Line 21:
* The ''[[Macross]]'' franchise is the king of this trope, featuring space planes that are also [[Transforming Mecha]]—but, perhaps surprisingly, they end up spending more time in plane form than mecha form. The earlier models of variable fighters generally required a lift from another craft to reach space but by the time of [[Macross Plus|Project Supernova]] they're capable of reaching orbit from planetary surfaces, even loaded down with an optional extra fold booster.
** [[Macross Frontier|Alto and Michel]] demonstrate the same again when escaping from Gallia IV
* In ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]'', the FF-3/FF-S3 Sword Fish is a multi-use interceptor that functions in high altitude and low orbit. It's successor, the [[TrasformingTransforming Mecha|Transformable]] [[Humongous Mecha]] MSZ-006C4 Zeta plus C4 is a [[Humongous Mecha]] version of it, and its [[Super Prototype]], the MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam is basically the real Space Plane version for both full range aerial and space combat, instead of only specializing in around the atmosphere.
