene addresses Klan this way.
* TheQuietOne: Both, actually, due to their lack of screentime.
* TheVoiceless: Specifically Raramia.
* {{Redshirt}}: [[spoiler:Raramia. She gets KilledOffForReal after a random, direct hit in battle against the Vajra. She's practically more redder than Henry Gilliam, since he had a voice actor, and Raramia never uttered a single line]].
%%* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Pink Hair]]: Nene.

!!Canaria Bernstein
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/doc18.png]]
-->''Voiced by:'' Creator/HoukoKuwashima

A 1st Lieutenant in the S.M.S. and the pilot of Skull Squadron's VB-6 König Monster variable bomber, Canaria also serves as the S.M.S.'s military medic. Although she rarely speaks, Canaria offers advice with great weight, often. She's the only character who's married and has a young son named Eddie.
-----
* ActionMom: Being a mother certainly doesn't slow her down when nuking the enemy.
* {{BFG}}: König Monster has 4 of them on its back.
* BoobsOfSteel: Piloting the König Monster gives her more firepower than the rest of the squadron combined, and she uses it well.
* CombatMedic: Taken UpToEleven, who's skilled in medicine and an exceptional pilot of the ''very'' aptly named König Monster.
%%* DarkSkinnedRedhead
* FluffyTheTerrible: Her callsign is "Rabbit 1".
* MoreDakka: König Monster. Aside from the cannons, it has 2 sets of 4 missile launchers on each arm.
* NoseArt: Paints the Monster with pinups of Sheryl and Ranka.

!!Bobby Margot
[[quoteright:311:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bobby25.jpg]]
-->''Voiced by:'' Creator/KentaMiyake

The highly skilled helmsman of the Macross Quarter, Bobby appears stern, but he states he's "just like a girl inside". Prior to serving the S.M.S., he was a hair stylist and make-up artist, and was known in its circle as a legend. Bobby's well-liked by the female crew members for his good understanding of others, due to his very open homosexuality and not-so subtle feelings for good friend Ozma, though he claims to be "way beyond the point in life where [he] needs [his] love to be reciprocated". Bobby tends to constantly criticize the N.U.N.S.'s actions on a regular basis, and while very feminine, calm and soft-spoken during times of peace, he will delve into a serious, daring and aggressive attitude during combat. Like Ozma, Bobby's also considered a fan of [[Anime/{{Macross 7}} Basara Nekki]], as he refers to him as "Basara-sama".
-----
* AgentPeacock: He's quite open about his leanings. Doesn't slow him down one bit.
* BridgeBunny: Since Bobby is...
* CampGay: Enough to count for the above trope.
* GameFace: Normally has a soft expression to go with his CampGay-ness, but when it's time for business on the Quarter, he starts to go...
* HotBlooded: '''HOLY FUCKING SHIT'''!
* RatedMForManly: Whenever he controls the combat mode of the Macross Quarter.

!!Monica Lange, Mina Roshan & Ram Hoa

-->''Ram is voiced by:'' Creator/KaoriFukuhara

The three female bridge operators of the Macross Quarter, Monica's in charge of the Quarter's main search radar and chief operator, while Mina's responsible for internal warship status management and Ram's responsibilities include communications and main weapons control.
-----
* BridgeBunnies: Continuing the grand tradition of the ''Macross'' franchise.
* ControlFreak: Ram...maybe: she's a person of not too many words, but she tends to classify everything that she comes into contact with on a regular basis.
%%* {{Meganekko}}: Ram
* OnlySaneWoman: Compared to Mina and Ram, Monica takes a more serious stance in her duties.
* TeenGenius: Mina has an IQ of 180, but has trouble adjusting to the pace of her operating buddies.
* TokenMinority: [[AllThereInTheManual According to the official site]], Mina is of Indian ancestry.

!!Jeffrey Wilder
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jeffrey_wilder.jpg]]
-->''Voiced by:'' Creator/ToruOkawa

Captain of the ''Macross Quarter'' and de facto field commander of the S.M.S., Jeffrey ranks as a colonel and was originally a pilot in a UN Forces aircraft carrier early during his career. A seasoned veteran, he has a horizontal scar across his face as proof of his previous combat experience. Though a very polite officer, he can become highly mischievous when the situation requires it.

!!Howard Glass
[[quoteright:130:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/howard_glass_21660.jpg]]
-->''Voiced by:'' Creator/TomomichiNishimura

The fourth elected president of the New United Nations Government and also the administrative director of the Macross Frontier fleet, President Glass's administration was responsible for the creation of the Frontier colonial fleet. As president, he shoulders all political decisions to ensure the security and well-being of his citizens. He is also Cathy's father.
-----
* BadassMoustache: [[spoiler:Unfortunately, points are taken off because he's considered...]]
* DumbIsGood: Too naive regarding the Vajra and the threat they're considered.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He tries very hard to be this.

!!Catherine Glass
[[quoteright:264:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4_1521.jpg]]
-->''Voiced by:'' Creator/SanaeKobayashi

A N.U.N.S. General Staff 2nd Lieutenant attached to the S.M.S. Macross Quarter, Catherine's also President Howard Glass's daughter. Both beautiful and intelligent, Catherine was a former Miss Macross winner, and later went on to serve on the judging panel in the 2059 contest Ranka participates in. After having graduated from university with honors, she joined N.U.N.S and is fast-tracked into the elite. Though a very competent officer, she sometimes lacks flexibility. She has a relationship with Leon Mishima without her father's knowledge and was formerly in a relationship with Ozma before that, until they broke it off under mutual circumstances.
-----
* ChristmasCake: And mentioning it will get you laps around the SMS base in an EX-Gear.
* {{Expy}}: She shares a lot of qualities with [[Anime/SuperDimensionFortressMacross Claudia LaSalle and Misa Hiyase]].
* NiceGirl: Despite at times rubbing wrong with the SMS team and their unorthodox fighting style, she's polite and more than willing to work together.
* {{Tsundere}}: Type B towards Ozma.

!!Leon Mishima
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/3486.jpg]]
-->''Voiced by:'' Creator/TomokazuSugita

President's aide and Chief of Staff, Leon's a very calm and composed man, and Glass's closest associate and confidante. He's a constant source of all political trends throughout the Frontier fleet, and is in a secret relationship with Catherine.

As it turns out, he's part of the conspiracy behind the Frontier and Galaxy Fleets, and is heavily involved in the Vajra war from the beginning.
-----
* EvenEvilHasStandards: After finding out about how twisted Grace truly was, he was having none of it.
* EvilChancellor: Not much of a surprise, considering the numerous [[spoiler:{{Traitor Shot}}s]] on him from the beginning of the series.
* ObviouslyEvil: Yeah... shifty eyes, talking of peoples as if they were tools, incredibly smug? His anime Pageboy cut doesn't do a thing to make him look less like a villain.
* ProfessionalsDoItOnDesks: Implied this is an early episode with Cathy.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: [[spoiler: Even when he usurped the government, he genuinely tried to fight the Vajra with all he had.]]
* SmugSnake: Very smug, but even more so in [[TheMovie The Movies]].
* UnwittingPawn: Ultimately, he's just a pawn in [[spoiler:Grace's and the Galaxy's]] schemes, no matter how in control he thought he was.
