Sub Unit

The Sub-Units are used to form the Phoenix Brigandine.

In Thunder Force VI, the Sub Units are used on the RVR-00 Phoenix to form a major Extra Body Equipment known as the "Phoenix Brigandine".

List of Sub Units used on the Phoenix[]

  • Sub Unit A-Parts: It is the first part attached to the RVR-00. This unit includes the Photon Rifle, an Enhanced Radar dish, and Warp Engine used by the Phoenix to warp-cruise.
  • Sub Unit B-Parts: The Booster Engine, attached behind the A-Parts, ostensibly used for reaching orbit. It is also the Power Plant of the Over Weapons used by the Phoenix Brigandine. Once it is detached it can fire a destructive "rain" of laser beams on enemy forces.

Appearance[]

The Sub Units of the Phoenix only make an appearance in the Opening and Phoenix Take Off cutscenes. During both sequences, the Sub Unit B-Parts is used to launch the Phoenix Brigandine into space to support the Sword Fleet against the invading ORN forces. The RVR-00 detaches from the B-Parts, which unleashes a barrage of lasers in the midst of the battle, inflicting heavy damages on the ORN fleet. As the RVR-00 leaves the battlefield and activates the Warp Engine heading to the Galaxy Federation homeworld, then the A-Parts detach from the Phoenix, leaving the Photon Rifle and the radar dish equipped on the ship.
